Abstract
When chemical fertilizers are combined with biofertilizers in the correct proportion, the efficiency of nutrient uptake by the plant will increase, leading to an increase in quality seed yield. During the late Kharif-II season of 2017 a field experiment was conducted in the farmer's field of Char Wapda, a FSRD site under Subarnachar upazilla in Noakhali district, to determine the effect of some inorganic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers on the growth and quality seed production of soybean for the upcoming Rabi season. Five fertilizer combinations, viz. T1 = Native Control, T2 = Soil Test Based (24-37-40-2.8-1.6-1 kg ha-1 of N-P-K-S-Zn-B), T3 = 100% recommended dose (24-40-45-2.8-1.6-1 kg ha-1 of N-P-K-S-Zn-B) according to FRG, 2012, T4 = 50% recommended dose (12-20-22.5-1.4-0.8-0.5 kg ha-1 of N-P-K-S-Zn-B + 1.2 kg ha-1 of BARI RGm-901 bio-fertilizer), and T5 = Farmers' practice (26-12 kg ha-1 of N-P) The experiment utilized a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three (03) replicates, and the test crop was BARI Soybean-5. The various treatment combinations exhibited statistically significant differences in yield and yield-contributing traits. Application of 50% of the recommended doses and biofertilizer (BARI RGm-901) at a rate of 1.2 kg ha-1 substantially increased the majority of the parameters, including the highest number of lateral branches per plant, number of pods per plant, weight of 100 seeds, and seed yield. T4 produced the greatest seed yield (2.04 t ha-1), while T1 resulted the lowest seed yield (0.93 t ha-1). T4 produced the greatest gross return (TK.2,04,000 ha-1) and gross margin (TK.1,62,477 ha-1) while T1 produced the lowest gross return (TK.93,000 ha-1) and gross margin (TK.55,900 ha-1). In addition, the benefit-cost ratio (BCR) was highest in plot T4, where biofertilizer was applied alongside chemical fertilizer (3.91), and lowest in plot T5 (1.49). Combining the two fertilizers can have a positive synergistic effect, but additional research is required to determine the optimal combination for cultivating high-quality soybean seed in specific soil and environmental conditions.
Key Words: Soybean, Rhizobium, Bio-fertilizer, Seed Yield and Coastal Area.
