- Intervention effect Plant heights, leaf area index (LAI) were significantly affected by sowing date in maize.
- Intervention effect days to 50% flowering and biomass were significantly affected by sowing date in maize.
- Intervention effect Plant heights, leaf area index (LAI) were significantly affected by poultry manure application in maize.
- Intervention effect days to 50% flowering and biomass were significantly affected by poultry manure application in maize.
- Observation Maize plant height ranged from 3.9 to 10.80 cm at two weeks after sowing across sowing date and manure combinations.
- Observation Maize plant height reached 48.3 cm at six weeks after sowing.
- Intervention effect Delaying sowing increased the days to 50% flowering of maize.
- Intervention effect Higher poultry manure levels increased the days to 50% flowering of maize.
- Observation Days to 50% flowering of maize varied from 50 to 73 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect April 7 sown maize treated with poultry manure had a higher crop growth rate.
- Intervention effect April 7 sown maize treated with poultry manure gave higher grain yield and 1000-grain weight.
- Intervention effect The maximum maize grain yield, 5.77 t ha-1, was obtained from April 7 sowing with 5.0 t ha-1 poultry manure.
- Intervention effect The maximum maize 1000-grain weight was obtained from April 7 sowing with 5.0 t ha-1 poultry manure.
- Recommendation April 7 sowing with 5.0 t ha-1 poultry manure is recommended as the best sowing date and manure level for maize growth and yield on the rainforest ultisol.
