Abstract

An experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif) season of 2019 at Sadopur, Haryana, to study the effect of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth, yield and economics of hybrid maize (Zea mays L.) production. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design, replicated thrice, during AugustDecember 2019. The results revealed that 75% recommended dose of fertilizer + vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha + ZnSO4 @ 25 kg/ha resulted in maximum yield attributes, i.e. cobs, grains/cob, 1,000-seed weight and net returns, and this treatment was found to be best integrated nutrient-management option for higher productivity of hybrid maize
