Effect of Rhizobial inoculation on the growth of bambara nut (Voandzeiasubterraneal) and soybean (Glycine max L) on soil of ‘Yankwashi local government area of Jigawa state

Abstract

The effect of Rhizobialinnuculum on the growth of Bambara nut (VoandzeiasubterraneaL) and Soybean (Glycine max L), on the soil of ‘Yankwashi L. G. A. were investigated, the experiment was conducted in 2020 at Department of SLT-CST demonstration plot to study the effect of inoculation on the growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixation of Bambara nut and Soybean, The results showed that, the height and chlorophyll content of Bambara nut (VoandzeiasubterraneaL),of the treated plants established better than their corresponding uninoculated plants Control follow by the respond of height and chlorophyll content of Soybean (Glycine max L) of ‘Yankwashi Local Government. Again, inoculation resulted in significantly greater nodule numbers, height, and chlorophyll content respectively
