Soil fertility, tillage, and mulching effects on rainfed maize grown after rice [study conducted at IRRI, Philippines]

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextLanguage: En Series: IRRI Research Paper Series ; No. 66Publication details: College, Laguna (Philippines) :, 1981Description: 10 pSubject(s): DDC classification:
  • 83-851800
Summary: The nutrient AV was higher in soils after puddled flooded rice than after non puddled flooded rice. However, the high moisture content and compact soil after puddled flooded rice resulted in poorer maize establishment, growth, and yield. Tillage improved soil aeration after puddled flooded rice but reduced nutrient AV. Maize yields from plots not tilled after rice harvest did not differ significantly from those from tilled plots. Maize responded less to fertilizer applied after puddled flooded than after non puddled flooded rice. With complete fertilizer and mulching treatments significantly affected lodging, root and top growth, and grain
