Effect of organic nutrient sources on productivity of soybean[Glycine max (L.) Merril]

Abstract

The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design (RBD) with six treatments and replicated thrice Growth and yield significantly increased by the application of different nutrient sources. Application of Poultry manure @ 6 t ha-1 + Rhizobium @ 20g kg-1 seed + Phosphatica @ 20g kg-1 seed (T6) enhanced both the growth and yield of crop. Maximum number of pods plant-1 (67.73), seeds pod-1 (2.83), grain yield (1513 kg ha-1) and Harvest index(45.62 %) were observed with Poultry manure @ 6 t ha-1 + Rhizobium @ 20g kg-1 seed + Phosphatica @ 20g kg-1 seed (T6).

​Impact of Paddy and Coffee Husk as the Bio Compost and its Effect on the Growth and Yield of Black Gram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper]

“…Number of nodules showed an increase in 40 DAS was found to be decreasing in its number at 60 DAS and treatment 6 (10.0, 30.0 and 17.0) showed a remarkable increase among all the other treatments and the control (4.0, 11.0 and 9.0). Similar results were found in the observations of Sentirenla Changkija and Gohain, (2018) the maximum number of nodules (14.33) were found in soybean with the application of poultry manure 6 t ha + Rhizobium @ 20 g Kg -1 seed+Phosphatica @20 g Kg -1 (T 6 ).…”

“…The maximum number of seeds in treatment 6and treatment 3 was found to have the similar results (5) and the control (3) showed the lowest results, similar results were found in soybean with the application of poultry manure 6 t ha +Rhizobium @ 20 g Kg -1 seed Phosphatica @20 g Kg -1 (T6) in the maximum number of seeds/pod (2.83) (Changkija and Gohain, (2018). The maximum increase is found in the weight of the seeds/pod in treatment 6 (2.384 g) followed by treatment 3 (2.012 g) when it is compared to other treatments and the control (1.012 g), as well as pod fresh weight and dry weight also showed the highest increase in treatment 6 (2.95 and 1.195 g) followed by treatment 3 (2.87 and 1.102 g) the lowest was found in control (1.22 and 0.670 g).…”

Effect of neem fertilizer rates and weed control methods on the growth and yield of soybeans (Glycine max (L.) merrill) in north Central Nigeria

“…31-47 capability of legumes overcomes the soil infertility hurdles where soil nutrients are not severely depleted. Changkija and Gohain (2018) also stated that Soybean has a very good adaptability towards a wide range of soils and climate. Grain yield and 100 seed weight of soybean strived better under weed free, even though, application of pendimethalin was at par in the course of weed suppression and crop yield.…”

“…World production of soybeans is predicted to increase by 2.2% annually to 371.3 million tons by 2030 using an exponential smoothing model with a damped trend (Masuda and Goldsmith, 2009). Soybean is cultivated in an estimated global area of 108.75 million hectares with a production reaching 268 million tonnes now the world's leading oil seed crop (Changkija and Gohain, 2018) Soybean cultivation in Nigeria has expanded as a result of its nutritive and economic importance and diverse domestic usage (Dugje et al, 2009). Soybean contributes approximately 40% protein and 20% fat to the body which made the crop economically important for human and animal consumption.…”

The Effect of Paddy and Coffee Husk as the Organic Manure on the Vegetative and Yield Parameters of Moth Bean [Vigna aconitifolia (Jacq) Marechal]

“…The results of this particular study also is similar to that of Hasan et al,(2021) with the application of N and P fertilizer on Groundnut plants and found that the plant height (20.65) increased along with the number of pods 74.28% in treatment 15. Changkija and Gohain, (2018) obtained the significant results in increasing the grain weight (12.07 g) of soy bean with the application of poultry manure in treatment 6. Similar to these results Zebire and Gelgelo, (2019) reported that there was increase in the yield (74.2 g) of haricot bean with application of P fertilizer.…”
