Consejos de cultivo

Inoculate soybean seed with Bradyrhizobium japonicum bacteria before planting in fields without recent soybean history — this enables nitrogen fixation.

Soybeans fix their own nitrogen, so they rarely need N fertilizer. Applying nitrogen actually reduces nodulation and wastes money.

Plant when soil temperature reaches 13°C — soybeans are sensitive to cold soil and germinate poorly below 10°C.

The R1-R5 growth stages (flowering through seed fill) are the critical water demand period — irrigation during this window has the highest yield return.

Harvest at 13% seed moisture for direct combine harvest. Delay increases pod shatter losses, especially with dry weather and wind.

Soybeans are an excellent rotation crop before corn — they leave 40-80 kg/ha of nitrogen credit in the soil from fixation.
