Abstract

                                An experiment was conducted at the Research Farm, Meerut University. Meerut during Kharif 1973 and 1974. to study the influence of different nitrogen levels on yield attributes of maize when grown alone and in association with different legumes under rainted conditions. Legumes in association with maize increased the yield and yield attributes of maize grain. Urad was found to be the most suitable companion crop. Application of 120 kg N/ha showed better effect in well distributed rainfall year while application of 80 kg N/ha has equally effective in ill distributed rainfall year. Application of nitrogen proved helpful in increasing the yield and yield attributes of maize while the component crops remained unaffected.
