Effect of Different Organic and Inorganic Inputs on Growth and Yield of Soybean (Glycine max) in Southeastern Nigeria

This study was carried out at the teaching and Research farm, Department of Horticulture Landscape Technology, Akanu Ibiam Federal Polytechnic, Unwana, to investigate integrated effects organics (lime, Inoculum) mineral fertilizers, (single superphosphate muriate potash) on growth, nodulation yield soybean. The input omission trial composed 16 treatment combinations phosphorus (75 kg/ha), potassium (88 lime (1500 inoculum (400g/100kg seed). Each set treatments were randomized replicated 3 times. soybean variety “TGX1951-3F” planted in 0.5 m by 1 plots with a seed spacing 5 cm. Data number nodules nodule viability 45 days after planting, plant height 90 weight 100 seeds per plot harvest collected analyzed using Analysis Variance (ANOVA) R package “car” test main effects, 2-way, 3-way, 4-way interactions trial. Results showed highly significant no generally had most appreciable improvement height, viability, yield. Inoculated highest percent (5 69% respectively). . 2.12ton/ha generated shows potential for future higher especially when climatic good agronomic strategies are employed.
