  • To increase nitrogen fixation in soybean crops, treat with Rhizobium [Jev vatika -R Soya] @ 5 gm/kg of seeds.

  • By treating seeds with fungicides, soybean is protected from wilt, and root rot disease.

  • The seed germinates properly, and the germination percentage increases.

  • The initial development of the soybean crop is uniform.

  • Seed treatment with Rhizobium increases nodules in the roots of soybean crops and fixes more nitrogen.

  • By treating seed with insecticides, the soybean crop is protected from soil insects such as white grubs, ants, termites etc.
