Abstract:
The investigation was carried During the Kharif season of 2021-22, at the Agricultural Research Farm of the Department of Genetics & Plant Breeding, School of Agricultural Sciences, GHRU (MP), 15 maize genotypes and checks (African tall) were planted in Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD), with fifteen observations under study. That was Plant height, number of leaves per plant, leaf area, stem girth, inter nodal length, leaf stem ratio, brix's value, crude protein yield per plant, crude protein yield per plant per day, green fodder yield per plant per day, dry matter yield per plant, green fodder yield per plant, dry matter yield per plant, green fodder yield per plant Association and path coefficient study show that plant height, number of leaves per plant, green fodder production per plant per day, stem girth, dry matter yield per plant per day, and crude protein yield per plant per day all have a significant correlation and a larger direct influence. This implied that these personalities will improve. improve the efficacy of selection for increased fodder output in fodder maize.
