Effect of different nutrient management practices for enhancing soybean yield and yield attributes
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Soybean is a vital legume crop valued for its nutritional and economic importance, yet its productivity is threatened by declining soil fertility. Sustainable nutrient management is therefore essential to enhance crop performance and maintain soil health. A field experiment was conducted at JNKVV, Jabalpur during kharif 2024 to evaluate six nutrient management practices in a randomized block design with four replications. Results revealed that 100% organic nutrient management (T1) produced the highest growth including plant height (57.85 cm), branches/plant (5.30), leaf area index (4.91), and nodulation (57.08) followed by T3 (50% organic + 50% inorganic). As regards to yield attributing character i.e. pods/plant, maximum pod count (52.45) was obtained under T1followed by T3 however, the other characters like seeds/pod and seed index were not influenced by different treatment. T1 is also recorded the Maximum seed yield was also recorded under 100% organic nutrient management (T1) which was statistically at par with 100% inorganic fertilizer (T6).
