Abstract: Field experiments were conducted at the experimental farm Department of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar during 2017 to study the productivity and yield maximization of baby corn (Zea mays L.) as influenced by integrated nutrient management practices and foliar application. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and twelve treatments. Among the twelve treatments, T12 (100% RDN + vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 + 3 sprays of 3% panchagavya) exerted significant influence on yield and economics, the higher net return of Rs. 98287 was obtained with conjoint application of 100% RDN + vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 + 3 sprays of 3% panchagavya. The higher return per rupee was also recorded in the same treatment (T12) as 3.00 while the lower (1.5) was recorded in the control (T1).
