Maize is one of Bangladesh's fastest-growing crops. Beyond human food, it is vital for poultry and fish feed industries.
It can be grown in both rabi and kharif seasons. Hybrid varieties deliver higher yields and attract more farmers.
Residues support livestock feed and organic recycling in integrated farms. With good seed and pest management, maize can be a strong cash crop.
