Abstract
A field experiment was carried out at Main Forage Research Station, Anand
Agricultural University, Anand to study the “Effect of seed priming on yield and quality
of fodder maize (Zea mays L.)” during rabi season 2020-21. The soil of experimental
unit was loamy sand in texture (locally called as “Goradu” soil) having good moisture
retention and drainage capacity. The soil of the experimental field at 0-15 cm depth was
low in organic carbon (0.25%), medium in available phosphorus (36.20 kg/ha) and
medium to high in available potash (285.60 kg/ha) with pH 7.58 and EC 0.24 dS/m.
