The Chamber of Agriculture in Kırkağaç, Manisa, Turkey, has successfully harvested 12 thousand tons of seed corn from 300 decares in the Alacalar District. This is the first time such a harvest has been attempted in the area. The seed corn is expected to yield 400 kilos per decare, potentially bringing in an income of 10,500 TL per decare for the farmers. The seed corn is hybrid and will be sold to farmers by a private company. If the harvest is successful, seed corn planting is likely to increase in the future.
