Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of potash management through gliricidia green leaf manuring on potassium fractions and the relationship of different potassium fractions with yield of soybean in Vertisols at Research field of AICRP for Dryland Agriculture, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra during kharif 2018. The experiment comprised of six treatments and four replications laid out in Randomized Block Design. The treatments comprised of control, 100% RDF (30:75:30 NPK kg ha-1), 75% and 50% N and 100% P through chemical fertilizers and the combinations of 15 and 30 kg K ha-1 through Gliricidia green leaf manure at 30 DAS and remaining recommended dose of potassium as basal dose through inorganic fertilizers. The results indicated that the significant improvement in potassium fractions was recorded with application of 75% N +100% P+15 kg K through chemical fertilizers +15 kg K through Gliricidia and among the various potassium fractions, the water soluble K was highly correlated with soybean grain yield.
