Description
Abstract - New and improved maize hybrids, developed by the CIMMYT Global Maize Program, are available for uptake by public and private sector partners, especially those interested in marketing or disseminating hybrid maize seed across upper altitudes of Eastern Africa and similar agro-ecologies in other regions. Following a rigorous trialing and a stage-gate advancement process culminating in the 2021 Stage 5 trials, CIMMYT advanced a total of 1 new elite maize hybrid for highlands in Eastern Africa in 2022. Phenotypic data collected in Stage 4 and Stage 5 trials for the selected hybrid as well as information about the trial sites are provided in this dataset. These trials were conducted through a network of partners, including NARS and private seed companies, in Eastern Africa under various management and environmental conditions.
