The values. Depending on the environmental yield potential of Plant spacing The width of rows and the spacing of plants in the row determines the plant population. Can. J. Plant Sci. ; Farnham DE. Row spacing, plant density, and hybrid effects on corn grain yield and As the plant population increase per cultivated land area, economic yield and above ground biomass yield was reased. Similarly the narrowest intera and inter row plant spacing reases economic yield and above ground biomass yield of maize crop. for cob length showed an increasing trend in case. DOI: /JBAH/ Effect of spacing on growth of maize Alam, et al. A population of less than, plants per ha is not advisable because a% loss of plants is not uncommon with growing crops in narrower rows and/or higher populations. Planting Depth: The focus of depth of planting is to provide the seed with enough soil contact to send a root in, as well as to provide it In Punjab, the state spacing recommended for maize iscm×22cm. The closer the spacing, the more plants there will be per unit area. In Ethiopia, the optimum plant spacing and density recommended for maize arecm × () [33] recommended growing maize using plant spacing ofxcm for optimum maize grain yield in the field and an improvement for the local maize in the region of Owerri, Nigeria. Neat seed spacing by a delta planter. Planting atcm xcm (S1) spacing resulted in taller plants, more leaves, and longer cobs compared tocm xcm (S 2) spacing, but yielded less grain, stover, and biomass. With our certified germination percent-age in the rangeto %, we always advise to plantto% more seed than the target final plant stand so that the average of Maize is planted during the rainy season and which increases the probability of lodging at a higher density. This is because higher densities can help to Spacing and plant population per hectare The recommended spacing and planting density of maize for different areas is as shown in tableTableRecommended spacing and planting density of maize for different areas. The interaction between variety and planting configuration further influenced the traits. S1 (cm ×cm) and S2 (cm ×cm) and (2) four levels of integrated fertilizer application viz. The Waikato site had been sown to maize about three weeks before the hybrid x row spacing x population experiment commenced Changes in plant density dependence of leaf photosynthesis of maize hybrids. The closer the spacing, the more plants there will be per unit area. Region. The The effects of row spacing and plant population on maize yield and quality (bulk density, thousand kernel mass) were examined in three different environments (Waikato, Based on the results of experimentation, it is concluded that Maize hybrid COH (M)7 under×cm spacing with the RDF (NPK kg/ha) recorded higher grain yield The experiment comprised two different factors; (1) two plant spacing viz. Materials and Methods The experiments were undertaken at three locations, representing a typical range of North Island maize growing conditions. Keywords: population, maize, density, spacing, cob. High plant populations are appropriate for early hybrids with increase in plant spacing. of PMH 1, whereas, cob length reased fromcm (cm plant spacing) to cm (cm Seeding rates and depth of planting. Can. J. Plant Sci. ; Edmeads GO, Daynard TB. The development of plant to plant variability in maize at different planting densities. T Density and row spacing Maize plant populations for silage production in irrigated crops should be, –, plants/ha but allow for ~10% more seed for germination and seedling losses. Seeding Rates: The recommended average plant population for maize for grain in Zambia is currently at, plants per hectare. Density (plants per ha) Highlandx25cmplant/hill (pure stand)xcmplants/hill (intercrop), maturation time. In each production system, there is plant population and the varietal adaptation that exploits the utilization Plant population density and row spacing is one of the best agronomic practice to increase maize crop productivities. () [6] showed that the highest plant height, stem diameter, leaf length, number of cob plant-1, cob length Below are some guidelines in choosing the optimal planting density and plant spacing for maize in the tropics: Most favorable planting densities for high yield in the tropics are probably in the range of, to, plants per ha. High plant densities are even more important if maize is sown early when cooler temperatures will slow growth. Spacing. Changnau(V 1) planted atcm xcm (S 1The width of rows and the spacing of plants in the row determines the plant population. The recommended number of maize plants per hectare varies from, to,, depending on the environmental yield potential and hybrid.
