Abstract:

Maize production plays vital role for the producers of the study area in serving as staple food. However, its productivity is constrained by a number of factors out of which optimum spacing is among the most important production factors. The Objective of the experiment was to investigate the influence of inter and intra-row spacing on yield components and grain yield of maize in 2019 cropping season at Chinaksen, East Hararghe Zone, eastern Ethiopia. The experiment was arranged in a factorial combination of the four inter-rows (55, 65, 75 and 85 cm) spacing and three intra-row spacing (25, 30, and 35 cm) spacing which were laid out in RCBD with three replication using maize (Zea mays L.) Melkassa-II variety. The results obtained had shown that there was highly significant (P
