EFFECT OF ORGANIC MANURES, FERTILIZERS AND BIO-FERTILIZERS ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF SOYBEAN (Glycine max)

Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 51

Abstract

Field experiment was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Anand Agricultural University, Dahod during kharif 2011 and 2012 to study the “Effect of organic manures, fertilizers and bio-fertilizers on growth and yield of soybean (Glycine max)”. The experimental field had an even topography with a gentle slope having good drainage and sandy loam in texture. Sixteen treatment combinations in kharif soybean comprised of four treatments of organic manures and four treatments of fertilizers/bio-fertilizers were tested in a Factorial Randomize Block Design (FRBD) with four replications. The various growth and yield attributing characters of soybean were significantly higher under the treatment of FYM @ 10.0 t ha-1 and the lowest under control (RD) i.e. no organic manure treatment. No significant response of organic manure, fertilizers and bio-fertilizers treatments was observed on plant population at 20 DAS and at harvest during both the years of study and also in pooled results. The highest seed yield (2283, 2338 and 2311 kg ha-1 during the years 2011, 2012 and pooled data, respectively) and highest stover yield (3479, 3866 and 3673 kg ha-1 during 2011, 2012 and in pooled, respectively) of soybean was recorded with treatment M3 (10.0 t FYM) over rest of the treatments. Similarly, the highest seed yield (2224 kg ha-1) and stover yield (3637 kg ha-1) were recorded under the treatment B3 (20 kg S ha-1 + 10 kg Zn ha-1 + Bio- fertilizer) than other treatments.
