Abstract:
An experiment was conducted on “To evaluate the integrated nutrient use on growth and yield of hybrid Maize (Zea mays L.) under central plain zone of Uttar Pradesh” during Kharif 2017, on Soil Conservation and Water Management Farm, CSA University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur on hybrid Maize with three level of inorganic fertilizers (kg/ha) i.e.100% RDF (100 N + 60 P + 40 K+ 20 Zn), 75% RDF (75+45+30+15), & 50% RDF (50+30+20+10) along with three Levels of organic manure viz; 15, 20 & 25 ton FYM/ha. On the basis of overall results it can be concluded that the fertility level 75% RDF + 25 t FYM/ha (F₂+O₃) was found better in all respect as compared to other combinations of fertility management in all respect of growth parameters viz, plant population initial and final stand, plant height, number of functional leaves per plant 30, 60 and at maturity Days to silking, tasselling and maturity.
