Hello farmers it's ur boi Esude007, I am embarking on an experiment,to determine how many bags of maize you can get from just 4kg of maize... following good agronomic practices... Sit tight... As I hope to convince my company on the need to adopt maize as the major crop to produce.

Seedling: Sc612 yellow maize variety from seedco

Pre emergence herbicide: Lagon

Sit tight....

Network no allow me upload pix.... Precessing

Planting and pre emergence herbicide application done.... Planting was done at 2 seeds per hole, 25 cm inter row and 75cm between ridges... No seed wastage.... From our seed count, we got 4400 seeds in 1kg... So we are expecting 17,600 stands if all this wild birds no do anyhow angry angry angry

Who told you what you are doing is called an experiment?
1. What hypothesis are you testing?
2. What questions area you asking? And what answers do you expect?
3. What is your experimental design to carry it out? And for data collections?
4. What is your methodology to eliminate variation due to chance in the yield of 4kg of seedco 612?(we call it replications), how many 4kgs of maize plots did you have? To allow for comparison of mean yields?
5. Does the yield of 4kg of seedco 612 speak for the yields of other varieties?
6. Didn't seedco tell you how many kg of 612 (20_25kg) is needed to plant 1ha and expected yield range in tons or number of 100kg bags/ha?7. If these data/information are already provided by seedco Agronomists, why is this your charlatanry/ quackery necessary?
8. You should deduce how many 100kg bags your 4kg planting materials can give from seedco labels.
8. And who told you the best Agronomic practice for maize planting density is 2seeds/hole @ 25cmx75cm?
