Effect of Plant Density on Yield and Forage Quality of Corn for Silage
There is evidence that plant density of maize crops for silage affects herbage yield and quality (Cusicanqui and Lauer 1999). However, most of experimental information comes from trials with a range of plant densities between 20,000 and 140,000 plants per hectare (Pl/ha). This range would be insuffi...

| description | There is evidence that plant density of maize crops for silage affects herbage yield and quality (Cusicanqui and Lauer 1999). However, most of experimental information comes from trials with a range of plant densities between 20,000 and 140,000 plants per hectare (Pl/ha). This range would be insufficient to establish functional relationships between yield, forage quality, light interception and plant composition (Bertoia 1994). In addition, it is known that dry matter partitioning between plant components varies according to the environmental conditions of a given year (Andrade et al. 1991). The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between the light interception, yield, plant composition and herbage quality of corn for silage across a wide range of plant densities. |

Existe evidencia de que la densidad de siembra de los cultivos de maíz para ensilaje afecta el rendimiento y la calidad del forraje (Cusicanqui y Lauer 1999). Sin embargo, la mayor parte de la información experimental proviene de ensayos con un rango de densidades de plantas entre 20 000 y 140 000 plantas por hectárea (Pl/ha). Este rango sería insuficiente para establecer relaciones funcionales entre rendimiento, calidad del forraje, intercepción de luz y composición de la planta (Bertoia 1994). Además, se sabe que la partición de materia seca entre los componentes de la planta varía según las condiciones ambientales de un año determinado (Andrade et al. 1991). El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la relación entre la interceptación de la luz, el rendimiento, la composición de la planta y la calidad del forraje de maíz para ensilaje en una amplia gama de densidades de plantas.
