EFFECT OF WATER SUPPLY AND SOWING DATES ON CORN YIELD OF HYBRIDS GROWN DURING OFFSEASON

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of water supply and sowing time on yield and yield components of two corn hybrids grown during offseason in the region of Dourados-MS, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks in sub-divided plots, with four replications. In the main plot, two sowing dates were defined (2013 crop year: February 27 and March 27; and 2014 crop year: March 18 and April 5). In subplots, irrigation management systems were defined (irrigated and rainfed). Hybrids AS 1555 and AS 1590 were grown in the sub-plots. The parameters evaluated were plant height, ear insertion height, stem diameter, ear length and diameter, 100-grain weight, and grain yield. Regardless of irrigation and hybrid used, sowing time significantly affected corn yield, which responded to climate changes throughout crop cycle. Water supply increased corn yield, with the highest value being of 9338 kg ha^-1 (156 bags ha^-1) and obtained when irrigated AS 1555 hybrid was sown on February 27, 2013.
