abstract
An experiment entitled “Effect of foliar application of different liquid formulations on growth attributing characters and yield of kharif Soybean” was undertaken at P.G. Research Farm, Agronomy Section, RCSM College of Agriculture, Kolhapur during the kharif season of 2022 to evaluate effect of liquid formulations on growth attributing characters and yield of soybean. The obtained result showed that the application of foliar sprays of panchagavya (5%) at branching and at flowering stage recorded the highest growth attributing characters viz. plant height (56.20 cm), number of branches plant^-1 (9.87), number of functional leaves plant^-1 (36.20), leaf area plant^-1 (36.76 dm²) and dry matter accumulation plant^-1 (33.50 g), and also the seed yield (31.30 q ha^-1) and the straw yield (40.30 q ha^-1). However, it was found at par with the foliar sprays containing two foliar application of jeevamruth, vermiwash and cow urine at branching and at flowering stage of soybean.
