Resumo: In recent times corn cropping has been discredited by Brazilian farmers due to its low profitability. A possible solution for this problem may be in a kind of agriculture based in traditional agronomic principles. The landrace maize, a race of great genetic variability and high rusticity, makes possible to obtain profitable yields in a system that ranges from medium to low technology input. The objective of this study was to evaluate the productivity and profitability of a landrace maize, in Cerrado conditions, in Mineiros (Goiás State, Brazil). The sowing was carried out on December 12th, 2005, and the harvest on May 14th, 2006. The parameters evaluated were grain yield, percentage of impurities, humidity, and rotten grains. The landrace maize average yield obtained in this research was 4,742 kg ha-1, with a profitability of 112%. Considering its low production cost, this race of maize can be characterized as an option for agriculture under a low input level. KEY-WORDS: Rusticity; profitability; production cost.

A cultura do milho vem sofrendo, nos últimos tempos, desprestígio perante os agricultores brasileiros, devido, principalmente, à sua baixa rentabilidade. Uma solução para esse problema talvez esteja em uma agricultura embasada em princípios agronômicos tradicionais. O milho crioulo, raça de grande variabilidade genética e alta rusticidade, possibilita o cultivo sob um sistema de médio a baixo investimento tecnológico e a obtenção de produtividades rentáveis. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a produtividade e a rentabilidade do milho crioulo em condições de Cerrado, em Mineiros - GO. A semeadura foi realizada em 12/dez./2005 e a colheita em 14/maio/2006. Os caracteres avaliados foram a produtividade de grãos, porcentagens de impurezas, umidade e grãos ardidos. A produtividade média do milho crioulo foi de 4.742 kg ha-1 e a taxa de retorno de 112%. Considerando-se o baixo custo de produção empregado, esta raça de milho caracteriza-se como uma opção para a agricultura sob baixo nível de investimento em insumos.
