This study was conducted to determine the relationship between sweet corn plant phenology and population development and the attack of Spodoptera frugiperda. The research was carried out at the Research Farm and at the Laboratory of Plant Pests, Faculty of Agriculture, Jambi University. The study was conducted on an area of 500 m2 containing 28 plant plots. The sample plants consisted of 4 plots determined systematically. In each sample plot, all plants were used as sample.  plants to calculate the percentage of attacked plants, and the percentage of attacked cobs. S. frugiperda population observations were carried out directly on leaves, stems, flowers and cobs. If there were S. frugiperda faeces on the shoots, stems, and cobs, destructive observations were made where the plant parts were opened, to determine the presence of S. frugiperda in them. The data obtained were tabulated and arranged in the form of tables and figures, then explained descriptively. The results showed that: the population of S. frugiperda in each growth phase continued to increase, the highest population of S. frugiperda was found in the R6 phase or in the physiological ripening phase, which was as many as 21 heads per 12 corn plants; the percentage of attacks of S. frugiperda in each phase continues to increase, the highest percentage of attacks is in phase R6, which is 78.72%;  the attack of S. frugiperda on cobs began to be seen in the R2-R5 phase and was highest in the R6 phase, which was 68.57%. It is necessary to find the right way to control S. frugiferda.

Sweet corn (Zea mays L.) yields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon declined during the 1990s. Severe root rot affected some plants shortly before harvest, but was absent in other plants that showed secondary symptoms of reduced ear yield and leaf death; necrosis of stalk nodes and crown tissues was found instead. Studies were done to determine if there is a relationship among yield and necrosis of crowns, stalk nodes, nodal roots, radicles, or sub-crown internodes. An image analysis program was used to quantify the grayscale value of crown and node tissues. Regression analysis indicates that plants with darker crown tissues have lower ear weights. Rots of the nodal roots, radicle, or sub-crown internode were poor predictors of ear weight at harvest. When either Fusarium oxysporum or F. verticillioides were isolated from crowns of commercial sweet corn plants, these crowns had significantly darker grayscale values than those from which neither species was isolated; ear weights were also lower when F. oxysporum was isolated from the crown or a stalk node.

Water stress in sweet corn plants due effect of climatic events, such as El Niño, is difficult to monitor, leading to considerable losses. Silicon (Si) as an exogenous resistance elicitor may reduce water stress effects. The relationship between sweet corn plant age and its development, under induced water stress and leaf potassium silicate applications were evaluated. This work was carried out with the hybrid Tropical Plus®, in a randomized factorial block design with 15, 30, 45 and 60 kPa as soil water tensions in plots and potassium silicate doses (0, 6, 12 and 24 L ha-1) in subplots. Stem diameter, plant height and leaf number per plant were evaluated at 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 days after seeding. Root length was measured on the 90th day after seeding. Sweet corn plants submitted to water stress conditions and Si application showed an age-dependent response. Water stress did not decrease stem diameter, plant height and number of leaves per plant sprayed with Si. Root length was longer with 60 kPa soil water tension. Silicon reduced negative impacts of water stress on sweet corn plants.

Pesticides can be applied by aircraft, ground-sprayers or sprinkler irrigation. However, selecting the best option is complicated by the limited number of studies comparing these techniques. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the chlorpyrifos insecticide deposition applied by aircraft (30 L ha-1), tractor-mounted sprayer (200 L ha-1) and chemigation (70,000 L ha-1) for the control of Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) in two corn (Zea mays L.) populations (70,000 and 100,000 plants ha-1). Active ingredient residue on the corn plant leaves was evaluated by gas chromatography, immediately and ten days after the treatments. Armyworm numbers in each plot and control were also evaluated. The experiment was set up in randomized blocks with four replications. Aerial and ground applications of chlorpyrifos led to greater active ingredient deposition in the leaves than chemigation. Neither plant population (70,000 and 100,000 plants ha-1) affected the insecticide deposition in the corn leaves. S. frugiperda control was similar for all three application methods. Chemigation, however, resulted in less deposition on the plants and consequently in a greater insecticide loss to the soil, which should be considered in environmental impact.

