ABSTRACT
A field experiment was carried out on “Response of liquid biofertilizers (Bradyrhizobium and PSB) on availability of nutrients and soil chemical properties of soybean (Glycine max)”. It was conducted in Kharif season during the year 2013-14 at the research farm of Oil Seed Research Station, Latur, Maharashtra, in factorial randomized block design with three replications and variety MAUS-81 as a test crop. Availability of nitrogen in soil was increased by seed inoculation with liquid 10ml of Bradyrhizobium (A2). Phosphorus availability in soil was improved by seed inoculation with liquid 10ml of PSB (B2). However in later stages N uptake in soybean was increased significantly due to seed inoculation with 10ml of PSB (B2). Organic carbon content in experimental soil was improved due to residual effect of soybean crop grown under liquid biofertilizers treatment.
Key words: Liquid Bio-fertilizers, Bradyrhizobium, PSB, Soybean, Nutrients availability
