Effect of Nitrogen on Grain Production of Hybrid Maize (RML-4/NML-2) in the Acid Soil of Rampur, Chitwan / Adhikary, Bishnu H.

Public ISBD Title : Effect of Nitrogen on Grain Production of Hybrid Maize (RML-4/NML-2) in the Acid Soil of Rampur, Chitwan Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, Bishnu H., Author ; B.R.

(Full paper 10 p). Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Grain  yield;  hybrid  maize;  plant  densities;  nitrogen  rates  and  significant  effect Abstract: Hybrid maize (RML-4/NML-2) was evaluated for its grain production by the application of different levels of nitrogen (60, 120 and 180 kg N ha-1) at varying plant densities (55555, 66666 and 83383 plants/ha) along with 60 kg P2O5 and 40 kg K2O ha-1 in the acidic soil (pH 5.3) of National Maize Research Program, Rampur, Chitwan during the years of 2008/09 and 2009/10. Factorial randomized complete block design(RCBD) with three replications was employed in the experiment. The crop was planted at the plot size of 18 m2 (3.6 × 5 m). The crop was planted in the month of September and harvested in February. The result indicated a sharp response of nitrogen application to this crop whereas the effect of density was observed to be non-significant. Two years mean yield results showed that highest grain yield (11.10 t ha-1) was recorded when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen and with 83383 plants ha-1 followed by the crop supplied with 120 kg N ha-1 and 66,666 plant population (10.69 t ha-1). It is inferred that application of high dose of N (180 kg N ha-1) could help increase hybrid maize grain production in acidic soils.

Effect of Nitrogen on Inbred Maize Seed Production Planted at Varying Densities in the Acidic Soil at Rampur, Chitwan / Adhikary, Bishnu H.

Public ISBD Title : Effect of Nitrogen on Inbred Maize Seed Production Planted at Varying Densities in the Acidic Soil at Rampur, Chitwan Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikary, Bishnu H., Author Publication Date: 2008 General note: In: Proceedings of the Abstracts. pp 19. Fifth National Conference of Science and Technology organized by Nepal Academy of Science and Technology (NAST) held on 10-12 November, 2008 (Kartik 25-27, 2065) at Kathmandu, Nepal (full paper 10 p). Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Grain  and  stover  yield;  maize  inbred;  nitrogen  levels;  plant  density  significant  effect. Abstract: Attempts have been made to summarise and highlight research findings on the seed production of maize inbred through the use of different levels of nitrogen to the crop planted at varying densities. Series of experiments on NML-1 inbred were conducted in acidic soil (5.1 pH) during the year 2003 and 2004 at the farmland of NMRP, Rampur to evaluate the effect of nitrogen and plant densities on the grain production of maize inbred. A factorial RCBD with three replications was employed in the experiment for the two consecutive years. Nitrogen at 60, 120 and 180 kg N /ha was applied and plant densities at 55,555; 66,666 and 83,383 plants/ ha were maintained in the experiment. Crop growth and yield parameters were analyzed statistically. The results revealed that crop growth (plant and ear height) was observed to be non-significant by the effect of the crop density; however the effect of density and nitrogen on stover production was observed to be significantly affected. The highest stover yield (7.7 t / ha) was produced by the crop planted at the density of 66,666 plants/ha when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha. The highest number of kernels per kernel row (24.3 kernels / row) was observed at this level of N and plant densities. The effect of nitrogen and density on thousand grain weight was also found to be significant. Two-years mean result revealed that highest seed yield (2.85 t/ha) was obtained when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha and plant densities at 66,666 plants ha. Increased seed yield of NML-1 inbred could be obtained with increasing rate of nitrogen application upto the density of 83,383 plants/ ha.

Crop growth and yield parameters were analyzed statistically. The results revealed that crop growth (plant and ear height) was observed to be non-significant by the effect of the crop density; however the effect of density and nitrogen on stover production was observed to be significantly affected. The highest stover yield (7.7 t / ha) was produced by the crop planted at the density of 66,666 plants/ha when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha. The highest number of kernels per kernel row (24.3 kernels / row) was observed at this level of N and plant densities. The effect of nitrogen and density on thousand grain weight was also found to be significant. Two-years mean result revealed that highest seed yield (2.85 t/ha) was obtained when the crop was supplied with 180 kg nitrogen /ha and plant densities at 66,666 plants ha. Increased seed yield of NML-1 inbred could be obtained with increasing rate of nitrogen application upto the density of 83,383 plants/ ha.
