Advanced cropping technology of maize (Zea mays L.) in Serbia
Апстракт
Studies on maize growing practices have been performed in the Maize
Research Institute, Zemun Polje since its establishment. Numerous studies
realised in accordance with contemporary global trends indicated the direction of
development of maize growing practices with the aim to use the genetic potential
of newly derived hybrids. Although, the genetic potential of the yield of maize
hybrids grown in Serbia is 10 to 15 t/hа, the recorded average yields are
significantly lower. The experimental trials with the application of standard
growing practices conducted during the fifteen growing seasons showed that the
maize yield varied from 10.46 to 11.38 t/hа. The obtained results indicated that,
for the region of central Serbia, contemporary maize growing systems should
include a correctly applied crop rotation with legumes (soybean), conventional
tillage with deep autumn ploughing, precisely determined plant density and the
time of sowing. Another important factor is the applicat...ion of fertilisers the
content and formulation of which are adjusted to the requirements of the
cultivated plant and irrigation tuned to the requirements of crops and climate in
terms of norms and frequency of the application.
