Book excerpt: This book contain about maize (Zea mays L.) cultivar yield influence by various plant population. Comparing varying levels of plant population density to growth and yield is one measure used to gauge the value of maize cultivars. High plant population always increases competition for growth resources viz. light, moisture and nutrients and thus low grain yield was observed. Each maize cultivar reached a point of maximum yield and harvest index at 70000 plants ha-1; further increase in plant population had non-significant increase in yield. Among the tested maize cultivars, Afgoy had better performance for growth and yield
