Abstract
The following paper describes a fi eld test carried out in 2008 to compare square planting and normal sowing with silo maize under special consideration of the effect on yield, weed regularisation, as well as work economy and profitability. So cross compound should be examined in the investigation as a new cultivation technology. The cross compound particularly stand out due to its sowing in a square compound of 33 by 33 cm. On this occasion, the single sowing rows connect precisely with each other. This idea to create cross compounds makes it possible to hoe in two different directions: in the machine direction and also in a cross direction and consequently the weed free space is raised from about 66 % up to 90 %.
