Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on Yield of Maize Crop under Rain-Fed Condition in Eastern Part of Uttar Pradesh, India
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (IJCMAS) - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Effect of “Integrated nutrient management in maize under rainfed condition in Eastern part of U.P.” was conducted during kharif season of 2014-15 and 2015-16 Agronomy Research Farm Narendra Deva University of Agriculture & Technology (Narendra Nagar), Kumarganj Faizabad (U.P.) The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with three replications and twelve treatments. The soil of experimental field was silty loam in texture, poor in organic carbon (0.29%), low in available nitrogen (155.96 kg ha-1) medium in available phosphorus (12.22 kg ha-1) and potassium (314.00kg ha-1) with pH of the soil (7.80). The results obtained during the course of investigation are being included here as under. The maximum grain yield of maize (50.85, 38.28 q ha-1) was recorded with T12, which was significantly superior over all the treatments except T10, T11, T9. Application of ZnSO4 @ 25 kg ha-1or FeSO4 @ 10 kg ha-1 or both jointly with 100 % RDF, the grain yield of maize was increased (10.20%, 9.72%, 17.27%) (7.99%, 7.03%, 19.30%), respectively over 100 % RDF alone during both years and (64.88%, 64.16%, 55.29%, 53.10%, 71.56%) over control. Similarly, application of FYM @ 6 t ha-1or ZnSO4 @ 25 kg ha-1 or FeSO4 @ 10 kg ha-1 or all three jointly applied with 75 % RDF, the grain yield of maize was increased by 11.63%, 21.81%, 20.64%, 26.34 and 12.40%, 22.40%, 19.44% 27.00% over 100 % RDF alone and 66.98%, 82.29%, 80.92%, 89.03% over control during both year.
