Abstract:

Clarifying the effect of lodging on maize grain loss and harvest efficiency is important to propose adaptable measures developing maize grain harvesting technology in China. A number of sample data of field natural lodging rate, ear loss rate and kernel loss rate were obtained from experiments and demonstrations of maize grain harvesting. The lodging was also implemented by pushing down the maize plants artificially to analyze the quantitative relationship of lodging rate with grain loss and harvest efficiency in mechanical grain harvest. All of lodging rate, ear loss rate and kernel loss rate were higher in the Yellow-Huaihe- Haihe Rivers Plain summer maize region than in North and Northwest spring maize regions. Under natural lodging conditions, the ear loss was a major part of grain yield loss, which increased by 0.15% when lodging rate increased each 1%. As lodging rate increased each 1%, ear loss increased by 0.12% in spring maize region and by 0.15% in summer maize region. There were an exponentially increasing relationship for using whole feed type combine harvester and a linear increasing relationship for using half feed type combine harvester between lodging rate and ear loss rate, behaving a greater influence of lodging in Yellow- Huaihe-Haihe Rivers Plain summer region. Under lodging control conditions, the ear loss increased by 0.59% with each 1% increase in lodging rate, and the kernel loss was significantly and negatively correlated with lodging rate. This can be explained that more lodging plants have less ears entering the combine harvester and decreasing kernel loss rate. The harvest speed decreased exponentially with increasing lodging rate. Lowering the harvester header decreased ear loss rate but reduced the harvest speed. Common methods to prevent lodging and reduce grain loss should be breeding maize cultivars with lodging resistance, constructing high-quality maize populations and harvesting at optimal time.

Key words: maize, lodging, mechanical grain harvest, ear and kernel loss, harvest speed
