 ABSTRACT

A Field experiment was carried out to study the “Response of soybean (Glycine max L.) to sulphur levels with inorganic and organic sources of nitrogen”. the study revealed that the growth parameters like plant height, dry matter accumulation, leaf area and seed yield were significantly increased with the treatment 75% RDN through urea, 25% nitrogen through FYM and 40 kg S ha-1 which was on par with T4 is RDN 100% through urea with 40 kg S ha-1 and T3 is RDN 100% through urea with 30 kg S ha-1 but was significantly higher over rest of the treatments. The tratment T1 is RDN 100% recorded the lowest values of all treatments regarding to growth parameters and yield.

Key words: Sulphur, Nitrogen, Yield, Soybean.
