Improving dryland water productivity of maize through cultivar selection and planting date optimization in Mozambique

Improving dryland water productivity of maize through cultivar selection and planting date optimization in Mozambique

Mozambique is a semi-arid area with unreliable rainfall distribution; therefore optimal planting dates are critical to ensure that maize is not stressed during critical stages. The objective of this research was to study the effect of sowing date and cultivar on maize (Zea mays L.) yields in Mozambi...
