Influence of sodium humate on the crop plants inoculated with bacteria of agricultural importance

The dry-matter yield and nitrogen uptake of berseem (Trifolium alexanddrinum), yield, nitrogen uptake, nodulation and leghaemoglobin content of dhaincha (Sesbania aculeata) inoculated with specific rhizobia were appreciably influenced by the application of sodium húmate to soil under green house con...

Description
Summary:The dry-matter yield and nitrogen uptake of berseem (Trifolium alexanddrinum), yield, nitrogen uptake, nodulation and leghaemoglobin content of dhaincha (Sesbania aculeata) inoculated with specific rhizobia were appreciably influenced by the application of sodium húmate to soil under green house conditions. Even the application of sodium húmate alone without bacterial inoculation had good growth stimulating influence on both the crops, and this effect was further improved by the application of inorganic nitrogen to dhaincha plants. A fair increase in the yield and phosphorus uptake of wheat (Triticum vulgare) inoculated with Azotobacter and/or Bacillus spp. was also recorded with the addition of the humic material to the soil. The greatest effect was observed on the plants inoculated with Azotobacter and Bacillus spp. together.
