Synopsis

This book explores the response of sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) to varying nitrogen levels and application timings under South Gujarat conditions. Conducted during the rabi season of 2017-18 at NM College of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, the study used a Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD) with four nitrogen levels and four split application treatments. Results showed that increasing nitrogen levels significantly enhanced growth parameters, yield attributes, and economic returns. Among split applications, applying nitrogen in three splits with a higher proportion at the knee height stage proved most effective for maximizing growth and yield. This research underscores the importance of precise nitrogen management to optimize sweet corn production. The findings suggest that adopting region-specific nutrient application strategies enables farmers to enhance productivity while achieving higher profitability. The moral of the book is that sustainable and scientific farming practices not only improve yields and economic outcomes but also contribute to environmentally responsible agriculture.
