During 2002-2003, field trials were carried out at the Rimski Sancevi Experiment Field of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad, Serbia (Serbia and Montenegro) to study the effects of the Bebizea stimulant preparation on yield and yield components of eight NS maize hybrids from different FAO maturity groups in irrigated and unirrigated conditions. Seed treatment by the preparation has no statistically significant positive effect on yield, 1000-grain weight, grain moisture and cob percentage contribution, although in some of the hybrids these parameters were affected to a certain, insignificant extent. As a result of irrigation, the yield stabilized at a high level regardless of whether or not the maize had been treated with Bebizea. Over the two study years, the increase of yield by irrigation averaged 34.88%.
