Thus integrated use of organic & inorganic sources of nutrients could be higly effective in improving maize yield. So, a study was conducted to evalute the effect of different sources of nitrogen on the production potential of spring maize (Zea mays L.). This book provides a piece of knowledge for upcoming research in the filed of plant nutrition.
