This study was carried out at Al-Meriayah Research Station in Deir Ez-Zor governorate during 2010 and 2011. Maize varieties and hybrids i.e. Ghouta<sub>82<\/sub>, Ghouta<sub>1<\/sub>, Basel<sub>1<\/sub> and Basel<sub>2<\/sub> were cultivated in the intensive planting time, every ten days starting on the first of June. The results showed that the total costs increased with the delay of planting date with an average about 1149.2, 1473.04 and 1501.17 dollar\/ha in the first, second and third sowing dates respectively in 2011. The maximum and minimum average of costs were about 1384.1 and 1183.41 dollar\/ha for Basel<sub>1<\/sub> hybrid and Ghouta<sub>82<\/sub> variety, respectively in 2010. The total revenue was positively correlated with the date of sowing. The lowest total revenue was detected in Gouta<sub>82, <\/sub>but Bessel<sub>1<\/sub> achieved the highest value. As a result, Basel<sub>1 <\/sub>hybrid achieved the highest net profit (542.97 dollar\/ha) in 2010, as well as the third date of sowing (21<sup>st<\/sup> July) gave the highest net profit (679.4 dollar\/ha) in 2011.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key words<\/strong>: Net profit index, Agricultural practices, Maize Stem-Borers.<\/p>\n<p>Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/v6n3p29.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ebraheem Al-Jouri*(1) (1).