Organic farming has become very important for the continuity of agriculture in Indonesia. In addition to harvesting organic crops is healthy, the process of organic cultivation is also an effort of farmers to make improvementets to soil quality. This research aim to determine how the response to the administration of various doses of bat guano fertilizer and guano swallow fertilizer on sweet corn plant by the addition of phosphate solvent microbes. The study was conducted in the experimental garden of the Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Perjuangan Tasikmalaya. The experimental design used factorial randomized block design with 3 treatment of bat guano fertilizer dosage and 3 treatments of guano swallow fertilizer dosage, each treatment was repeated 3 times and each treatment was given phosphate solvent with the same dose. The result showed that there was an interaction between guano bat fertilizer and guano swallow at 6 and 8 week after planting leaves in the treatment of K0W1 (0 tons / ha bat guano + 2.5 ton / ha swallow guano) and K1W2 (2.5 tons / ha Bat guano + 3.75 tons / ha swallow guano), but there are no interaction on other parameters. There are no maximum doses for guano bats and guano swallow in the response of sweet corn plant.

During 1988 and 1989, the relationship between different weed communities in corn plantings and infestation of and damage to corn by the stalk borer, Papaipema nebris (Guenée) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), was studied in Ohio. The four treatments were corn without weeds, corn principally with broadleaf weeds, corn principally with grasses, and corn with a mixture of both weed types. In 1988, there were no significant differences between treatments with broadleaf weeds and treatments without broadleaf weeds, and between treatments with grassy weeds and treatments without grassy weeds, in terms of number of larvae per corn plant and number of corn plants damaged. Low populations of P. nebris in corn during 1988 may have been associated with severe drought which caused low larval survival. There were significantly more larvae per corn plant and a significantly greater percentage of corn plants damaged in plantings containing broadleaf weeds than in corn plantings without broadleaf weeds in 1989. The results of this study show that the presence of broadleaf weeds in corn fields may lead to increased infestation of corn by stalk borer larvae.

The aim of research is to test the combination of organic fertilizer and NPK fertilizer, test organic fertilizer, test NPK fertilizer that is suitable for the growth and yield of sweet corn. This research method using Randomized Block Design (RAK) arranged factorial consists of two factors, namely Organic Fertilizer (cage) with 3 levels of treatment (K) and NPK Fertilizer with 3 levels of treatment (M). Each treatment was repeated 3 times and each treatment combination consisted of two sample plants. The results of this study showed that the overall treatment of the combination of organic fertilizer and NPK fertilizer on the growth and yield of sweet corn plants did not show a real effect. Separately the treatment of organic fertilizer gave a very real effect on all observation variables, the average organic fertilizer as much as 17.5 tons / ha or 1.5 kg / tan (K3) gave the highest growth and yield of sweet corn compared to other treatment, Separately the treatment of NPK fertilizer gave a very real influence on all observation variables, the average NPK fertilizer with a composition of 450 kg Urea + 150 kg TSP + 75 kg KCl) / Ha or 9 g + 3 g + 1.5 g / tan (M3) gives the highest growth and yield of sweet corn compared to other treatments.

A greenhouse experiment was carried out to investigate the possibility of an optimum N/P ratio for sweet corn (Zea mays L.), using Homès’ method of systematic variations.Three levels of N and P fertilizers were applied to a soil. Each level was comprised of nine fertilizer treatments differing only in N/P ratio in a replacement series. Accordingly, the three levels represented 8.12, 16.04, and 32.02 meq per 4.4 kg soil of NO3− plus H2PO4−, respectively.There appeared to be a definite N/P ratio of fertilizer which resulted in a maximum yield and which was similar for all three levels of the replacement series of N plus P. However, this effect was most pronounced at the highest level of N plus P. The Homès method for determining the optimum N/P ratio of a fertilizer was successful primarily at the highest level of N plus P.N/P ratios of corn plant tissues from about 9 to 18 coincided with maximum dry matter yields at the highest level of N plus P.
