Abstract:
The study was conducted at BSU Experimental area, Balili, La Trinidad, Benguet from January to June 2010 to evaluate the growth and seed yield of different corn varieties; determine the best organic fertilizer that could give improvement on seed yield in corn, determine the best combination of corn variety and organic fertilizer on seed production, and determine the economic benefits of producing corn applied with different organic fertilizers.
Chicken dung and carabao manure promoted higher corn seed yield. Among the three varieties tested, native corn was best performing in terms of growth, marketable seed yield and total yield under La Trinidad, Benguet condition.
Native corn applied with chicken dung produced the highest yield and profit under La Trinidad, Benguet condition.
