Influence of climate change and mechanized harvesting on maize (Zea mays L.) planting and northern limits in northeast China.

This study not only confirmed the northern limits of early maturing MKHM maize but also indicated that the development of MKHM offsets the influences of climate change on the northern limits of maize planting. This is very important for the sustainable development of maize in the region. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.
