Abstract: |
A field experiment was conducted to evaluaie the residual effect of summer legumes, r.onlegumes as a green manures and application of traditional farm waste and farm yard manures on the winter maize production in the year 2000 and 2001 summer & winter seasons at the National Maize Research Program farm Rampur. The residual effect of in situ green manuring using five summer legumes, two non-legumes and application of 10 tlha farm waste & form yard manures was significant in increasing the winter maize grain yield. Maize that was planted 40- .:/5 days after the incorporation of szmn hemp biomass produced the highest maize grain yield (4.223 tlha) followed by sesbania green manuring. The response of mai~e yield to soyberm, cowpea, sesame, maize and farm waste manuring was observed low and non significant compared to szmn hemp, muczma, and sesbania. But maize d1y matter production and that was added to soil was found higher. The lowest maize yield was found on the fallow treatment (control). These results showed that the increased winter maize yield was the contribution of dry matter of green manures and symbiotically fixed nitrogen by the summer green manure legume crops. A significant interaction was also oberseved between the year and treahnent. |
