This research was conducted to indentify the stage of applying pressed and slow-release organic mineral granular fertilizer to help increase yield of maize grown on sandy soils in Quang Binh. The fertilizer granules that weigh 1.8 g each was applied for corn in spring 2010. The experiment was arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with 3 replications with 6 application timings and frequency. The results showed that 3 applications including basal and two times of top-dressings at 3-4 leaf and 6-7 leaf stage gave the highest yield.
