Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Foliar nitrogen application delayed phenological development of maize compared with water spray.
- Intervention effect Foliar nitrogen application increased biomass, grain yield and harvest index of maize compared with water spray.
- Intervention effect Late foliar nitrogen application (45 and 60 DAE) increased plant height, leaf area and biomass of maize compared with early application (15 and 30 DAE).
- Intervention effect Late foliar nitrogen application (45 and 60 DAE) increased grain yield of maize compared with early application (15 and 30 DAE).
- Recommendation Late foliar nitrogen application (urea, CAN or AS) about one week before tasseling up to silking could increase maize productivity.
