Figure 5

Mulching effects on maize plant emergence, bars with different letter (s) are significantly different from each other at p < 0.05 averaged over 2013 and 2014. 

Figure 6

Maize emergence (pattern bars) and plant density (non-pattern bars) as affected by ratio of farmyard manure (FYM) and urea sources to provide a pool of 250 kg N ha-1 averaged over 2013 and 2014. Different types of bars with different letter (s) are significantly different from each other at p < 0.05.
