A field experiment was conducted at the farm of Hill Tract Agricultural Research Station, Ramgarh, Khagrachari Hill District during Rabi season of 2010-11 and 2011-12 to determine the optimum sowing time for better yield of green cob as well as fodder of sweet corn (var. BARI Sweet corn-1) in the hilly region. Five sowing dates (November 20, November 30, December 10, December 20 and December 30) were included in the study. During 2010-11, the highest green cob yield was obtained from 20 November sowing (8.43 t/ha) followed by 30 November sowing (7.81 t/ha) and the lowest yield (5.00 ton/ha) from 20 December sowing. During 2011-12, the maximum green cob yield (8.60 t/ha) was also obtained from 20 November, which was statistically identical with that of 30 November (8.03 t/ha), 10 December (7.67 t/ha) and 20 December (8.11 ton/ha) sowing. Average of two years result showed that, the maximum fodder yield (39.99 t/ha) was obtained from 30 November sowing which was at par with that of 20 November sowing. Maximum TSS (Total soluble sugar) value of Sweet corn was obtained from 20 November sowing during 2010-11 and 30 November sowing during 2011-12. Across over two years, 20 November to 30 November sowing was found suitable for sweet corn production in the hilly areas in terms of green cob and fodder yield and also TSS value.

To determine the optimum sowing time for better marketable yield of green cob as well as fodder of sweet corn in the hilly areas.

A field experiment was conducted at the farm of Hill Tract Agricultural Research Station, Ramgarh, Khagrachari Hill District during Rabi season of 2010-11 and 2011-12, in the hilly region. The soil of this hill area having acidic soil where p H mostly ranges from 4.5-5.0 belongs to AEZ 29. Five different dates of sowing viz. November 20, November 30, December 10, December 20 and December 30 at 10-days interval were included as treatment variables in the experiment. The trial was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The unit plot size was 4.5m×3.5m. Seeds of sweet corn (var. BARI Sweet corn-1) were sown according to treatment with the spacing of 45 cm×25 cm. The experimental plots were prepared and labeled properly. Lime was also applied due to minimize the soil acidity in hilly areas. Fertilizers at the rate of 150-60-90- 20 kg/ha of NPKS were applied in the form of Urea, Triple Super Phosphate (TSP), Muriate of Potash (MoP) and Gypsum, respectively. The full amount of TSP, MoP, Gypsum and 1/3 of urea were applied as basal dose during final land preparation. The remaining 2/3 of urea were applied as side dressing at 30 and 55 days after emergence. Weeding, irrigation and insecticides spraying were done as when required to maintain an optimum growth condition for the crop. The green cob was harvested at 20-24 days after silking when the corn silks were turned to dry as brown color. The collected data were analyzed statistically and means were separated using LSD test at 5% level of significance.
