Assessing the Fodder Potentials of Drought-Tolerant Maize (Zea mays L.) Hybrids in West Africa

Assessing the Fodder Potentials of Drought-Tolerant Maize (Zea mays L.) Hybrids in West Africa

The study evaluated the fodder potential of 42 promising drought-tolerant (DT) three-way cross maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids, 11 commercial hybrid checks, and 1 local variety check under irrigation. Agronomic and laboratory trials were conducted to determine their morphological traits and fodder poten...
