Abstract

A field experiment was conducted on student instructional farm (SIF) of Chandra Shekhar AzadUniversity of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur, U.P. during kharif season 2019 and 2020, the present experiment having 32 treatments replicated thrice in factorial randomized block design on same laid out at same location. Hybrid maize variety Pioneer 3377 was sown at 60 × 20 cm (row×plant) during both the years, Soil application of Zinc (5.0 kg) and Iron (10 kg) along with 2.5 tonne vermicompost ha-1 gave significant increase (except plant population) in plant population m-2 (9.23 & 9.26), Plant height (195cm & 198 cm), number of cobs plant-1 (1.80 & 1.82), number of cobs m-2 (18 & 18) over control during 2019 and 2020.
