Conclusion

At Kinston in Year 1, high levels of weed competition were observed and corn grain yields were reduced with subsurface banded lower fertility treatments. However, at the high rate topdress PL treatment corn biomass (Photo) and corn grain yield were greatest, where corn proved competitive with the weeds.
