Abstract:
Maize is a versatile crop, which allows from the production of whole plant silage to the harvest of grain maize, but it is necessary to verify the genotypes with these potentials according to the region of cultivation. Thus, the objective of this work was to identify the aptitude of maize for biomass for silage and grain in two years of second season cultivation in Dourados-MS.

Leafy hybrids represent a new direction in the breeding of silage maize.

Abstract:
Silage produced with the entire corn plant (Zea mays L.) has been an increasingly widespread alternative as bulky food for ruminants. One of the main care in crop management with a view to silage production is related to fertilization. In tropical soils (such as those in the south of the state of Pará) phosphorus is the most limiting nutrient for agricultural production. Because of the above, the present work aims to know the agronomic performance of forage corn cultivars in high and low phosphorus in the South of the state of Pará. For this, two competition trials of maize cultivars under con

Abstract Latvia is recognised as a marginal area for growing of maize (Zea mays L.), as years of high yielding can be broken by years with failures. The aim of this paper is to describe maize yield, dry matter (DM) content in fresh yield, and some other quality indicators in silage maize field trials at the Research and Study Farm “Vecauce” of the Latvia University of Agriculture (56° N), in relation to temperature and moisture conditions. The study was carried out for 15 years (1999–2013). In total, 217 maize hybrids, belonging mainly to the early-maturity group (FAO up to 220), were investig
