Agricultural method for yellow Shami corn: •Most varieties of Shami corn succeed in well-drained alluvial soils that range from slightly acidic to neutral. Shami corn also needs nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which, along with other nutrients, are generally added to the soil as chemical or organic fertilizers before plowing or during plant growth. Many farmers follow crop rotation cycles that include planting crops like alfalfa, clover, soybeans, or wheat alternately with Shami corn. This crop rotation helps replenish some nutrients in the soil, combat soil erosion, and control weeds, insects, pests, and diseases. Usually, planting begins in spring after plowing the soil. Seeds are planted about 5 cm deep in rows spaced approximately 75 to 100 cm apart. Harvesting of Shami corn begins when the moisture content of the mature grains drops to 28%, and in many areas, harvesting is done with a combine harvester that cuts the cobs from the stalks, removes the husks, shells, and cleans them in one process. The grains are then dried with hot air and stored in silos.
