RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Days taken to 50% tasseling. Tasseling is prerequisite of
cob formation and finally the maturity of the crop. The data
(Table III) indicated that corn hybrids had non-significant
effect on days taken to 50% tasseling, on an average this
period extended from 51.50 to 51.78 days. Different
proportions of organic and inorganic fertilizers applied to
corn crop significantly influenced the tasseling period. The
comparison of individual treatment means indicated that
significantly maximum number (52.83) of days taken to
tasseling was recorded when maize crop fertilized @ 100 kg
