EFFECT OF MOLYBDENUM AND MICROBIAL INOCULANTS ON YIELD, NUTRIENT CONTENTS, UPTAKE AND QUALITY OF SOYBEAN GROWN IN A VERTISOL
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 10
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of molybdenum and microbial inoculants on yield, nutrient contents, uptake and quality of soybean during the Kharif season of the year 2013 at research farm of JNKVV, Jabalpur. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with four replications and nine treatments viz., T1 (control), T2 (Rhizobium), T3 (PSB), T4 (Rhizobium+PSB), T5 (0.5 kg Ammonium molybdate ha-1), T6 (T5 + Rhizobium), T7 (T5 + PSB), T8 (T6 + PSB) and T9 (1.0 g Ammonium molybdate kg-1 seed as seed treatment). The result revealed that the application of Mo with Rh+PSB gave the highest grain (1.85 t ha-1) and stover yield (3.52 t ha-1) and protein content (39.05%) in seed over control. Significant increase of N and P content in grain and stover and its uptake by soybean as well as protein content registered best with the application of Mo with Rh+PSB. This treatment also brought about substantial improvement in available nutrients (N, P, K and Mo) in soil.
