Corn growers need to set a realistic corn yield goal
in order to make sound decisions on hybrid, seeding
rate, fertilizer application, and irrigation. The goal
should be the most profitable yield that can be
expected for a particular set of soil, climate, and
management practices. The yield potential is the
maximum production of a crop hybrid variety that can be
achieved in a given environment. To achieve the yield
potential, the crop must receive optimum levels of water
and nutrients and be completely protected against
weeds, pests, diseases, and other factors that may
reduce growth. Growth-limiting factors such as water
and nutrients determine the actual yield. Yield potential
is reduced by insufficient nutrients, water supply,
diseases, insects, weeds, lodging, or poor soil physical
traits and quality. Maximum yields obtained in corn
yield contests are reasonable estimates of yield potential
because corn is grown in these plots at high density and
nutrient supply, and full weed and pest control.
