Abstract: | The effect of seed coating agent of Manyijia on maize growth and yield was correctly evaluated by the method of field plot experiment compared with the conventional agent. The results showed that the coating agent of Manyijia increased maize seedling emergence rate by 5.8%, the rate of being strong plant by 3.3%. Meanwhile, it also promoted the growth of maize, e.g. increasing plant height by 7.42% and root weight by 18.71%. Finally, the drying weight of ear and grain were increased by 4.95% and 6.50%, respectively, which leaded to an increase yield (14% standard water) of 7.08%. Therefore, the seed coating agent of Manyijia is suitable to be widely applied in this area under the condition of recommended dosage. |
