Abstract
Experiments indicated that grain yields of 2 t ha' could be obtained from maize grown during Kharif season under rainfed conditions in the red soils of north-westem zone. Varieties Co H1 and K 1 yielded 2037 and 2060 kg grain ha". Plant density of 1,11,000 plants ha¹ with a spacing of 45 x 20 cm was found optimum for high yields. An integrated nutrient management system involving the application of azospirillum through seed and soil recorded an yield of 1119 kg ha¹ under moisture stress conditions and 2296 kg during normal rainfall year. Seed and soil inoculation of azospirillum increased the length and dry weight of roots of rainfed maize.
