Abstract:	This experiment was initiated by the Hiil Crops Research Program (I-ICRP) at the Agriculture Research Station (ARS). Kabre, Dolakha district since I 993/94. The main objective of the experiment was to study the effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on maize/millet cropping systems. The highest grain ields of.millet (2.07 t/ha and 1.39 t/ha in 1998/99 and 1999/2000 respectively) was obtained in 30 t/ha FYM treatment. Similarly. the highest millet straw ' eight (4.57 ha) was also recorded in the same treatment. In case of maize. the highest maize grain yield (5.43 t/ha and 6.0 t/ha in I 998/99 and 19Y9/2000 respectively) \>vas recorded in 120:60:40 kg/ha NPK treatment. Generally. the 30 t/ha FYl\1 and 20 kg N top-dressing in maize showed sustainable grain yield of maize and millet (table- I ).
