Discussion

Field experiments reveal improved maize grain yield with nitrogen-fixing agents and mineral fertilisers, suggesting viable fertilisation strategies.

The study highlights that using nitrogen-fixing agents can significantly enhance maize growth and yield.
Field experiments showed that maize yield increased by 14.5%-22.5% with mineral fertilisers compared to the control.
Combining nitrogen-fixing agents with mineral fertilisers yielded 12.2%-21.2% more grain than using mineral fertilisers alone.
The highest observed yield of 13.38 t/ha was achieved with a specific combination of fertilisers and nitrogen-fixing agents.

Dovhelia et al. (2025) studied this question.
