Sunflower crop is a good option of income generation because of its grains commercialization and oil extration. The lack of knowledge about performance of genotypes at local conditions is one of the problems to the installation of this crop in the Maranhão State The objective of this work was to evaluate sunflower genotypes and to verify its productive potential in the Maranhão State. The aquenio yield, oil content, oil yield, initial flowering, physiological maturation and height of plants had been evaluated. It was observed that genotypes showed a low average aquenio yield (348 kg/ha), but their average oil content was sactisfatory. ACA 884, Helio 358 and Agrobel 962 had the best results for all of agronomical characteristics evaluated.
