Timely sown maize hybrids improve the post-anthesis dry matter accumulation, nutrient acquisition and crop productivity
Abstract Delayed sowing of maize hybrids could exacerbate the capability of maximizing the yield potential through poor crop stand, root proliferation, nutrient uptake, and dry matter accumulation coupled with the inadequate partitioning of the assimilates. This study appraised the performance of fi...
