Soybean is the one of agricultural commodities that was very needed in Indonesia, neither as a human food, animal feed nor a basic material of industry. In the development of soybean plants, there were some issues that related to the agro-ecosystem during the planting and it must be overcome, the one of them was the problem of the weeds management that have not optimum yet. The purpose of this research is to examined the effectiveness of a combination of some organic mulchs towarded the weeds suppressing ability on the growth and yield of soybean. In this experiment, it was conducted the effectiveness of acasia organic mulch to suppress the growth of weeds, and also the testing of community coefficient, vegetation analysis (initial SDR value, middle and final), the weeds heavy with broad and narrow leaf types, and kinds of other teki-tekian. Plant’s growth (height, dry weight of shoots and roots). The yield components (amount of pods, amount of meaty pods, weight of 100 seeds and the yield of soybean). The experiment was conducted in a Group Randomized Plan. From the results of this study, found that the Acacia mulch is the organic mulch that effective to suppress the growth of weeds, especially in doses of 20 tons per-ha-1 of mulch Acacia.

Until now, soybean is still one of the priority food commodities in Indonesia. in the agricultural revitalization program launched by the government in 2005, due to the high price volatility that did not rule out the possibility of shaking the Indonesian economy. Soybean plants can provide positive and negative responses to environmental changes growing above and in the soil.  This response can be known from phenotypic and physiological changes in plants. The environment on land which influences the growth of soybean plants mainly is the duration and intensity of irradiation, air temperature, CO2 content in the atmosphere. The study aims to determine the impact of street lighting on the growth and yield of soybean plants.  The study used a Randomized Block Design Method with 3 treatments,  and each treatment was repeated 9 times, so that it takes 27 treatment plots. J0= Distance of street lighting to soybean land (meters), J1: 50 meters, J2: 60 meters, and J3: 70 meters.  Observations were made one week after planting at 7-day intervals for growth parameters (plant height and number of leaves), while for the production parameters (Number of Content Pods/Plants, Dry Weight (DW) 100 Seeds, DW Seeds/Plots, and DW Seeds/Ha) are carried out after harvest. From the results of the study it can be concluded that there are real differences in the parameters of growth and production (number of filled pods, DW 100 seeds, DW seeds/plot, and DW seeds/ha), where the J3 treatment is capable of producing 2.89 tons/ha (an increase in dry weight of seeds/ha by 28.4%), compared to J1 2.24 tonnes/ha , although not significantly different from Treatment  J2

A field experiment was conducted at the farmer’s field at Ratanpur village of Marshaghai block of Kendrapara district of Odisha to assess the effect of different mulching practices on weed population, moisture content in soil, growth and yield of tomato. The experimental field in an adopted village of Krishi Vigyan Kendra Kendrapara where National Innovations on Climate Resilient Agriculture (NICRA) Project activities are being undertaken. The experiment consists of five mulching treatments like black polythene mulch, black and silver polythene mulch, transparent mulch organic mulch and without mulch as control. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five replications. Results revealed that higher moisture content in soil (14.2 %) at 7 days after planting when black with silver colour polythene mulch was used for tomato cultivation. Black with silver colour polythene mulch showed low weed density and dry weight (0.7/ m2 and 0.4 g/ m2) at 20 and 40 days after planting as compared to other treatments. The same treatment gave significantly higher yield per plant (2.27 kg) and yield (56.5 t/ha). Organic mulch was also found a better treatment with respect to yield per plant (1.84 kg) and yield (48.4 t/ha). Higher return obtained by the farmers when black with silver colour polythene mulch was used for tomato cultivation. Black polythene mulching and organic mulching practices was also found good in soil moisture content, weed population in field and yield of tomato.

Field experiments were conducted to study the effects of varying velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrastiMedic.) densities and planting dates on the growth and yield of soybeans [Glycine max(L.) Merr. ‘Amsoy 71’]. Velvetleaf densities ranging from 2.5 to 40 plants/m2caused reductions in the dry weight of soybean leaves, stems, roots, and pods and seeds, and in the leaf area index, pod number, and seed yield when velvetleaf and soybean plants emerged at the same time. The magnitude of reduction in soybean growth and the time at which the reduction was first observed was dependent on weed density. Soybean growth reductions caused by high velvetleaf densities were less when conditions of high soil moisture content minimized the effects of competition for water. Velvetleaf emerging 21 and 23 days after soybean emergence did not reduce crop growth or yield.

