Abstract:
The experimental trail was performed out at the Experimental Farm belonging to the Agronomy Section, Agriculture College, Latur, during the Kharif season of 2021 in order to assess the losses resulting from production restrictions in soybeans and to analyze the impact of different constraints on the growth and yield attributes of soybeans. The pH of the clay-textured, somewhat alkaline soil in the experimental plot was 7.8, and its chemical composition included available nitrogen (125.30 kg per ha) at low levels and medium levels of available phosphorus (18.20 kg per ha) as well as high levels of available potassium (498.58 kg per ha). Because of its good drainage, it was ideal for growth. Due to its good drainage, the soil was ideal for growth. Eight treatments, each with replicated thrice, were included in the Randomized Block Design trial setup. The adoption of the whole package of procedures (T₁) resulted in improved growth, yield attributes, and seed yield (2148 kg ha^-1) in soybean production, according to the results. When compared to the whole package of activities, weeding was shown to be the most important limitation of the single production element, causing yield losses of up to 33%. Plant protection came in second with 25% and RDF with 20%. RDF + weeding (T₅), RDF + plant protection (T₆), and weeding + plant protection (T₇) were shown to be the two main resource limitations among the two factor production constraints, resulting in yield losses of up to 45%, 35%, and 60%, respectively.
