Among the various agronomic factors, proper row spacing and nitrogen are of prime important for enhancing fodder yield of better quality. Plant spacing is one of the important factors that determine the efficient use of land, light, water and nutrients. Among different nutrients, nitrogen is the most commonly deficient nutrient in the soil and gives considerable response in forage maize. Nitrogen is an essential element for both fodder quantity and quality as it is a component of protein and chlorophyll.Maize can be grown to produce fodder in rabi season to solve the problem of livestock feed shortage during this period.
