A field experiment on “Response of Sweet corn hybrid to transplanting dates and nitrogen levels under temperate conditions” was conducted at research farm of Faculty of Agriculture (SKUAST-K) during 2016. The soil of the experimental field was silty clay loam in texture, low in soil available N and P and medium in available K and neutral in reaction. The treatments comprised of two transplanting dates viz., 1 st of May and 1st of June and five levels of N viz., 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 kg/ha.

Corn is the major cereal crop of the U.S. and the second most important cereal crop worldwide. The diversity of potential uses for corn was realized by the Native Americans prior to the first voyage of Columbus. Today, corn production in the U.S. provides feed, food, and a resource for many unique industrial and commercial products. The potential to enhance use of corn for specialty purposes based on existing uses, and develop new products to meet the needs of future generations, provides the plant breeder/plant scientist with unique challenges.
