Effect of biofertilizers on yield, nutrient content and quality of soybean (Glycine max) under rainfed condition

摘要

An experiment with biofertihzers viz., Rhizobium and phosphorous solubilizing bacteria (PSB) application on soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) was conducted at research farm. Cotton Research Station, College of Agriculture, MAU, Parbhani (M.S) during rainy season of 2005. The protein and oil content in soybean was varied form 33.3 to 38.9% and 16.7 to 19.5%, respectively. The dual inoculation of Rhizobium +PSB was found beneficial for oil production in soybean with and without chemical fertilizers. The result from the experiment revealed that the soybean under rainfed condition gave highest seed yield in treatment T_1S_3(100% RDF + Rhizobium + PSB) as well as highest N and P contain in seed also recorded in T_1S_3 treatment.
