Abstract

Maize is one of the most important crops in world agriculture and has a very important place in the planted area. It is cultivated for various purposes: Bread, Livestock (silage), the beer industry, the oil industry, and for bioenergy. More than five hundred different food items, dishes and drinks are produced from the maize plant. The production of hybrid seed has greatly influenced the increase in the yield of maize, both for grain and forage mass. For the conditions of Albania, the study of maize hybrids is very important, since the hybrid seed is imported and not produced in the country. The experiment involved eleven hybrids imported by the companies: ARLI International and Huqi, which respectively import from Zemun Polje and from Dekalb and KWS. Eleven hybrids were included in the study, namely: 477, 6263, 388, 735, 606, 555, 5601, 707, 666,553 B from Zemun Polje and Kulmos from KWS, Germany. The experiment was set up according to a randomized block design with eleven variants and four replications. Ten plants were determined for each replicate and variant on which biometric measurements and production indicators were made. The data was subjected to mathematical data processing to determine the best hybrid, which is adapted to the conditions of the area and gives the highest yield.
