The invention relates to a cultivation method of corn with stubbles and covering crops, in particular to a cultivation method of the corn and the covering crops. The method solves the problems that in arid and semi-arid cold areas, normal growth of the corn cannot be guaranteed with an existing corn and covering crop cultivation method and the biological yield of the covering crops is low. The method comprises the following steps: 1, harvesting field corn and reserving the stubbles; 2, conducting sowing in spring of the next year; and 3, carrying out field management. According to the invention, the growth time of the covering crops is prolonged, so that the biological yield of the covering crops is increased; and the corn stubbles and residual bodies of the covering crops are returned to the field, the organic matter content of soil can be increased, and the soil is protected. The method is particularly suitable for being applied to the arid and semi-arid cold areas, normal growth of the corn is fully guaranteed, meanwhile, the growth period of the covering crops is prolonged, and the biological yield of the covering crops is increased. According to the method, the original corn stubbles are reserved in the field, so that the soil disturbance is small, and the soil moisture conservation effect is achieved in spring.
