Abstract:
The experiment was conducted during the period from November, 2016 to April
2017 to Influence of sulphur and boron on the growth, yield and oil content of
BARI Soybean-6 (Glycine max L.). In this experiment, the treatment consisted of
four Levels of sulphur viz. 0 kg S ha

. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with
three replications. The collected data were statistically analyzed for evaluation of
the treatment effect. Results showed that a significant variation among the
treatments in respect majority of the observed parameters. Different levels of
sulphur showed significant variation on all parameters of soybean. The maximum

beneficial to increase the seed yield of soybean variety BARI soybean 6.
