Meager information is available on the use of Sesbania in conjunction with-crop residue and N-dose in maize wheat cropping system. Therefore, an attempt was made to substitute the fertilizer N through organic sources in maizewheat cropping sequence. Hence a field experiment was conducted for 2 year from 20062008, on maize ( Zea mays L.)wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. emend. Fiori & Paol) system to evaluate the influence of four organicReferences
