e1“application of vermicompost @ 2 t/ha along with 75% RDF and 0.5% foliar application of ZnSO4 (T6) exhibited maximum plant height (250.97 cm), LAI (4.58), dry matter accumulation (1680.38 g/m2), number of grains/cob (402.64), cob length (22.34 cm), grain yield (9.04 t/ha), stover yield (13.50 t/ha), net return (Rs.77112/ha), BCR (2.33) and uptake of N, P2O5 and K2O (200.54, 66.45 and 119.12 kg/ha respectively) over application of 100% RDF”
