In tests at the Upper Coastal Plain Substation in Winfield, Auburn researchers planted tropical corn on June 15, and harvested up to 85 bushels per acre. Across the state, at the Sand Mountain Substation in Crossville, researchers recorded up to 65 bushels per acre from tropical corn planted in a rotation with reseeding crimson clover.


Yields at the Sand Mountain Substation were reduced by dry weather in August and the earliest frost on record, according to Auburn researcher Wayne Reeves, who is a USDA agronomist and adjunct researcher with the Experiment Station. He noted that preliminary studies indicate that June 7-20 will be good "windows" of planting time in north Alabama for currently available tropical corn varieties. In central and south Alabama, these optimal dates appear to be from June 14 to early July.
