Overview

""Effect of INM on Growth, Yield and Quality of Baby Corn (Zea mays L.) under South Gujarat Condition,"" investigates how integrated nutrient management (INM) strategies influence phenology, vegetative growth, yield components and post-harvest quality of baby corn under the agro-climatic conditions of South Gujarat. Field experiments were conducted using randomized block designs to compare conventional inorganic fertilizer schedules, organic amendments (compost, FYM), biofertilizers, and combined INM treatments; key measurements included plant height, leaf area, days to silking, ear number and weight, marketable yield, nutrient uptake, and quality parameters (TSS, protein content, shelf-life indicators). Data were analyzed with appropriate ANOVA and regression techniques to identify statistically significant differences among treatments and to develop nutrient use efficiency and profitability estimates. The findings provide science-based recommendations for optimizing INM packages that enhance productivity, grain/nutrition quality and economic returns of baby corn in South Gujarat, and contribute to sustainable nutrient management guidelines for smallholder.
