Abstract

A field experiment was carried out during rainy seasons (kharif) of 1995 and 1996 in the mid-hill sub-humid agroclimate of north-western Himalayan region at Bajaura to work out the nitrogen requirement and its schedule of split application in baby Com (Zea mays). Baby com yield (1 450 kg/ha) increased significantly up to 150 kg N/ha application, whereas cob yield with husk and fodder yield registered significant increase up to 200 kg N/ha. Nitrogen applied in 3 equal splits (each at sowing, 25 and 40 days atrer sowing) gave sigllificantiy highest baby corn yield (l5I7 kg/ha). Highest net return (Rs 48 481/ha) and net return/rupee invested (Rs 1.44) were obtained with 200 kg N/ha applied in 3 equal splits.
