The Lifeline of Nutrition & Farming
KANAKA-225 is a high-performance hybrid maize variety, developed for high yield potential, strong plant structure, and adaptability to both rainfed and upland irrigated conditions. With a maturity period of 135–145 days and a plant height of 6–7 feet, this variety ensures stable and superior grain production. The dark orange grains completely fill the cob till the tip, and the thin shell structure enhances grain recovery, making KANAKA-225 an ideal choice for commercial maize cultivation.
Challenges & Solutions
Maize farming comes with challenges such as incomplete cob filling, low grain recovery, and inconsistent yield in varying climatic conditions. KANAKA-225 is designed to overcome these challenges and maximize output for farmers.
Challenges
Common issues faced in maize farming include:
Incomplete Cob Filling
Thick Cob Shell Reducing Harvested Grain Weight
Limited Adaptability to Different Ecologies
Low Market Acceptance for Dull-Colored Grains
Solutions
KANAKA-225 offers key benefits to improve maize cultivation efficiency:
Thin Shell Structure for Maximum Grain Recovery
Dark Orange, High-Density Grains
Full Cob Filling Till the End
Adaptability to Rainfed & Upland Irrigated Conditions
Performance and Profitability
Yield Potential (Tons/Ha): KANAKA-225 provides high and stable grain yields, ensuring better profitability for farmers.
Adoption Rate: Farmers prefer KANAKA-225 for its high cob filling, superior grain quality, and excellent adaptability.

Cultivation Guidelines
Planting Instructions:
Land Preparation:
Ensure fertile, well-drained soil with good moisture retention.Sowing Depth:
Sow seeds at 3–5 cm depth for optimal germination.Spacing:
Maintain a row spacing of 60 cm and plant spacing of 20 cm to encourage better growth and airflow.Maintenance Tips:
Irrigation:
Well-adapted to rainfed conditions, but performs best with supplementary irrigation in upland areas.Fertilization:
Apply a balanced mix of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to support cob development and grain filling.Pest & Disease Control:
Regular monitoring and preventive measures help maintain crop health and reduce losses.Harvesting Tips:
Best Time:
Harvest fully matured cobs at 135–145 days for optimal grain quality.Method:
Use manual or mechanical harvesting to ensure efficient grain collection.Storage:
Proper drying and moisture-free storage extend shelf life and improve marketability.