       Soybeans will usually grow well at an altitude of no more than 500 to 600 m above sea level. Thedry climate is preferred by soybean plants compared to the humid climate. Straw is a vegetative part ofrice plants (stems, leaves, pan stalks) that are not collected when the rice plants are harvested. -One ofthe bokashi rice straw organic fertilizers. Bokashi rice straw contains some essential organic elementsneeded by plants. Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR), is one of the biological agents that hasbeen widely used and tested to control various plant pathogens, utilizing bamboo roots as decomposersbecause in the bamboo roots there are bacteria Pseudomonas flourescent and Bacillus polymixa whichcan help the fermentation process. The aim of the study (i) was to find out the effect of giving and (ii) toget the best bokashi rice straw dose on the growth and yield of soybean plants.

Abstract Soils of the savannah zones of Nigeria are low in plant nutrients and peasant farmers; therefore, rely on external inputs in the form of organic and inorganic manure for sustainable yield. They also sow their seeds at suboptimal plant population density, thereby providing opportunity for weeds to thrive. Moreover, farmers use saved seeds from the previous cropping season for planting, which often results in low yield. A study was conducted to assess the growth and yield of two maize cultivars under the influence of organic fertilizer and plant population density. Treatments used were factorial combinations of three levels of poultry manure (0, 2.5, 5.0 t/ha), two population densities (95,556 and 53,333 plants/ha) and two maize varieties (DMR-ESR-Y and Suwan-1-SR). Data were collected on number of leaves, plant height, leaf area, stem girth, root and shoot dry weight, total dry weight, days to tasseling, days to silk appearance, grain yield per hectare, number of seeds per cob, seed rows per cob, weight of 100 seeds and shelling percentage. The results revealed significant improvement (p≤ 0.05) in all parameters examined, when 5 t/ha poultry manure was applied to Suwan-1-SR at density 53,333 plants/ha. However, there was marginal difference between 5 and 2.5 t/ha in grain production. Therefore, application of 2.5 t/ha poultry manure for production of Suwan-1-SR maize variety at plant density 53,333 plants/ha could be used for getting optimum yield, that can feed the growing population of maize consumers coupled with better straw production for animal feed.

       Peanuts is one type of secondary crop which ranks third after corn and soybeans. Peanuts have long been used as food, while by-products can be used as animal feed. In connection with the problem of lack of fertility in lebak wetland soil, in order to produce high production with good quality, efforts need to be made to add nutrients. Rice washing water has a high carbohydrate content. Carbohydrates can be an intermediary for the formation of the hormones auxin and giberelin. Two types of ingredients that are widely used in artificial growth stimulants. This study aims (i) to determine the growth response and yield of peanut plants to the provision of brown rice washing water on lebak wetland, (ii) to find out the best time interval for brown rice washing water for plant growth and yield peanuts on lebak wetland. This research was conducted in Banyu Tajun Pangkalan Village, Sungai Pandan Sub-District, Hulu Sungai Utara Regency from April to June 2013, using randomized complete design (CRD) with single factor. The factors studied were the brown rice washing water interval. The results showed that the treatment did not affect the observation of plant height and number of branches, and had a very significant effect on the variables observed in the number of crop pods, wet weight of crop pods, and dry weight of plant pods. The results of this study indicate that the best treatment is at p5 (6 days).

The soybean (Glycine max L.) plant is economically important for the food and animal feed industries due to its nutritional qualities. Soybean crops are highly productive and responsive to new technologies. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of Penergetic-P and Penergetic-K on the dry weight of shoot (DWS), dry weight of root (DWR), total dry weight (DWT), dry weight of nodules (DWN), number of nodules per plant (NNP), level of N in the shoot (NS), chlorophyll index, plant height and soybean yield. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with three replications. The means were compared by ANOVA and Duncan test (p ≤ 0.05). Differences among treatments for NNP were not significantly evident, but observed for DWN. The application of Penergetic-K in soil increased significantly the DWN in comparison with the application of only NPK and micronutrients. The DWR, DWS, DWT and the DWS/DWR ratio didn’t differ significantly among the treatments as well as the chlorophyll index and NS. The grain yield was significantly lower with the addition of NPK + micronutrients and significantly higher with the addition of Penergetic-K. The Penergetic-K promoted an increased soybean yield, up to 20% compared to the treatment with only NPK + micronutrients. It was concluded that the use of Penergetic benefits the soybean production and the soil quality.
