The results of field experiment conducted at Agronomy Farm, B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand revealed that sulphur showed the significant effect on quality and yield of soybean in Iceptisol, irrespective of sources, oil and protein content in soybean grain was significantly higher at application of 40 kg S ha-1 in form of gypsum. The grain and straw yield also significantly increased due to same dose of sulphur, where oil and protein content were recorded 22.7 and 35.9 per cent, respectively.

Abstract


The results of field experiment conducted at Agronomy Farm, B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand revealed that sulphur showed the significant effect on quality and yield of soybean in Iceptisol, irrespective of sources, oil and protein content in soybean grain was significantly higher at application of 40 kg S ha-1 in form of gypsum. The grain and straw yield also significantly increased due to same dose of sulphur, where oil and protein content were recorded 22.7 and 35.9 per cent, respectively.
