Soybeans

The maintenance of an adequate soil pH level ensures nutrients availability and maximizes yield.

The maintenance of an adequate soil pH level ensures nutrients availability and maximizes yield.

Soybean is able to get air N2 through the symbiotic relationship with the bacteria of the genus Rizhobium.

The seed production per plant is determined by the amount of nodes as the amount of flowers per node is genetically determined and does not alter much.

Potassium is required for protein synthesis in plants.

Boron is important for pollen tube growth and pollen grain germination.

The yellowing observed in RR (Roundup Ready) soybean after glyphosate application may be associated with momentary manganese (Mn) deficiency.

The maximum potential in soybean is genetically determined.

The most important quality criteria for soybean are protein and fat contents.

The goal is to have a healthy crop in quick growth and development in order to maximize yield.

Soybean has several uses, due to its composition it can be used for both human consumption and animal feed, in industrial products or feedstock for agroindustry.

The aim of the grower is to produce a high-yielding, quality crop that matches the needs of the intended market.

USA and Brazil are the largest soybean producers in the world.

Soybean contains approximately 40% protein in the grain, which is rich in nitrogen (N) and therefore, soybean needs for N are high.

Nitrogen is the most important plant nutrient for the soybean crop, and the one that is required in largest quantity.

There are a number of factors that have to be considered when selecting a variety of soybean that will have the genetic potential to produce a good crop in accordance with the local conditions.

The most important ingredients in soybean are protein and oil contents.
