  The research was set up on chernozem soil at the Látókép MÉK research area of the University of Debrecen in Hungary. We examined the following factors of the hybrid P9494, P9578, PR37N01 and PR37M81 in 2013.Yield, yield production per 1 kg fertilizer, water utilization and nutrient reaction. We found that the best yield results were achieved at level N120+PK in case of hybrid P9494 (17 132 kg ha^-1) P9578 (16 838 kg ha^-1) and PR37N01 (17 476 kg ha^-1) and at level N150+PK for hybrid PR37M81 (16 754 kg ha^-1). Results of yield per 1 kg NPK studies indicate that the most intense yield growth occurred at level N30+PK compared to the control treatment. This means that yield production per 1 kg NPK was 39.2 kg kg^-1 in the case of hybrid P9494, 54.2 kg kg^-1 in the case of P9578, 17.6 kg kg^-1 for PR37N01 and 44.2 kg kg^-1 in the case of PR37M81. After comparing corn hybrids’ water utilization, our conclusion was that the control treatment achieved the worst results in the case of each hybrid (P9494: 20.8 kg mm^-1, P9578: 21.0 kg mm^-1, PR37N01: 26.2 kg mm^-1, PR37M81: 19.5 kg mm^-1). For hybrid P9494, P9578 and P37N01, the best water utilization results were measured at level N120+PK (31.5 kg mm^-1, 31,0 kg mm^-1 and 32.1 kg mm^-1), while PR37M81 reached the highest values at level N150+PK (30.8 kg mm^-1). We determined the hybrids’ nutrient reaction and its optimum fertilizer values. The best nutrient reaction results were achieved by hybrid PR37N01, while that of hybrid PR37M81 proved to be the weakest.

  The field research was set up on chernozem soil at the Látókép AGTC KIT research area of the University of Debrecen. The study focused on yield, water utilization, nutrient reaction and the amount of yield per kg fertilizer of corn hybrid NX 47279 in 2011 and 2012. Based on the yield results it can be concluded that the largest yield in 2011 was 15 963 kg ha^-1 at level N120+PK, while in 2012, the maximum yield amounted to 14 972 kg ha^-1 at level N90+PK. Surplus yield per kg fertilizer proved that in 2011 level N30+PK resulted in the highest surplus yield (42.3 kg kg^-1) compared to the control treatment. In 2012, yield growth was 18.0 kg kg^-1 compared to the control treatment. We measured at level N60+PK 17,5 kg kg^-1 compared to at level N30+PK, at the N90+PK 17,7 kg kg^-1 compared to at level N60+PK. level N30+PK kg kg^-1, 17.5 kg kg^-1 at level N60+PK and 17.7 kg kg^-1 at level N90+PK compared to the control treatment.

  Results of the regression analysis showed that the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was 117 kg ha^-1 in 2011 and 111 kg ha^-1 in 2012 in order to reach maximum yield. Doses of fertilizers above the amounts previously mentioned resulted in yield decrease. Our results indicated that in the drought year of 2012 the hybrid used available water more efficiently than in 2011. The hybrid produced 59 kg ha^-1 yield in 2012 and 51.9 kg ha^-1 in 2011 at an optimum nutrition level.

  The effect of increasing fertilizer dosages on the yield of eight different maize hybrids (SY Ondina, NK Kansas, NK Lucius, NK Octet, NK Thermo, SY Flovita, SY Brillio, NX 47279) has been investigated in the crop-year of 2011. According to our results it can be stated that contrarily to the control treatment the application of different nutrient-levels has resulted a significant yield increment (2 000–5 800 kg ha^-1).
  Based upon the results of this experiment we have drawn the conclusion that the nutrient level of 120 kg N+PK was the optimal for the investigated hybrids. The highest yield (14 475 kg ha^-1–15 963 kg ha^-1) of the hybrids with different genotypes has been produced in case of this fertilizer treatment. With the comparison of the control and the optimum-fertilizer treatments the yield-increasing effect of mineral fertilization and the different reaction of hybrids towards increasing fertilizer dosages have been proven. In case of the control treatments the best-yielding hybrids were NK Thermo (11 917 kg ha^-1) and NX 47279 (11 617 kg ha^-1). Contrarily on the optimal nutrient supply level the hybrids SY Brillio (15 876 kg ha^-1) and NX 47279 (15 963 kg ha^-1) have produced the highest yields. Summarizing, we can state that the hybrid NX 47279 has resulted stable and high yields in the fertilized treatments. Analysing the yield-increasing effect of 1 kg fertilizer active substance it was proven, that the hybrids SY Flovita (45.43 kg ha^-1), SY Brillio (44.47 kg ha^-1) and NX 47279 (42.33 kg ha^-1) had a good reaction towards even lower nutrient supply levels as well. In case of the control treatment the average water utilization coefficient of the hybrids was significantly lower (35.2 kg mm^-1), than in case of the optimal nutrient supply level (N120+PK) treatments (48.9 kg mm^-1).
  Therefore the hybrid specific difference between the water utilization of genotypes could be revealed.
