Abstract:
Crop yield data of soybean has been affected significantly due to various fertility treatments. The micronutrient application / FYM application @ 6 t ha^-1 when applied with RDF gave higher seed and stover yield as compared to RDF without micronutrient application. The RDF was statistically at par with the treatments comprising of RDF + micronutrient. Treatment T₁₅ (Control) was found significantly inferior to all the treatments. On the basis of two years pooled data the highest soybean seed and stover yield of 2083.0 and 3033.7kg ha^-1 was recorded with treatment T₅ (20:60:20 kg NPK ha^-1 + S₄₀). Seed yield data revealed that treatments comprising of soil application of Mo gave higher seed yield when applied with RDF than seed treatment. Treatment comprising of application of micronutrient along with RDF gave higher B:C ratio than RDF alone. The lowest B:C ratio was obtained in case of treatment T₁₅ i.e. control. The treatments which comprises recommended dose of fertilizer addition of S/Zn/Mo along with RDF further increases oil content but this increase was non-significant.
