Paper Summary

Irrigating maize with the right amount of water and feeding it with the correct fertilizer mix can make it grow better and produce more corn. Using 1.0 PE for irrigation and 100% recommended fertilizer dose of 150:75:75:10 NPKZn through fertigation led to higher maize yield and better growth compared to traditional soil application.
