A field experiment was carried out during the spring season of 2017 at research field of National Maize Research Programme (NARC), Rampur, Chitwan to evaluate the effect of sole and combined applications of different organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth parameters and profitability maize cultivation practices. The recommended dose of nitrogen (120 kg ha-1) was supplied through Urea, Farm Yard Manure (FYM) and Poultry Manures (PM) in different ratios. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) having four replications and eight treatments; i.e., T1 (120 kg N ha-1 as Urea), T2 (60 kg N ha-1 as Urea+60 kg N ha-1 as FYM), T3 (60 kg N ha-1 as Urea+60 kg N ha-1 as PM), T4 (60 kg N ha-1 as FYM+60 kg N ha-1 as PM), T5..
