Abstract
A pot experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) season of 2020–21 at research farm of Rajiv Gandhi South Campus (Banaras Hindu University), Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh to study the effect of NPK on growth and yield attributes of late sown winter baby corn (Zea mays L.). Treatment consisted of 7 levels of recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) i.e. NPK, viz. control; 20% RDF; 40% RDF; 60% RDF; 80% RDF; 100% RDF; and 120% RDF in completely randomized design, replicated thrice. Each increment in NPK levels, significantly enhanced the growth and yield parameters of baby corn, viz. plant height, leaf area/plant, number of leaves/plant, chlorophyll a and Chlorophyll b, dry weight/plant, first cob harvest and total harvest period, baby cobs/plant, baby corn length and girth, baby cob and baby corn weight, baby cob:baby corn ratio, baby cob, corn and fodder yield (g/plant) up to the highest level than other treatments. The results suggest that late sown winter baby corn can be applied with 150– 75–50 kg NPK/ha for higher yields.
期刊介绍：
Indian Journal of Agronomy welcomes concise articles presenting original research data based on field experiments on all aspects of agronomy in different crops and related cropping systems. • The journal publishes only full length comprehensive articles based on new approaches/findings in English only. • Review articles are also considered but these are normally solicited by Editorial Board. However, the authors who wish to contribute a review on their own based on their standing in the relevant field may contact the Secretary or Chief Editor with a broad outline before submitting the manuscript.
