NUTRIENT UPTAKE IN MAIZE UNDER VARYING IRRIGATION REGIMES, SOIL, AMENDMETNS AND IRRIGATION LAYOUTS

Abstract

Effect of 4 levels of imigation (all furrow, alternate furrow, skip furrow and paired row furrow; 2 levels of IW/CPE ratio (0.6 & 0.75) and 2 levels of amendments (coconut fibre waste. farmyard manure) on the nutrient uptake in maize was investigated. Irrigating maize based on 0,75 irrigation ratio under paired row furrow method of irrigation with coconut fibre waste increased the uptake of nutrients besides water economy.

Keywords: Irrigation layouts, IW/CPE ratio, nutrient uptake
