Grain Sorghum Response to Row Spacing and Plant Populations in the Texas Coastal Bend Region by Carlos J. Fernandez, Dan D. Fromme, W. James Grichar

“…In another study, 38 cm row spacings were compared with 76 cm row spacings under two plant populations. In 2000, when rains fell at an opportune time, no yield differences were noted; however, in 2001 with below average rainfall, the 76 cm plantings at 170,000–200,000 and 210,000–240,000 plants/ha produced higher yield than the 38 cm plantings at those same plant populations.…”
