Corn Production

Corn production information is provided to help growers with profitable and environmental crop production. Clemson University faculty and staff work together to provide environmental-specific information to growers of South Carolina and surrounding areas. Through research performed at the Research and Education centers and farms and expertise provided by Extension Agents during on-site calls, we strive to be on the cutting edge of agronomic research to provide the most accurate data and support.
