In the last decade, the national production of corn tripled as its harvested area expanded to areas with serious environmental limitations.
With the idea of generating more and better knowledge about maize management practices in these marginal environments, researchers from the Faculty of Agronomy of the UBA (FAUBA), CONICET and other institutions, in addition to technicians, companies and producers, created the “Maize Ultra Low Density Network”. In this way, they seek to provide producers from different areas with new, sustainable and profitable productive alternatives for cultivation. See also The corn harvest surprises in its final stretch with numbers that "seemed impossible" One of the strategies for marginal areas, as explained by the researcher and coordinator of this network, Gustavo Maddoni, from FAUBA, is to delay the planting date, while the other alternative is to reduce the number of plants per surface unit, at a rate of 2 plants per square meter (in high production regions between 7.5 and 8 plants per square meter are planted).
