Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Recommended NPK with Zn and B gave significantly higher LAI at 90 days, 2.46cm2, statistically similar to the other micronutrient treatments.
- Observation NPK with Zn and B gave the highest early plant height.
- Observation Plant height was statistically similar across treatments at later growth.
- Observation Farmer practice had the longest time to 50% tasseling, 74 days.
- Observation NPK with Zn and B had the shortest time to 50% tasseling, 69days.
- Observation Cob length with recommended NP2O5K2O + Zn+ B was 16.650cm.
- Observation Cob length with recommended NP2O5K2O + B was 16.725cm.
- Observation Cob length with recommended NP2O5K2O + Zn was 16.5cm.
- Observation Sterility with recommended NP2O5K2O +Zn+ B was 9.5%.
- Observation Sterility with recommended NP2O5K2O + B was 9.5%.
- Observation Sterility with Rec. NPK +Zn was 11.2%.
- Intervention effect NPK with Zn and B gave the highest grain yield, 9.01ton/ha, compared with farmer practice.
- Intervention effect NPK with Zn and B gave the highest harvest index, 0.45, compared with farmer practice.
- Intervention effect NPK with Zn and B gave the highest benefit cost ratio, 1.92, compared with farmer practice.
- Recommendation The authors recommend NPK 150:60:40 plus Zn and B to maximize maize yield.
