Effect of fertilizer levels and Bio-fertilizer on green cob yield of corn (Zea mays L.)
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: Result of a field study conducted during summer 2017 showed that the combined application of 100% RDF + PSB produced significantly more cob and green fodder yields than other treatments. Highest plant growth (plant height and stem girth) and green fodder yield was recorded with the application of 150% RDF + PSB while, yield attributes, green cob yield was maximum with the application of treatment 100% RDF + PSB. Treatment 100% RDF + PSB was recorded higher net returns over rest of the treatments (Rs. 97466.66 ha-1) and B: C ratio (2.77). This is an important finding in green cob and fodder production of corn.
