Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at the Main Maize Research Station,
Anand Agricultural University, Godhra to study the "Influence of bioorganics and
levels of chemical fertilizers on the growth, yield and post harvest quality of sweet
corn (Zea mays L.,saccharata) cv. Madhuri.” The soil of experimental plot was
sandy loam in texture. The soil was low in organic carbon and nitrogen, medium in
available phosphorous and high in potassium, during both the years. The
experiment was laid out in randomized block design with four replication and
fifteen treatments. The fifteen treatments comprised of four levels of bioorganics
i.e. FYM, VC, biofertilizers (ABA-1 + PSB-16) and no biofertilizers and three
levels of chemical fertilizers (50% RDF, 75% RDF and 100% RDF) with
additional treatments T13 (application of 10 t ha-1 FYM + 2.5 t ha-1 VC and seed
