Statistical Analysis of the Effects of Poultry Manure and NPK Fertilizer on the Yield of Maize
Journal Title: Annals. Computer Science Series - Year 2018, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
This study is aimed at analysing the effects of Poultry manure and NPK fertilizer on fresh weight, dry weight and yield of Maize at the Institute of Agricultural Research and Training, Moore Plantation, Apata, Ibadan in 2015 and 2016 Cropping Sessions. The study adopted the statistical model for analysing the effects of Poultry manure and NPK fertilizer applications on the growth and yield of Maize (Zea Mays). This model was based on factorial experiment and the results obtained showed that poultry manure and NPK fertilizers equally contributed significantly to the fresh plant weights of maize for a bumper harvest while the interaction of the two factors did not indicate any significant difference. In the analysis of dry weight of maize the contribution of the two factors considered was the same to the quality of dry weight of maize.The results also showed that the two factors contributed greatly to the quality and bumper harvest of maize. However, the interaction of the factors gave the impression that poultry manure and NPK fertilizer have equal contributions to the quality and bumper harvest of seed yield of maize.
