Abstract: A field experiment entitled “Effect of bioagent and seed coating on yield and seed quality parameters in soybean (Glycine max L.) Mirril.) was conducted during kharif 2019 at experimental field of Department of Agriculture Botany, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Agriculture University, Parbhani. Seed of soybean var. MAUS 162 were coated with polymer in combination with different bioagents and maintained untreated seed (control). After seed treatment, the seed were sown in the field with three replication and seven treatment adopting randomized block design in order to find out the effect of seed treatments on various seed quality parameters. Oil content, protein content, Germination percentage, seedling length, and vigour index were significantly superior in treatment T_7: T₂+ Biomix@6ml followed by T₄ T₂+ Rhizobium japonicum @6ml than all other seed coating treatments over the control in the soybean var MAUS -162.
