The development of bio fertilizer for the legume crop is the crucial activity in the enhancement of sustainable agriculture to fulfill the human welfare. This research was focused on such aims through justifying the objective of evaluate the rhizobia isolate naturally associated with soybean obtained from acidic environment during the cropping season of 2019 and 2020. The activities were carried out with the nine treatments (SB AS ARC -010, SB AS ARC-008, SB AS ARC-022, SB Tgp-1, SB Tgp-3, SB SYB-1, TSP+Urea.50kg/ha, TSP and –Ve control) which were arranged in RCBD with three replication. Accordingly, the highest nodule numbers (189.1) were from isolates SB SYB-1 and the highest grain yield (2636.1kg/ha) and biomass weight (6794.7kg/ha) from isolate SB AS ARC-022 in the year 2019. In 2020, the highest nodule number (109.1) was obtained from isolate SB AS ARC-008 and the highest nodule dry weights (3.4) gram weight per plant. Additionally, in the year 2020, there were significant differences among the treatments on above ground biomass of the soybean yield and among different isolates the highest biomass yield (5284 kg/ha) was obtained when the soybean seed is inoculated with SB Tgp-3 rhizobia isolates which have significance difference with the negative control. Similarly, the highest grain yield were obtained when the soybean seed were inoculated with isolate SB Tgp-3 which was almost similar results with seeds inoculated with isolate SB AS ARC-008 and SB AS ARC -010. Overall, SB AS ARC-022 and SB Tgp-3 isolates were given the highest grain yield and can be used for soybean production in acid prone area alternatively.
