What month is suitable for planting corn?

Corn is mainly divided into spring corn and autumn corn. Spring corn is usually planted in April and May , and the local temperature must reach above 10 degrees before sowing; autumn corn should be planted in July and August , and the temperature must be above 16 degrees.

Our country has a vast territory and the climate varies from place to place, so the time for planting corn is also different. Different places can choose the planting time according to the local climate.

Corn Planting Methods

1. Reasonable density: The density should take into account the characteristics of the variety. Secondly, if the amount of fertilizer is large, the appropriate planting density will be large. In areas prone to drought and without irrigation conditions, the planting density should be sparse.

2. Sowing depth: The sowing depth is generally 5-6cm. For loose sandy soil, the planting depth should be appropriately deepened, about 6-8cm is appropriate. If the soil contains a lot of moisture, deep sowing is not suitable. If the soil contains less moisture, deep sowing should be appropriately deepened.

Corn planting points

1. Watering: Corn should be watered in time after sowing. If too much fertilizer is applied and watering is not done in time, it will easily result in fertilizer burn. In addition, watering should be done moderately.

2. Pest and disease prevention and control: Corn is very susceptible to pests and diseases. The more common ones are small spot disease, mosaic stripe disease, leaf blight, gray spot disease, rust, brown spot disease, leaf spot disease, etc. Therefore, in the prevention and control of pests and diseases, prevention should be the main focus, and early detection and early treatment should be carried out.
