Abstract
A field experiment entitled “Effect of methods of sowing and spacing on
yield, quality and chemical studies of soybean (Glycine max L.)” was
conducted at Agronomy Farm, College of Agriculture, Nagpur, during kharif season
of 2021-22 in Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD) with eight treatments
and three replications. Treatment combinations were comprised of two sowing
methods viz., ridges and furrow and broad bed furrow and four treatments
of spacing viz., 45 cm x 5 cm, 45 cm x 10 cm, 45 cm x 15 cm and 45 cm x
20 cm. Results revealed that, seed and straw yield (q ha-1), gross
monetary returns, net monetary returns (Rs. ha-1) were significantly
higher due to sowing on broad bed furrow. As regards spacing, seed and straw
yield (q ha-1), gross monetary returns, net monetary returns (Rs. ha-1)
were significantly maximum at spacing 45 cm x 5 cm. The interaction effect
between methods of sowing and spacing was found non-significant. Protein, oil
content (%) and available N, P, K in soil after harvest did not differed
significantly due to different sowing methods and spacing.
