Synopsis Yields were increased by early initial harvest, by 3‐inch height of cut, and by 400 lb. N/A. Interactions between height of cut and time of harvest, height of cut and rate of N, and time of harvest and rate of N were highly significant. No N response was produced by normal date of harvest plus 1.5‐inch cut. Early stage of maturity was more important than height of cut in the first harvest, but height of cut was more important in subsequent harvests.
