A study was conducted during 1993-99 to assess the yield response to farmyard manure application and its fate on build up/depletion in soil and uptake of Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]-wheat (Triticum aestivum L. emend. Fiori and Paol.) rotation in a long-term field experiments. Yield response curve showed sharp increase in response to farmyard manure application in soybean and succeeding wheat crop. Change in micronutrient showed that zinc levels were below the critical level in NPK treatment (<0.6 ppm) which is alarming in intensive agriculture. Iron content increased in NPK treatment clue to increase in soil acidity. Farmyard manure decreased the Fe and Mn content but increased the Zn content and maintained the Culevel in the soil. Micronutrients content in soybean and wheat were found to be present above the critical limits in all the treatments except Zn in NPK treatment and contents were significantly higher in treatments receiving farmyard manure afier 26 years of cropping.
