To understand the viscoelastic characteristics (i.e. hardness) of the maize (Zea Mays L.) grain in relation to high-temperature drying, a breakage tester (HT-I drop tester) was developed and single-grain breakage at various grain temperatures and times after drying was determined. Both hard and soft

## Abstract The effects of maize (__Zea mays__ L) grain hardness, morphological factors (grain size and shape), drying rate and the development of stress cracking over time were investigated for four hybrids (Hmv565 − 3 × E1386, CF06, CF05 and Furio). The re‐parametrised Morgan–Mercer–Flodin (MMF)
