An experiment was conducted during Kharif 2012 and 2013 at Krishi Vigyana Kendra, Janwada, Bidar, University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur, Karnataka, India. To assess the growth, yield and economics of soybean as influenced by the application of plant residues under rainfed situation of Northern Karnataka. Results revealed that, application of RDF (40:80:25 NPK kg/ha + 12 kg ZnSO4/ha + 20 kg sulphur/ha) + plant residues at 3.0 tonnes/ha recorded significantly (p=0.05) higher haulm and seed yield (3007 and 2269 kg/ha, respectively) and which was on par with the application of RDF + plant residues at 2.25 tonnes/ha (2839 and 2136 kg/ha, respectively). Further, Application of RDF + plant residues at 0.75, 1.5 and 2.25 tonnes/ha were at par with each other with respect to haulm and seed yield. Whereas, significantly least haulm and seed yield were recorded in control treatment.
