Effect of Boron and Panchagavya on Growth and Yield of Baby Corn (Zea mays L.)

The experiment was administered in the Crop Research Farm, department of farming all along the summer season of 2022 on baby grain crop. The treatments contained 3 levels of boron (2kg, 3kg, 4 kg/ha) and Panchagavya (2 sprays of 2%, 3%, 4%) as a foliar spray at 15 and 30 DAS and a control. The experiment was planned in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 10 situations and replicated thrice. Application of Boron (4 kg/ha) and Panchagavya (2 sprays of 4%) presented maximum plant crest (135.44 cm), plant dry weight (138.95 g), number of cobs per plant (3.06), pressure of cobs with case (44.85g), pressure of cobs without person who produces crops (8.24g), cob yield accompanying case (7.48 t/ha), cob yield outside husk (3.01 t/ha), green corn yield (41.80 t/ha). Treatment blend with Boron 4 kg/ha and Panchagavya 2 sprays of 4% presented highest gross returns (Rs. 1,44,700/ha), net returns (Rs. 99,845/ha) and benefit cost percentage (2.23) when distinguished to control (RDF).
