Abstract

Soybean growth and yield response to the rate and time of nitrogen foliar spray was studied. Rate of area significantly increased the grain-straw ratio and percent effective nodules during the dry season. Nodule count per plant was observed to be significantly affected by time of urea application. More nodules developed when urea was sprayed at the late blooming stage. A significant interaction between the rate and time of urea was detected on percent darker nodules.

During the wet season, interaction of rate and time of application significantly influenced the percent effective nodule, percent darker nodule and plant height per plant.

Economic yield and other agronomic characters of UPL-Sy-2 were not significantly affected by rate and time of foliar spray of urea.
