IMPACT OF DIFFERENT NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES BASED ON TARGETED YIELD AND QUALITY OF SOYBEAN IN VERTISOL
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 9
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif season at research farm of the Soil Science Department, JNKVV, and Jabalpur. In order to study the impact of different nutrient management practices based on targeted yield and quality of soybean in Vertisol was laid out in randomized block design with five treatments consisted of T1= control, T2= GRD (20.60.20), T3= Targeted Yield (25 qha-1), T4= Targeted Yield (30 qha-1) and T5= Targeted Yield (35 qha-1). The results indicated that different doses of fertilizers based on targeted yield affected the yield of soybean significantly over control and general recommended doses (GRD) of fertilizer for various set targeted yield. The highest yield of seed and Stover were recorded in treatment T5 having 31.35 and 61.48 q ha-1 respectively. Also, the highest nutrient content of NPK were 2.78, 0.17 and 0.78 percent at 30 DAS respectively. The analyzed quality of soybean such as oil and protein content was highest in T4 i.e. 19.45 and 42.93 per cent, respectively. It was reckoned that for set of target yield based on soil test value, use of NPK fertilizers can be best practice for nutrient buildup and assimilation of higher seed protein and oil content. The targeted yield was increased by 32.25 percent over control.
