Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at Udaipur (Rajasthan) during kharif season of 2014 and 2015 to study the effect of nutrient management approaches on the performance of quality protein maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids at varying plant densities. It is based on the principle of select most suitable nutrient management approach for maize plant densities. The results of experiment revealed that N and P content, uptake and total uptake by crop was significantly higher with STCR approach which was significantly superior to rest of the treatments and remained at par with SSNM. Higher N and P content were obtained in normal density compared to high density. However, N and P uptake by the crop was recorded the highest in high density.
