 ABSTRACT

The field experiment was conducted in field at Regional Research Center, Amravati during kharif season 2018-19. Four soybean varieties MACS 1520, AMS MB 5-18, RSC 10-52, and check NRC 86 were sown on two sowing dates, 21st june (normal sowing) and  10th july (20 days after normal sowing). The experiment was laid out in split plot design replicated three times keeping sowing dates in main plot and varieties in sub plot using net plot size of 5.0 m x 2.7 m.  The observation on dry matter was recorded at 30 DAS, 45 DAS and 60 DAS, CGR and RGR on 30-45 and 45-60 DAS. Yield attributes viz., branches per plant, pods per plant, seed index and seed yield kg/ha and straw yield kg/ha was recorded at the time of harvesting.   Amongst the different date of sowing, genotype AMS MB 5-18 recorded significantly highest seed yield 1904 kg/ha under normal date of sowing. In different genotypes, none of the single genotypes proves significantly superior over others. In respect of late sowing genotype, almost all the genotypes recorded less than half seed yield than normal date of sowing.
