How to avoid stress during Corn establishment?

Establishment is a critical stage for corn!

At this stage, the plant begins using photosynthesis and autotrophy to produce biomass. Root system and leaves begin to establish, and any stress can slow down or delay plant development. Particular attention has to be accorded to corn at this moment. Up to 100% of your crop can be damaged from stress during this stage.

To enable a strong establishment:

➡ Soil should be well prepared, have adequate moisture, and be at a temperature that stays around 10 °C

➡ Applying fertilizers and biostimulants will bolster the crop’s ability to withstand abiotic stresses.
