Effect of nitrogen application through different combinations of urea and farm yard manure on the performance of spring maize (Zea mays L.)

Mohsin, A.
The experiment consisted of the following treatments: T1 = control, T2 = 100% N through FYM, T3 = 25% N through urea and 75% N through FYM, T4 = 50% N through urea and 50% N through FYM, T5 = 75% N through urea and 25% N through FYM, T6 = 100% N through urea. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. Hybrid maize Pioneer 32-W-86 was sown on 16th of February, 2006. The soil samples were collected from 0-15 cm depth to be used for chemical analysis. A representative sample of farmyard manure was also analyzed for chemical characteristics. Data were recorded on plant height (cm), plant population, number of cobs per plant, cob length (cm), cob weight (g), number of grain rows per cob, number of grains per row, grain weight per cob (g), grain yield kg per ha, 1000-grain weight (g) and biological yield kg per ha. The results obtained shows that maximum plant height (211.3 cm) was obtained in T6 treatment where 100% recommenced N was
