Abstract

Small maize producers are unaware of the agronomic  behavior of new genotypes in their work area and the use  of technical irrigation systems. The objective of this paper  was to evaluate the agronomic behavior of hybrid maize  cultivated in fertirrigation. The study was carried out in the  2014 winter-spring cycle in the School of Higher Studies  of Xalostoc. The number of leaves above the cob, total  leaves, cob weight, cob diameter and grain yield were  measured. A completely random block design was used.  The best hybrid for leaves above the cob (6.46), total leaves  (13.66), cob weight (206.88) and grain yield (7 613.3 kg  ha-1) was H-377. It was confirmed that the new introduced  genotypes should be evaluated and technification for water  saving and yield raise is required.
