Foliar nutrition, Soybean, yieldAbstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif 2017 to find out the response of soybean yield to application of foliar nutrition under rainfed condition of Manipur. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with nine treatments which were replicated thrice. Treatments consist of application of foliar nutrient with recommended dose of fertilizer. Results showed that application of foliar nutrients significantly influenced the yield of soybean. Application of RDF + MOP 0.5% at pod initiation produced maximum seed yield of 2096 kg/ha followed by application of RDF + Urea 2% spray at pod initiation (1988 kg/ha) and RDF + 19:19:19 (NPK) 2% at pod initiation (1964 kg/ha).
