Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at Experiment farm of Agronomy Department, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during kharif 2019 to studies on land configuration and crop residue management on soybean (glycine max (L.) Merrill. The experimental plot was laid out in split plot design of fifteen treatment combinations replicated thrice. Where in main plot consist of three land configuration practices viz., (L₁) Flat bed, (L₂) Broad bed furrow, (L₃) Ridges & furrow and sub plot five treatment of crop residue management practices of (CR₁) Crop Residue @1.25 T/ha + 5 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism, (CR₂) Crop Residue @1.25 T/ha + 10 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism, (CR₃) Crop Residue @2.5 T/ha + 5 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism. (CR₄) Crop Residue @2.5 T/ha + 10 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism and (CR₅) without crop residue. Broad bed furrow with Crop Residue @ 2.5 T/ha + 10 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism was found significantly superior over the rest of treatments in respect of plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, leaf area, number of pod plant^-1 and dry matter. Broad bed furrow with Crop Residue @2.5 T/ha + 10 kg ha^-1 decomposing microorganism was found significantly superior over the rest of treatments in respect of yield attributes and seed yield and straw yield.
