Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Co-inoculation of soybean with Bradyrhizobium and Pseudomonas significantly increased soybean growth, yield attributes and grain yield over single or no inoculation.
- Intervention effect Green-manuring with sunnhemp followed by tobacco significantly increased tobacco green-leaf and cured-leaf yields and grade index over other treatments.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation of soybean increased tobacco green leaf yield by 10.5% over no inoculation.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation of soybean increased tobacco cured leaf yield by 7.7% over no inoculation.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation of soybean increased tobacco grade index by 13.2% over no inoculation.
- Intervention effect Sunnhemp-tobacco system had higher total N and nicotine in X and L leaf positions than the soybean-tobacco system.
- Intervention effect Sunnhemp-tobacco system had lower reducing sugars and sugar:nicotine ratio in X and L leaf positions than the soybean-tobacco system.
- Intervention effect Application of 130 kg N/ha gave higher total N and nicotine in tobacco leaves than 110 kg N/ha.
- Intervention effect Application of 130 kg N/ha gave lower reducing sugars and sugar:nicotine ratio in tobacco than 110 kg N/ha.
- Intervention effect Soybean (co-inoculation) – tobacco system gave additional net returns of Rs 1,710/ha over the sunnhemp-tobacco system.
- Observation Sunnhemp-tobacco system gave a higher B:C ratio of 1.65.
- Recommendation Application of 130 kg N/ha would be needed for tobacco succeeding soybean.
