Abstract
Physical dimensions, sphericity, true/bulk density, porosity, static coefficient of friction and angle of repose of two maize varieties, Kisan and Hi-starch were determined in the moisture range of 12 to 43% (db). In general the values of all the physical properties except true/bulk density, increased when moisture was increased from 8-12% to 43% (db).
