Abstract
Field experiment were conducted in kharif season 2020 and 2021 on
Vertisol (Typic Haplustert) at Experimental Farm, Department of Soil Science
and Agricultural Chemistry, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Agricultural University,
Parbhani to determine the effect of microbial consortia inoculation and
chemical fertilizers on nutrient availability, N, P and K in soil, yield and
quality of soybean crop. The experiment was laid in Factorial Randomized Block
Design with four treatments of microbial consortia inoculants (uninoculated
control (S0), Bradyrhizobium + Bacillus megaterium (S1), Bradyrhizobium +
Pseudomonas striata (S3) and Bradyrhizobium + Thiobacillus thiooxidans (S4) of
microbial consortia inoculation and four levels of chemical fertilizers
(control i.e. without fertilizer (T1), 50% RDF (T2), 75 % RDF (T3) and 100 %
RDF of chemical fertilizer kg ha-1. The results were clearly
indicated that the application of microbial inoculants as well as chemical
fertilizers in their graded doses increased the seed, straw yield of soybean
and soil availability nutrient N, P and K in soil significantly after harvest
of crop. The enhancement in these parameterswere recorded with combined effect
of microbial inoculants treatment (S3) Bradyrhizobium + Pseudomonas striata and
chemical fertilizers 100 % RDF and that of microbial inoculants with
application of chemical fertilizer indicating their significant p.
