Background: Soybean is an important legume as well as oil seed crop grown in a varied range of climate and soils. Phosphorous and sulphur is an important macronutrient required for plants. Their deficiency in soil is a worldwide concern for production of food crops. Therefore, present investigation was done to study influence of phosphorus and sulphur fertilization on productivity, profitability and quality of soybean. Methods: An experiment conducted during kharif 2021 and laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications having four levels of phosphorous (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg ha-1) and three levels of sulphur (15, 30 and 45 kg ha-1). The data was recorded, analysed and computed statistically. Result: The results indicated that application of 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 and 45 kg S ha-1 gave significantly higher yield, monetary returns and quality of soybean over rest of phosphorous and sulphur levels. However, it was found at par with 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 and 30 kg S ha-1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
