19 Conclusions Delayed emergence reduces corn grain yields Greater than 5 days delay - significant yield reduction (homogeneity of plant stands) There was a linear reduction in yield with each day of delayed planting Plants delayed by 2,5, and 8 days continued to compete with border plants. By 12 days these plants competed less with border plants.

41 Summary  Use of RI NFOA resulted in a higher increase in NUE than RICV NFOA.  There was limited benefit of treating spatial variability at the high resolution (0.34 m 2, RICV algorithm).  NFOA approaches didn’t project high N rates that did not affect increased yields.  Use of RI NFOA resulted in a higher increase in NUE than RICV NFOA.  There was limited benefit of treating spatial variability at the high resolution (0.34 m 2, RICV algorithm).  NFOA approaches didn’t project high N rates that did not affect increased yields.
