Response of forage maize yield and quality to mulch film and harvest time in Northern Europe

Response of forage maize yield and quality to mulch film and harvest time in Northern Europe

Forage maize (Zea mays L.) yield and nutritional quality fluctuate markedly in Northern Europe due to weather conditions. A field experiment was conducted in Southern Finland (Helsinki, 2018–2020) and in Central Finland (Maaninka, Kuopio, 2019–2020) to study the effect of harvest time and use of mu...
