The aim of the thesis was to evaluate and to compare the rate of corn borer and the production capability of 4 hybrids of corn (Zeamays L.) of different earliness. For the comparison a variety test was layed out in the land of my father in Klimětice (Central Bohemia). Before the harvest a sampling for detection of dry matter content in the biomass has been made to determinate the date of harvest. The number of samplings depended on the attainment of required dry matter content in the biomass. By the harvest the yield and dry matter content of the biomass, yield and percentage of corn ears, dry matter yield and the starch yield were determined. In the experiments the differences in infestation of corn borer were determined. Further differences in observed parameters were found out, which were dependent on the different utility trends and earliness of the given hybrids. The result was the appreciation of the given hybrids and determining of their suitability for their growing in conditions of my fathers lands.
