Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the agronomic performance of corn for silage corn grown after cover crops. The experimental design was a randomized block design with four replications and seven treatments. The treatments were corn grown in the straw 1) oat; 2) oat + oilseed radish; 3) oat + white lupine; 4) white lupine; 5) crambe; 6) spontaneus vegetation (fallow ground) and 7) spontaneus vegetation (fallow ground) + nitrogen fertilizer in the V6 phase in the amount of 100 kg ha-1 N. Were evaluated: plant height, height of ear placement, stem diameter below the ear placement, stem diameter, above the ear insertion, number of leaves below the ear placement, number of leaves above ear placement, diameter and spike length, ear number and yield of green mass (biomass). Corn plants were harvested between stages of dough and dough. There was a significant difference only for the number of leaves above ear placement. Biomass production of maize grown under different straw covering plants is not influenced significantly, regardless of the species used. The application of nitrogen did not influence the production of biomass for silage.
