Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif season of 2022 at Crop Research Farm (CRF), Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (UP) to investigate the “Evaluation of Maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids under agro-climatic conditions of Prayagraj, U.P”. The treatments consists of 18 hybids. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments replicated thrice. The significantly highest plant height (169.75 cm), number of leaves ( 15. 75 ), dry weight (138.35 g/plant), CGR (0.0419 g/m2/day), number of cobs/plant (2.41), cob length (19.38 cm), number of Seeds/row (19.17/row), number of rows per cob (17.45), seed yield (5.24 t/ha) stover yield (11.13 t/ha) were recorded in hybrid M-702. Hybrid M-702 fetched maximum gross return (₹ 157200.00 /ha), net return (₹ 104105.00 /ha) and B:C ratio (1.96).
