An experiment was conducted during the rainy season (kharit) of 1993 and 1994 to study the effect of irrigation regimes and nitrogen on yield and quality of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. The treatments comprised 5 irrigation regimes [irrigation at 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 irrigation water: cumulative pan evaporation (IW : CPE) ratio and crop growth stages along with control] in 1993 and 4 irrigation regimes (irrigation at 0.6, 0.8 IW : CPE and crop growth stages along with control) in 1994 and 4 nitrogen levels (20, 40, 60 and 80 kg N/ha). The seed, stover, oil and protein yields of soybean were significantly higher under 0.8 IW : CPE ratio. The maximum oil and protein contents in soybean seeds were recorded when the crop was irrigated at 0.8 IW : CPE ratio, while minimum in the control (rainfed). The N and P uptake in seed and stover and the total uptake were maximum under 0.8 IW : CPE ratio. However, the chlorophyll content of leaves was gradually decreased with increase in irrigation regimes. Application of nitrogen up to 60 kg/ha increased seed, stover, oil and protein yields of soybean. However, the oil content of seeds was maximum when the crop was fertilized with 20 kg N/ha, and it decreased at 60 kg N/ha. Conversely the protein content of the seeds was increased with increasing levels of N up to 60 kg N/ha. The N and P uptake both by seed and stover and total uptake significantly increased with the increase in N up to 60 kg/ha. The chlorophyll content of leaves was found maximum at 80 kg N/ha when estimated at 60 days after sowing.
