Is growing corn profitable?

Judging from the current situation, corn planting is not a particularly profitable industry because its income and profits are relatively low. However, with the recent increase in food subsidies, it is still possible to make money if it is planted on a large scale.

Profits and Benefits of Planting Corn

Currently, the profit from growing corn is not very high. If the yield per mu is 800-1000 jin, calculated based on the selling price of 1-2 yuan per jin, after deducting the cost, the net profit per mu is only about 700-1000 yuan, which is not particularly good.

High-yield corn cultivation techniques

1. Site selection

Corn is not very demanding in terms of soil, but if you want high yields, loose, deep, organic-rich soil is best, and the soil pH should be between 6-8.

2. Planting

Corn can be sown in holes with a row spacing of about 65 cm. After sowing, water the seeds in time according to soil conditions, and then wait for the seeds to germinate.

3. Spacing

When planting corn, you must pay attention to the planting form and density. The planting density of corn should not be too high, otherwise the plants will affect each other, resulting in a decrease in corn yield.
