Navajo business saw highest yield corn plot in New Mexico
Posted: Monday, April 9, 2012
Navajo Agricultural Products Industry, a business owned by the Navajo Nation, won an award for the highest-yield corn plot in New Mexico, The Farmington Daily Times reports.
NAPI saw a yield of 270.7 bushels per acre in 2011. That's far higher than the U.S. average of 146.7 bushels per acre.
"We've got a lot of teamwork," Albert Etcitty, NAPI's corn crop manager, told the paper. "There's so many different departments that get involved in this. Without them, we wouldn't have done it."
