Cover Story: Maize is the most represented grain crop on the world’s arable land. It is mostly grown in standard sowing at an inter-row distance of 70 cm. However, growing in two rows (double-row sowing) is increasingly common today. The aim of the research was to determine the influence of different spatial distribution of the same population of maize plants on the yield of maize grains, in a larger range of the FAO maize hybrid maturing group. The experiment lasted 5 years and was set up at two locations, and 3 types of maize hybrids were used. View this paper
