Grain Yield Prediction Estimating grain yield during the growing season is an appealing idea.Grain production depends on environmental conditions. The main |
|
environmental factors influencing grain growth are
weather,nitrogen (N) fertilization,plant population,tillage
etc.Understanding these factors, can help farmer increase grain
yields through crop management.
Of course, the best determination of yield potential for your farm will be by determining the yield components for your fields. The most common yield calculations include; kernels per ear, ears per acre, and kernels per bushel.Yield component method was developed by the Agricultural Engineering Department at the University of Illinois. Because this method can be used at a relatively early stage of kernel development, the Yield Component Method may be of greater assistance to farmers trying to make a decision about whether to harvest their corn for grain or silage. Yield "calculators" that count kernel numbers roughly estimate yield and produce yield estimates that are within 20 bushels per acre of actual yield. Obviously, the more ears you sample within a field, the more accurately you will "capture" the variability of yield throughout the field. |
