Abstract: Tepora, Nonalyn Penales, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, Philippines, April 1998. "Growth and Yield of Three Flint Corn Cultivars as Affected by Population Density During Dry Season of Planting. Prof- Adriano G .Romen, Adviser. This study was conducted in a farmer" s field at Buna Lejos, Indang, Cavite from October to December 1998. The study aimed to evaluate the growth and yield performance of flint corn as affected by population density. The field measuring approximately 500 square meters was prepared thoroughly using a native plow. The study was laid out following a 3 x 4 factorial experiment in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The two factors tested were variety and population density. The parameters evaluated were average plant height at maturity, weight of 100 seeds, weight of shelled corn per plot and computed yield per hectare. Analysis of variance, (ANOVA) revealed significant differences among the treatments and population densities. Results showed that population density of 80, 000 plant per hectare with 25 x 50 cm distance of planting significantly increased the weight of 100 seeds, computed yield per hectare and average height of plant at maturity. On the other hand, Variety 2 (Hybrid 911) significantly showed superiority in grain production in terms of weight of shelled corn per plot and yield per hectare.
