The production of hard yellow corn (MAD) could increase its yield and benefit producers and society by taking advantage of existing technology, especially certified seed; therefore, the objective is to determine the economic, social and environmental benefits of releasing certified seeds of hard yellow corn (Zea mays L.) in Bajo Piura. 70 MAD producers were surveyed. To estimate economic benefits for the producer, the Partial Budget Model was used in a risk environment. The social benefits are estimated with the Surplus Change model with a Montecarlo simulation and to evaluate environmental improvements, the change in the Environmental Impact Coefficient was estimated. Among the results, it is found that, due to the increase in yield per hectare (29 percent), the producer's profit margin increases by 62.2 percent (S/ 2 557.2) per hectare, the profitability with certified seed grows to 96 percent, while with non-certified seed it reaches 64 percent, and the Marginal Cost Benefit Index is 1.17, with 80,2 percent positive scenarios. Consumers increase surpluses by 45 million soles, producers by 89 million and the social surplus grows by 135 million. For the country, the investment in the generation and transfer of a high-performance certified seed is profitable, since the Net Present Value amounts to 128 million soles, with 95 percent positive scenarios, and an Internal Rate of Return of 103 percent. The Environmental Impact Coefficient (EIQ) would be reduced by 73.6 percent, by replacing non-certified seed with certified seed in the production of MAD in Piura, as a consequence of the lower use of pesticides that contain the active ingredients Chlorpyrifos and Thiodicarb. It is advisable to replicate similar research in other products.
