Abstract :

     In order to investigate of manure consumption on used efficiency in corn (SC704) an experiment was conducted in agricultural researches center of Hajiabad in Hormozgan. The experimental design was CRBD with four replications. Main plots were considered as four irrigation methods (irrigation of one side of hills to full growth, one side of hills Till steming and then from Two sides, one side of hills Till flowering then from Two sides irrigation) and four amounts of manure (0, 10, 20 and 30 ton/ha) were considered as subplots. Results showded that irrigation method and using manure have significant effects on water used efficiency, yield, 1000 cernel weight, biomass, number of grain per row and stem diameter (p<0.01). Maximum grain yield was related to Two side irrigation by 10070 kg/ha when 30 ton/ha manure. Also Maximum dry matter was related to notice trait.
