Abstract:
A field experiment entitled, “Effect of land configuration methods and sulphur levels on growth and yield of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill)” was conducted during kharif, 2019 at Post Graduate Research Farm, Agronomy Section, RCSM College of Agriculture, Kolhapur. The objectives of experiment is to find out the suitable soybean land configuration methods for Western Maharashtra region and optimum sulphur level for soybean with its economics. The plant population at the initial stages and at harvest did not differ significantly due to different sulphur levels under growth study. The growth attributing characters i.e plant height, plant spread, number of branches and leaf area plant^-1 observed during different growth stages viz., 30, 45, 60, 75 DAS and at harvest were maximum with the application of were maximum and influenced significantly with the application of 30 Kg S ha^-1, however but comparable with the application of sulphur @ 20 Kg ha^-1.
