Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Zinc at 27 kg ha-1 maximized maize leaf area index at 5.16 relative to lower rates and the no-zinc control.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 27 kg ha-1 maximized maize crop growth rate at 20.26 g m-2 day-1.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 27 kg ha-1 maximized maize 1000-grain weight at 255.03 g.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 27 kg ha-1 maximized maize harvest index at 34.5%.
- Intervention effect Full irrigation gave the greatest improvement in maize growth and yield.
- Intervention effect Skipping irrigation at tasseling impaired maize growth and yield relative to skipping it at knee height.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that 27 kg ha-1 soil-applied zinc with normal irrigation improves autumn maize growth and yield.
