Nutrient management in the silking stage is an important measure to increase the size of the cob in maize crop. Silking stage in maize crop starts in 45-50 days after sowing.

nutrition management

For higher yield of Maize, use Urea @ 35 kg + Calbor (Calcium 11% + Magnesium 1.0% + Sulphur 12% + Potassium 1.7% + Boron 4%) @ 5 kg per acre.

Urea:- Urea is the biggest source of nitrogen supply in Maize crops. By its use, there is no problem of yellowing and drying in the leaves. Urea accelerates the process of photosynthesis.

 Calbor

This product contains a combination of Calcium 11% + Magnesium 1.0% + Sulphur 12% + Potassium 1.7% + Boron 4% which are essential for nutrition, growth, photosynthesis, transport of sugars and cell wall formation. Calbor is compatible with most commonly used fertilizers and agricultural chemicals.

necessary spraying

When Maize crop start silk formation upto 5 to 10% , then at this stage, Spray Nutriful Maxx  (Fulvic  Acid Extract 20% + Calcium, Magnesium and potassium in trace amounts – 5% + Amino Acids) @ 250 ml or Double (Homobrassinolide 0.04% w/w) @ 100 ml per acre, @ 150 to 200 liters of water.
