“…is might be due to the availability of higher phosphorus obtained from the combined sources. is result is in agreement with the finding of Kassa et al [34] who found that the combined application of fresh cattle manure with biofertilizers, inorganic fertilizers, and lime increased the amount of available phosphorus in soil, as it helps in sustaining higher population of several bacteria and fungi, which are capable of solubilizing soil phosphorus. Kumar and Shivay [33] also revealed that the integrated use of biofertilizers, organic fertilizers, inorganic fertilizers, and lime significantly improved the available N, P, and K contents compared with sole application of inorganic fertilizers.…”

The productivity of soybean in Assosa Zone particularly in Assosa and Bambassi districts is very low due to poor soil fertility management practices that resulted in severe soil acidity and low N-fixing inoculants in the soil. Hence, this experiment was conducted during the main cropping season of 2019 and 2020 in Assosa and Bambassi districts to evaluate the effect of biofertilizers, organic fertilizers, inorganic NPSB fertilizers, and lime on nodulation, growth, and yield of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill). Factorial combinations of two biofertilizer inoculants (without biofertilizer (B1) and SB12 plus MAR1495 biofertilizers at their recommended rates of 500 g·ha−1 (B2); two organic fertilizers: without fresh cattle manure (M1) and fresh cattle manure at 10 t·ha−1 (M2); two lime rates: without lime (L1) and lime at 5 t·ha−1 (L2); two inorganic NPSB fertilizers: NPSB at 9.5-23-3.5-0.05 (F1) and NPSB at 19-46-7-0.1 (F2) at their recommended rates for soybean) were laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Effective nodules, leaf area index, and grain yield were collected and analyzed using SAS 9.1.3 software. Results of the experiment showed that effective nodules, leaf area index, grain yield, bulk density, pH, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, organic carbon, and cation exchange capacity were highly ( P < 0.01 ) affected by the interaction of bio-, organic, and inorganic fertilizers and lime at both locations and years. Across all treatments, the grain yield of soybean was increased in the second year, while it was lowest in the first year at both locations. Finally, the interaction of SB12 + MAR1495, 10 t·ha−1 fresh cattle manure, without lime, and NPSB at 19-46-7-0.1 increased the grain yield of soybean in both Assosa and Bambassi districts and should be adopted appropriately to enhance the productivity of soybean in the areas and similar agroecologies, while the interaction effect of SB12 + MAR1495, 10 t ha−1 FCM, 5 t·ha−1 lime, and NPSB at 19-46-7-0.1 improved soil physicochemical properties in both the districts and similar agroecologies.

“…This can be explained by the fact that lime application can promote the survival of Rhizobium through neutralizing the toxicity effects of H + , Al 3+ and Mn 2+ in the soil resulting suitable environment for activity of N fixing bacteria. This result is similar with the finding of Bekere W et al who reported the N 2 -fixation of soybean were increased significantly with the addition of lime and Rhizobium inoculation [23].…”

“…The influence of inoculation and liming on yield may thus be due to their effects on these parameters. This result is in conformity with many of the earlier authors such as; Beyene S et al, Dejene T et al, and Kassa M et al working with Rhizobium inoculation and liming on chickpea, lentil and common bean [18,21,23]. Each of these studies clearly reported that Rhizobium inoculation and lime application neutralizes soil acidity, reduces toxicity levels of Al, Fe and Mn and improves productivity by improving the physiological, chemical and biological properties of soil.…”

Haricot bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) is one of the most economically important legume crops cultivated in Ethiopia. However, its productivity has never reached its full potential of production that it has in supporting income of resource poor farmers in the nation. This is partly due to infertility caused by acidic soils which have low nutrient contents including calcium. The present study was conducted to evaluate response of haricot bean to liming and Rhizobium inoculation in the vicinity of Mizan-Teferi, Bench-Maji Zone in Southwestern Ethiopia. The experiment comprised a factorial combination of four lime levels: 0, 1025, 2050 and 3075 kg ha-1; and Rhizobium leguminosarum biover phaseoli inoculation -with and without inoculation. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Data on nodulation yield and yield component parameters were collected and analyzed. The result revealed that the interaction effect of lime and Rhizobium inoculation had a significant influence on the majorities of parameters tested except pod number per plant and thousand seed weight. Higher values of nodule number per plant, nodule weight per plant, pod length, number of seed per pod and yield of haricot bean were obtained at Rhizobium inoculated treatments receiving lime rate of 2050 and 3075 kg ha-1. However, further increases in rate of lime beyond 2050 kg ha-1 even got worsen with respect to seed yield. Therefore, lime at a rate of 2050 kg ha-1 in combination with Rhizobium inoculation might be tentatively recommended to be used as a bio-fertilizer in the studied area. Further research must be needed to confirm the result presented from this finding.

“…The variation in biological yield of the crop between control treatment and P applied treatments could be due to the constructive effects of P in leaf area index, which may affect photosynthesis and photo-assimilate synthesis. The increases in biomass are the increase in P supply has been reported for mung bean [56], and for haricot bean [46,57]. Biological yield was significantly and positively associated with Plant height (r = 0.70***), no of branches/plant (r = 0.59**) and no of pods per plant (r = 0.67***).…”

Mung bean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) is one of the most important short-season grain legumes and has good content of protein. However, due to the recent introduction of mung bean crop, appropriate recommendations of fertilizer and optimum crop water requirement are lacking for the farmers in Ethiopia. This study investigates the effects of water deficit and levels of phosphorus on growth, yield, yield components, water use efficiency, and economic feasibility of mung bean crop production. The twelve treatments- three irrigation levels (50%, 75% and 100% of crop water requirements (ETc)) and four rates of phosphorus (0, 23, 46 and 69kg P2O5 ha-1) were laid out in a split-plot design and irrigation was assigned to main plots and phosphorus to subplots and replicated thrice. The highest grain yield (1.124t ha-1) was obtained from the application of irrigation water at 100% ETc which was statistically at par with that from 75% ETc irrigation level. The highest grain yield (1.072t ha-1) was produced by application of 46kg P2O5 ha-1. The partial budget analysis showed that both 75% and 100% ETc, and 46kg P2O5 ha-1 gave marginal rate of returns above the minimum acceptable values. Therefore, it can be concluded that, for the intention of sustainable water resource use and increase water use efficiency application of 75% ETc irrigation and 46kg P2O5 ha-1 phosphorus may possibly be recommended for better mung bean production at the study area and areas with similar agroecology.
