DH 02 (Dryland Hybrid 2) is a drought-tolerant, early-maturing (70–100 days) maize variety ideal for arid and semi-arid low-to-mid altitude regions (1000–1500m) in Kenya. It produces white, semi-dent, high-quality grains, with high resistance to Maize Streak Virus (MSV), leaf blight, and ear rot.
Key Characteristics and Performance
Yield Potential: Approx. 18 to 30 bags (90kg) per acre
Drought Tolerance: Known for "long stay-green" traits, allowing it to withstand moisture stress
Grain Type: White, large cobs with semi-dent kernels.
Planting Density: Recommended 10 kg of seeds per acre.
Recommended Growing Regions
DH 02 is specifically suited for drylands such as Makueni, Machakos, Kitui, Baringo, parts of Siaya, Busia, and lower areas of Kisumu (Bondo).
