Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted at field no. 6 Student’s Instructural Farm at Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur during the Kharif season 2017 to find out integrated nutrient management effect on maize with ten treatments i.e. T1 (125% RDN), T2 (100% RDN), T3 (100% RDN + 25% N FYM), T4 (100% RDN + 25% N FYM + S30), T5 (100% RDN + 25% N FYM + S30 + Zn5), T6 (75% RDN), T7 (75% RDN + 25% N FYM), T8 (75% RDN + 25% N FYM + S30), T9 (75% RDN + FYM + S30 + Zn5), T10 (Control) in RBD with 3 replications. Maize variety Azad Uttam was taken for study. The results revealed that the grain and stalk yield of maize respond significantly with the different treatment combination. The result showed highest grain yield ( 35.25 q ha-1 ) and stalk yield (97.99 q ha-1) with the application of 100% RDN + 25% N FYM + S30 + Zn5 ha-1, which was 88 % and 63.31 % higher to lowest grain yield ( 18.75 q ha-1 ) and stalk yield ( 60 q ha-1 ) at control. The maximum growth and yield in case of all treatments was found in T5 (100% RDN + 25% N FYM + S30 + Zn5) and lowest in T10 (Control).
