Fascinates me how corn is now grown for grain in so many areas it never used to be, Just curious how much is grown in Uk for dry grain?
In my area in Ontario(canada) corn for grain wasn't even a popular thing before 2000ish neither was soybeans but now they make up a big chunk of the crops in the area
What are the yields and moistures like? Here I can run between 3-4 tonnes/acre converted to dry weight. 118-155 or so bushels per acre in a decent year. Problem is in this region can be low bushel weight when early frost comes. But a lot better than it used to be. And are you using roundup resistant corn or would it be non gmo conventional?
