Grow Maize with Ease in Punjab

A comprehensive guide for cultivating high-yielding maize in the fertile lands of Punjab.

Soil & Climate

Maize thrives best in well-drained, fertile loamy soils with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. Punjab’s semi-arid climate with hot summers and cool winters is ideal for maize cultivation.

Sowing & Spacing

Sow maize seeds in mid-June to early July. Use high-yielding varieties like PMH-1, PMH-2, and Vijay. Maintain row-to-row spacing of 60–75 cm and plant-to-plant distance of 20–25 cm.

Nutrient Management

Apply well-decomposed FYM at field preparation. Follow 120–150 kg N, 60–80 kg P, and 40–60 kg K per hectare. Split nitrogen into three doses at sowing, knee-high, and tasseling.
