Abstrak.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh jenis mikoriza dan populasi tanaman terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil jagung manis, serta interaksi antara jenis mikoriza dengan populasi tanaman terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil jagung manis. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan November 2017 sampai Januari 2018 di Desa Blang Krueng, Kecamatan Baitussalam, Kabupaten Aceh Besar. Rancangan Penelitian yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) pola faktorial 3 x 2 dengan  3 ulangan. Faktor yang diteliti yaitu jenis mikoriza dan populasi tanaman. Faktor jenis mikoirza terdiri dari 3 taraf yaitu ; mikoriza glomus mosseae, gigaspora dan campuran. Faktor populasi tanman terdiri atas 2 taraf yaitu : satu benih dan dua benih. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penggunaan jenis mikoriza campuran secara umum menghasilkan pertumbuhan dan  hasil  tanaman jagung yang lebih baik. Sedangkan populasi tamanan yang terbaik adalah satu tamanan. Selanjutnya Interaksi yang lebih baik terdapat  pada jenis mikoriza campuran dengan  populasi tamanan pada parameter diameter batang 15 HST dan 30 HST, berat basah akar dan berat buah berkelobot, diameter tongkol,berat buah tampa kelobot dan potensi hasil per hektar. The effect of Mycoriza Types and Number of Crop Populations on Growth and Yield of Sweet CornAbstractThis research purposes to know the effect of mycoriza types and the population of  the plants toward the growth and yield of sweet corn and the interaction between mycoriza types and the population of  the plants to the growth and yield of sweet corn. This research was carried out in November 2017 until Januari 2018 at Blang Krueng village, Baitussalam sub-district, Aceh Besar Regency and Physiology Laboratory, faculty of Agriculture, Syiah Kuala University. This research was conducted Randomized Block Design factorial pattern 3 x 2 with 3 replications. The factors studied in this research are mycoriza types and the population of  the plants. 3 types of mycoriza types are glomus mosseae mycoriza, gigaspora and the mixture of glomus mosseae and gigaspora. and 2 types of the population of  the plants are using one seed and two seed. The result of this research pointed out that the using of the mixture mycoriza type generally increased the growth and yield of sweet corn.  Whereas, the using of the population  of  the plants with one seed had showed the best result. And the better interaction is obtained in the mixture mycoriza with the population of  the plants in there after a good interaction is present in mixed mycorrhizae species with plan population on the diameter of tehstem 15 HST and 30 HST, the weight of the root base and the weight of the weighted fruit, the diameter of the cob weight of the without any weight fruit and the potential yield per hactare.

A field investigation was conducted during the kharif season of 2014 to optimize N doses and planting densities for enhanced growth and yield performance of maize under rainfed conditions of Nagaland. Application of N @ 80 kg/ha resulted in higher N uptake and enhanced growth of maize ultimately expressing superior yield attributes and registering the highest grain and stover yields of 3518.5 and 6976.01 kg/ha respectively. Maintaining a planting density of 55,555 plants/ha at a spacing of 60 cm x 30 cm was found to provide optimum crop stand in maize resulting in higher N uptake and favourable growth consequently recording better yield attributes and maximum grain yield of 2941.66 kg/ha. However, higher planting density of 74,074 plants/ha at a spacing of 45 cm x 30 cm was found to be more effective for higher stover yields up to 6772.63 kg/ha.

A field experiment entitled, “Integrated weed management in Kharif maize (Zea mays L.)” was conducted during Kharif, 2020 at Post Graduate Research Farm, RCSM College of Agriculture, Kolhapur. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) having three replications and twelve treatments. The soil of the experimental plot was medium black clay (vertisol) with 90 cm depth, low in available N (250 kg ha-1), high in available P2O5 (30.60 kg ha-1) and medium in available K2O (290.67 kg ha- 1). The status of organic carbon content (0.34%) was low. The electrical conductivity and pH values were 4.2 dSm-1 and 7.10, respectively.Weed free check and tank mixure application of Tembotrinone 42 SC @ 120gm a.i.ha-1 + Atrazine 50 WP @ 500 gm a.i.ha-1 + surfactant @ 2ml/l of water EPoE At 20-25 DAS + fb hand weeding at 40 DAS were on par with each other and recorded significantly the higher growth and yield contributing characters viz., plant height (cm), number of functional leaves plant-1, leaf area plant-1(dm2), dry matter plant-1(g), length of cob (cm), diameter of cob(cm), number of grains, weight of grains cob-1and test weight resulting into significant increase in grain and straw yields of maize as compared to remaining weed management treatments. Tank mixure application of Tembotrinone 42 SC @ 120gm a.i.ha-1 + Atrazine 50 WP @ 500 gm a.i.ha-1 + surfactant @ 2ml/l of water EPoE At 20-25 DAS + fb hand weeding at 40 DAS recorded minimum dry weight of weed, highest weed control efficiency (86.94 %) and lowest weed index (1.79%).Significantly lowest values for growth, yield and yield attributes as well as weed control efficiency was observed in weedy check treatment.
