Abstract:
The sowing date has a significant impact on sweet corn growth, development, and yield. For increased agricultural output, the best sowing date has become increasingly important. Sowing dates have an impact on plant establishment as well as pest and disease occurrence. Sowing dates affect maize differently. Whether it's early or late, sowing dates on sweet corn generate a variety of changes in plants that impact plant growth and development, and these variations may result in a significant yield drop. In a given location, not all cultivars are suited for use in the cropping system, and there is a certain sowing window that yields the best results. Sweet corn varieties also significantly influence the growth and yield attributes of the crop. The impacts of sowing dates and varieties on maize growth, development, and yield parameters are discussed in this article.
