Abstract

The efficiency of biological nitrogen fixation is
conditioned by different factors, mainly by every participant´s
role in soil, plant and microorganism interaction. This work
evaluates the effect of some soil factors as pH, available
phosphorus content, organic matter content, nitrates and
Bradyrhizobium population, as well as two inoculants on
soybean yield in different sites of Argentina. The analysis of
factors proved that, despite everyone influenced on it, only
pH, Bradyrhizobium population existing in the soils tested
and inoculant quality have a significant effect on yield. Plants
growing on acid soils with a low bacteria population, which
had been inoculated with an induced biopreparation, showed
higher yields.
