| Abstract: |
Hybrid maize developed from RML-4 and NML-2 and Deutee, a OPV maize variety were tested for the study of response of 3 levels of nitrogen (60, 120 and 180 kg N ha-1) and 3 plant densities (55,555; 66,666 and 83,333 plants ha-1) in the years 2007/08 and 2008/09 in the acidic soil of NMRP research farm, Rampur, Chitwan. A factorial RCB design with 3 replications was employed in the experiment. The crops were fertilized with basal application of 10 t ha-1 of compost and 60 :40 kg ha-1 of P2O5 and K2O, respectively. Three levels of N were applied in the respective plots, half as basal and the remaining half as topdressing at knee high stage. The crops were planted in September at a spacing of 30 cm x 60 cm, 25 cm x 60 cm and 20 cm x 60 cm, and harvested in Janauary at the full maturity stage. The crops were sown in 18 sq.m. plot. The results showed positive effect of N on the grain production of the both varieties.This paper discuss and highlights the results of N application on Deutee and hybrid maize planted at varying densities.
Key Words: Grain production,hybrid maize, nitrogen levels, plant densities and
significant effect.
