- Association Genotype, sowing time and density each significantly affected all evaluated traits.
- Association Double and triple interactions among genotype, sowing time and density significantly affected all evaluated traits.
- Intervention effect September sowing had lower pathogen incidence in maize landrace seeds.
- Intervention effect A density of 55,000 plants·ha–1 in September gave the best germination result.
- Intervention effect Late sowing decreased maize landrace seed yield.
