Abstract: Field tests were conducted by the Agricultural research field at Patuakhali Science and Technology University from January to June 2018 to examine the effects of variety and plant spacing on yield. The experiment included three hybrid varieties: Pioneer-3396, Titan, Sunshine, and three spacing of plant: (70 X 15) cm2, (60 X 20) cm2 and (50 X 25) cm2. The experiment created with a randomized complete block design with three replicates. Results showed a significant impact of the variety and spacing on yields and yields examined. Maximum rows cob-1, seeds row-1, cob breadthm, cob weight, stems girth, and grain yield were recorded from the hybrid variety Titan. Maximum number of cob plant-1, seeds row-1, seeds cob-1, highest cob length, cob weight, grain weight cob-1, grain yield, and straw yield were recorded in spacing (60 X 20) cm2. In contrast, (50 X 25) cm2 spacing produced minimum values of the above-mentioned plant parameters also lowest grain and straw yield. Interaction effects of variety and spacing, showed the maximum seeds Cob-1 (339.0), the highest cob (13.52 cm), the maximum cob weight (129.7 g), and grain weight Cob-1 (104.7 g) with titanium. Significant 1000 seed weight (272.7 g) recorded with Titan. At (60 X 20) cm2 intervals, maximum grain yield (9.0 tha-1) and straw yield (4.2 tha-1). Minimum outputs were recorded at Pioneer 3396 with closest plant distance of (70 X 15) cm2. Because of experimental results, we can conclude that corn (CV. Hybrid-Titan -Corn) can be grown with a distance of (60 X 20) cm2 for the highest income.
