Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during the Kharif season of 2024 at Lovely Professional University, Punjab, to evaluate the effect of land configuration and nutrient management on the growth, yield and quality of soybean (Glycine max L.). The experiment followed a factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with two land configurations: flatbed (L1) and ridge and furrow (L2). Eight nutrient management treatments (N1 to N8) including various combinations of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and farmyard manure (FYM). Soybean variety SL958 was used and data were collected on growth parameters, yield components and seed protein content. Ridge and furrow configuration significantly improved plant growth and seed yield compared to the flatbed system. The best performance for growth, yield attributes and protein content (40.00 %) were observed under 75 % N + 25 % FYM + 75 % P (N8), followed by 75 % N + 100 % P (N4), while the control showed the lowest performance across all parameters. Significant interaction effects confirmed that combining ridge and furrow with balanced nutrient application optimally enhances soybean growth, yield and quality. The study highlights the potential of ridge and furrow land configuration combined with integrated nutrient management to maximize soybean yield and quality in sandy clay loam soils under subtropical conditions.
