Abstract

The study in relation to “Impact of nutrient management on soil chemical properties and Maize (Zea mays L.) yield” was conducted during the year 2021-22 at Vizianagaram district of Andhra Pradesh. Application of optimal doses of inorganic and organic fertilizers to maize at 5 t FYM ha-1 yearly containing 126:58:45 NPK kg ha-1 and 17 kg Zn ha-1 with highest maize yield of 65.00 q ha-1 as compared to the farmers lower yield of 47 q ha-1 without the optimum dose of inorganic and organic fertilizers to maize. Soils of the study area were acidic to neutral in soil reaction, non-saline and non-calcareous in nature, low in organic carbon in both surface and sub-surface layers.
