Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Plant height, number of green leaves per plant and leaf area index at 100 days increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Number of ears per feddan, ear length and ear weight increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Weight of kernels per ear, 100-kernel weight and kernel shelling percentage increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Biological, grain and stover yields per feddan increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Harvest index, kernel nitrogen uptake and kernel protein yield increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Leaf and kernel nitrogen contents increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Zinc, manganese and iron contents of maize leaves increased with nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Mid tasseling and silking dates decreased with increasing nitrogen fertilizer rates.
- Intervention effect Application of 130 kg N per feddan gave the maximum values of the maize traits.
- Intervention effect The micronutrient foliar spray with mixed Zn + Mn + Fe was the most effective treatment for growth, yield and yield components of maize.
- Intervention effect Foliar spray with singly Zn gave the highest leaf zinc content in maize.
- Intervention effect Foliar spray with singly Mn gave the highest leaf manganese content in maize.
- Intervention effect The combination of 130 kg N per feddan with mixed Zn + Mn + Fe foliar spray gave the greatest values of plant height, green leaves per plant and leaf area index.
- Intervention effect The combination of 130 kg N per feddan with mixed Zn + Mn + Fe foliar spray gave the greatest values of kernel number, ear and kernel weight, biological yield and grain yield.
- Recommendation Fertilization of maize with 130 kg N per feddan plus mixed Zn + Mn + Fe foliar spray is recommended to maximize grain yield.
