Abstract

Soyabean (Glycine max) is cultivated in temperate condition of Himalayan region particularly in Kumaun and Garhwal Zones, where it is locally known as "Bhat". The main reason for the popularity of this corp is its richest protein content and exceptionally high oil content as compared to other pulse crops. Sufficient information is lacking in regard to its agronomical practices such as proper spacing and manurial requirements in the condition of plains of Uttar Pradesh. In order to find out suitable spacing and requirements of nitrogen and phosphorus for soyabean, the present experiment was conducted at Government Agricultural College, Kanpur during the Kharif, 1966-67.
