The 2024 Virginia performance trials of commercial corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids were conducted at six dryland locations; Blacksburg, Montgomery Co., Holland, Nansemond Co. Blackstone, Nottoway Co., Orange, Orange Co., Mt. Holly, Westmoreland Co., Shenandoah, Page Co., and one irrigated location - Mt. Holly, Westmoreland Co. At all locations, corn was planted with a Wintersteiger PlotKing 2600 planter (Wintersteiger Inc., Salt Lake City, UT). At all locations, corn was harvested at maturity with a Massey-Ferguson 8XP plot combine harvester (Massey Ferugson, Duluth, GA). Plot grain weights (lb/ac), grain test weight (lb/bu), grain moisture (%) were measured with a GrainGage® by HarvestMaster (Juniper Systems, Logan, UT, USA). Plot grain weights have been adjusted to a standardized moisture content of 15.5%. Days to maturity provided by company; differences in maturity rating methods may exist between companies.
