    Comparative performance of soybean varieties
    (Kerala Agricultural University, 1985) Pushpakumari, R; Mercy George; Vikraman Nair, R
    Experiments were conducted at the College of Horticulture, Vellanikkara during the south west monsoon seasons of 1980 and 1934 10 select soybean varieties suitable for the agro-climatic conditions of Kerala. These were laid out in randomised block design with 13 varieties during 1980 and 14 during 1984. The results of the study indicated that the varieties Bragg and EC 26691 may be adjudged as the most promising based on yield performance and consistency in yield over seasons. A further superiority of the variety, Bragg is to be recognised if protein content of seeds also is taken as a criterion.

    Effect of lime in combination with gypsum on soil acidity parameters and uptake of nutrients in soybean
    (Kerala Agricultural University, 1994) Tessy Jacob, K; Venugopal, V K
    Liming results in significant increase in plant heigh t, nodule number, dry weight of pod, grain yield, haulm yield, total dry weight and NPK uptake. Soil pH, effective CEC, total Ca, exchangeable Ca and available N were increased significantly due to liming. Significant reduction in Al saturation, exchangeable Al and available P and K occurred due to liming.
