“…Statistical analysis of the maize germination count revealed a substantial difference between various treatments (Table 1). The maximum germination count was recorded (151.33 plants/plot) by the application of ½ NPK + PSB + SOB, which was statistically equal to et al (2010), our results are closely in line with Jinjala et al (2016).…”

Deficiency of phosphorus can reduce the yield up to 15-20% and its availability to crop plants is the main issue, particularly in calcareous soils of Pakistan. Micro-organisms, phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and sulphur oxidizing bacteria (SOB) have the ability to make P accessible for optimum plant growth, under conditions of nutrients disparity. Therefore, six treatments i.e. control, Yz dose of NPK, full recommended dose of NPK, Yz NPK+ SOB, Yz NPK + PSB and Yz NPK + SOB+ PSB were applied in a field experiment to investigate the integrated role of SOB and PSB with NPK fertilizers for enhancing the maize production. The treatment was concluded to have major impact on agro-morphological traits, seed quality and growth parameters of maize. Results depicted that the use of Yz NPK + SOB + PSB gave maximum germination count/plot (151.33), plant height (189.03 cm), number of ears/plant (1.60), grains/ear (472.33), 1000-grain weight (305.67 g), grain yield (5350.50 Kg/ha), harvest index (31.23%), leaf area (379.77 cm2), total dry matter accumulated (181.43 g/plant), crop growth rate (30.60 g/day), net assimilation rate (9.31 g/day) and protein contents (8.49%).

“…Findings of this study are similar with Shafiq and Tahir (2015) who was reported increase in grain proteins with the application of (PSB) Bacillus subtilis and Vesicular arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM). Similar findings were also conveyed by Jinjala et al (2016).…”

Aim: The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the suitable organic manure to sustain the soil fertility, yield of baby corn and also opt a best alternate crop for rice fallow pulses presumably in missing season.. Materials and Methods: Field experiments were conducted in the Experimental Farm of the Department of Agronomy, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar during summer and kharif season of 2017 in Randomized block design to study the response of baby corn (Zea mays L.) to different organic manures for their growth, yield attributes and cob and green fodder yield.. Result: Among the different treatments, RDF (150:60:40 kg NPK ha-1) had a positive effect on the growth, yield attributes, cob and green fodder yield in baby corn for I and II crops which was at par with the application of vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1. The lowest values of growth, yield attributes and yield were recorded by Farm compost @ 5 t ha-1. Conclusion: Application of fertilizer may be good in the short term for getting maximum yield and net income to the farmers; but, in the long run, to increase the corn quality and sustain the soil fertility, T3 vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 treatment is the best and thus this practice can be recommended to the maize growing farmers in Tamil Nadu.

“…Under greenhouse conditions an increasing dose of a bovine biofertilizer made in a very similar manner as the biofertilizer Microgeo, consistently increased corn height at 60 days after sowing, most likely due the presence of nitrogen in the biofertilizer (Viana et al 2014). Regarding the integrated use of synthetic, organic and biological resources, studies addressing baby corn (Jinjala et al 2016;Dadarwal, Jain, and Singh 2009), sweet corn (Mukhlis and Lestari 2014) and corn (Singh et al 2018) reported that combining synthetic fertilizer þ biofertilizer resulted in taller plants than the application of each resource alone. Moreover, Baloach et al (2014) revealed that the application of biofertilizer alone and in combination with HA increased corn height when compared to the untreated control.…”

Current trends in agriculture have moved toward more sustainable cultivation systems with higher efficiency of input use. A variety of materials, derived from different resources, can serve as a crop nutrient sources. An Integrated Plant Nutrition System (IPNS) uses the combined and harmonious use of inorganic, organic and biological nutrient resources to maximize efficiency of inputs. We evaluated the effects of commercial nitrogen (N) fertilizer, humic acid compounds (HA), compost/manure teas and bioinoculants as inorganic, organic and biological resources, respectively and their synergy over three years on corn (Zea mays L.) in the Mid-Atlantic USA. The individual and combined application of HA and biofertilizer following the IPNS influenced corn height and leaf greenness to varying degrees, most likely due to biostimulant effects. In 2017, corn height, NDVI, greenness and vigor responded positively to biostimulant application to varying magnitudes and growth stages, however grain yield and nutrient content were not affected. In combined studies from 2018 and 2019 corn height was not impacted by biostimulant application but NDVI, photosynthetic efficiency, greenness and vigor were increased at different doses and corn growth stages. The combined use of HA þ biofertilizer (Microlife Humic þ Microgeo) was the only treatment leading to increased grain yield. This study demonstrates that the individual and combined application of HA and biofertilizer can influence corn growth and vigor at various points during the growing season. However, the current study cannot conclusively confirm that the integrated use of HA and biofertilizers (IPNS) is a better practice than the application of each compound individually.
