abstract
An experiment entitled “Response of soybean to foliar applications of different liquid formulations on yield attributing characters, yield and economics” was conducted at P.G. Research Farm, Agronomy Section, RCSM College of Agriculture, Kolhapur during the kharif season of 2022 to evaluate effect of foliar application of liquid formulations on yield attributing characters, yield and economics of soybean. The obtained result showed that the foliar spray of panchgavya (5%) at branching and at flowering stage recorded higher yield attributing characters viz., number of pods plant^-1 (67.73), number of seeds pod^-1 (2.67), number of seeds plant^-1 (177.87), seed weight plant^-1 (19.40 g), 100 seed weight (14.43 g), seed yield (31.30 q ha^-1), straw yield (40.30 q ha^-1) and also in economical parameters viz., gross (₹ 152040 ha^-1) & net (₹ 73552 ha^-1) monetary returns and B:C ratio (1.94). However, it was found at par with the foliar application treatments containing two sprays of jeevamruth, vermiwash and cow urine at branching and at flowering stage.
