Abstract：Selecting maize hybrids , Denghai 605 , Weike 702 , Longping 206 , Nonghua 101 and Liaoyu 23 , widely cultivated in western of Shandong Province as materials , the grain filling rate , dehydration rate , kernel moisture content at harvest time , yield and characteristics suitable for mechanical harvesting were stud-ied.The results showed that the grain filling rate was different between different maize hybrids .The maize hy-brids with higher grain yield , Denghai 605 , Weike 702 and Liaoyu 23 , had higher grain filling rate , but their change trends were different .The grain dehydration rates were also different .Nonghua 101 and Liaoyu 23 had higher dehydration rate and lower kernel moisture content at harvest time .When mechanical harvesting , the Nonghua 101 was less time -consuming with the highest kernel loss rate , while Denghai 605 had the lowest kernel loss rate .
