Abstract: Corn holds a strategic position as a major agricultural commodity in Kendal Regency, Central Java. Corn plays a vital role as a driver of local economic growth and national food security. Currently, there are numerous hybrid corn varieties available in Kendal Regency. However, farmers often complain about the high cost of the hybrid corn seeds they plant. In addition to the high prices, the varieties currently in use often have low productivity. This study aims to identify hybrid corn varieties with high yield potential that are suitable for cultivation in the local area. With the availability of domestically developed varieties, it is hoped that production costs can be reduced and seed prices will be lower compared to the varieties currently on the market. The conclusions of this study are: (1) genotypes UWS 2, UWS 3, and UWS 4 yielded higher harvests than other genotypes, indicating that this group possesses superior adaptability and yield potential for further development; and (2) the successful development and breeding of new hybrid corn varieties can be achieved through testing at corn production centers and appropriate plant breeding within an academic setting.
