The experiments were laid in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD with three replications. Biochar at the rates of 0, 4, 8 and 12 tons/ha was incorporated into the ridges before planting the soybean seeds. Micronutrient at the rate of 0.0, 0.5 and 1 litre/ha was foliar applied two weeks after planting. All data collected were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) using GENSTAT Statistical Package while least significant different (LSD) was used to separate treatment means at 5 % level of probability. The results revealed that biochar at the rate of 8 tons/ha, when combined with micronutrient at the rate of 0.5 litre/ha, recorded significantly (P<0.05) tallest soybean plant,the highest number of branches and nodules number per plant, heaviest weight of fresh nodules per soybean plant and grain yields (kg/ha) against other treatment combinations. The results also showed that the integration of the highest dose of biochar (12 tons/ha) with the highest dose of micronutrient (1 litre/ha) did not necessarily influence and increased soybean growth and yield parameters tested in this study. Therefore, integration of biochar at the rate of 8 tons/ha with micronutrients at the rate of 0.5 litre/ha is recommended for sustainable soybean production in the study area.enBiochar, integrated, growth, soybean, yieldGROWTH AND YIELD OF SOYBEAN (Glycine Max.
