Effect of Integrated Phosphorus Management on Yield, Nutrient Uptake of Soybean Grown on ‘P’ Deficient Soil
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2017 at Post Graduate Research Farm, College of Agriculture Kolhapur with the view to study the effect of integrated phosphorus management for yield, nutrient uptake of soybean grown on “P” deficient soil. The soil of experimental site was slightly alkaline in reaction, low in available nitrogen, low in available phosphorus and very high in available potassium. The field experiment was carried out in randomized block design with three replications and seven treatments viz. absolute control (T1), General recommended dose of fertilizer (T2), 100 % P2O5 through PMC (T3), 100 % P2O5 through DAP (T4), 25 % P2O5 through PMC + 75 % P2O5 through DAP (T5), 50 % P2O5 through PMC + 50 % P2O5 through DAP (T6), 75 % P2O5 through PMC + 25 % P2O5 through DAP (T7). The result indicated that the application of 25 % P2O5 through PMC + 75 % P2O5 through DAP (T5) recorded significantly higher plant height, number of branches per plant, number of grains per plant, number of pods per plant, yield, nutrient uptake and quality of soybean.
