Abstract:
A discipline experiment became performed for the duration of Rabi season of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at Agricultural Farm of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Pahanda (A), Durg, Chhattisgarh. To test the effect of phosphorus and zinc utility on increase and seed yield of fodder maize (Zea mays L.) in a vertisol. The test turn out to be specified in cut up plot format with three replications and 16 treatment mixtures. The primary plot made out of 4 phosphorus ranges (0, 30, 60 and ninety kg P205 ha^-1) and sub plot consisted four levels of ZnS04 (0, 10, 20 and 30 kg ZnS04 ha^-1). The consequences located out that the software program of ninety kg P2O5 ha^-1 and 30 kg ZnSO4 ha^-1 recorded extensively higher plant pinnacle (212, 213 and 213 cm), quantity of grains cob-1 (349, 356 and 352 grains cob^-1) and (337, 340 and 338 grains cob^-1), grain yield (24.Thirteen, 25.01 and 24.57 q ha^-1) and (21.69, 21.75 and 21.80) in addition to Stover yield (45.40, forty six. Ninety and forty six.16 q ha^-1) and (39.90, forty one.17 and 40.Fifty 4 q ha^-1) of fodder maize for seed cause. But, it became much like 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 and 20 kg ZnSO4 ha^-1, respectively.
