e0“The higher dry matter accumulation, crop growth rate, photosynthetic attributes, yield, protein content, protein yield, and carbohydrate yield has been recorded with the application of potassium at a rate of 60 kg K2O ha-1 along with zinc application of 30 kg ZnSO4.7H2O ha-1 which has been found to be statistically superior over farmers adopted practice (30 kg K2O ha-1 along with zinc application of 20 kg ZnSO4.7H2O ha-1).”

- Association Potassium and zinc showed a positive interaction in short-duration dryland maize.
- Intervention effect The 60 kg K2O ha-1 plus 30 kg ZnSO4.7H2O ha-1 treatment raised dry matter accumulation and crop growth rate over farmer practice.
- Intervention effect The higher potassium and zinc treatment improved maize photosynthetic attributes over farmer practice.
- Intervention effect The higher potassium and zinc treatment improved maize protein content and protein yield over farmer practice.
- Intervention effect The higher potassium and zinc treatment improved maize carbohydrate yield over farmer practice.
- Recommendation The authors recommend increased combined potassium and zinc rates to meet short-duration high-yielding maize demand.
