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.
