Data on influence of different nitrogen fertilizer rates and plant density on grain yield and yield components of Water Efficient Maize (WEMA) variety

Plant density and applications of nitrogen fertilizer have been recognized as the main crop management techniques to improve maize yield. The data showed effect of different nitrogen fertilizer rates and plant density on grain yield and yield components of water efficient maize. A Field experiment w...

description Plant density and applications of nitrogen fertilizer have been recognized as the main crop management techniques to improve maize yield. The data showed effect of different nitrogen fertilizer rates and plant density on grain yield and yield components of water efficient maize. A Field experiment was conducted during the 2015/16 and 2016/17 planting seasons in two (Taung and Mafikeng) localities of North–West Province, South Africa to evaluate the influence of N fertilizer rates and plant density on grain yield and yield components of Water Efficient Maize (WEMA) variety. The experiment was laid out in split plot fitted into a randomized complete block design with four replicates in each site. The main plot effect was three plant densities (33333, 44444 and 55555 plants/ha) and nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg N ha(−1)) constituted the subplot. The parameters measured were grain yield and grain yield components. Data were analyzed with analysis of variance (ANOVA) of GenStat 11th edition. Differences in the treatment means were tested by Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at 5% level of probability. Regression and correlation analyses were used to determine relationship between grain yield, yield components and nitrogen rates.
