Maize

Altered date of sowing (early or delay to skip the critical stages)

• Keep crop well irrigated. Sprinkler irrigation increases canopy temperature 

• Apply K, Cu and Mo fertilizers as their deficiency render crop vulnerable to frost. 

• Evaporation suppressors/antitranspirant can also be used

• Application potassium chloride (KCl), gibberellin (GA3) increase cold tolerance in maize
