| Popis: | Considering the effect of green revolution technologies in rice wheat system and prospects of maize cultivation, studies on INM in maize (Zea mays. L) in upper gangetic plains region were conducted on sandy loam soil, low in organic carbon and available N, medium available P and K with 9.1 kg S ha-1, 0.82 g Zn ha-1, 0.6 g B ha-1 and slightly alkaline in reaction during kharif 2015 at SVPUAT, Meerut to observe the effect of nutrient management practices on (Plant height, Number of functional leaves per plant, plant population at maturity,initial plant population), yield attributes (Cob length, Number of grain rows per cob, Number of grains per row, Number of grains per cob, Grain weight per cob, Test weight etc.) Crop fertilized with 75% NPK + FYM @ 7.5 t + Zn + B + S registered best growth and consequently highest (48.8 q ha-1) grain yield and attributes. Favorable effect of Zn by Lui et al. (1993), B by Hosseini et al. (2007) [3] and S by Channabasamma et al. (2013) [2] on growth and yield of maize have also been obtained. |
