Sclerotina stem rot in soybean
Sclerotina is potentially the most damaging disease that occurs in all regions where soybean is grown. The infection results in yield losses and contamination of seed with sclerotia. Crop rotation and sowing of disease-free seed are the main control measures....
There is a grain legume for every field
Outcome The main outcome is the identification of a suitable grain legume species for a given farming situation or field. Selecting the right kind of legume crop can affect the yield potential. Length and warmth of growing season The first thing to consider is...

Effect of soybean cropping on floral diversity
Background Agroecosystems are biodiversity-depleted ecosystems. The expansion of arable land and the intensification of its use has displaced natural habitats and reduced the biodiversity of entire landscapes. Since agriculture dominates land use over most of...
Effects of soybean cropping on arthropods
Background Many agroecosystems are biodiversity-depleted ecosystems. The expansion of arable land and the intensification of its use has displaced natural habitats and reduced the biodiversity of entire landscapes. Since agriculture dominates land use over most...
High milk yields without soya? Yes we can.
Faba bean, grain pea, sweet lupin and soybean for feeding cattle
Agro-economic prospects for expanding soybean production beyond its current northerly limit in Europe
Faba bean, grain pea, sweet lupin and soybean for pig feeding
Feeding extruded soybean to pigs
Case study data Two experiments were conducted. The Danube White breed was used in the first, and a Danube White x Pietren cross was used in the second. The first experiment was performed using three treatments (I (control), II and III). The Treatment II group...

Soybean growth stages and requirements
Cold-pressed soybean for poultry
Case study data We examined the effect of the feed used by three different egg producers. These egg producers are located in north-west and north-central Bulgaria. All three are specialised egg and poultry producers with their own feed mills. Two used imported...

Water use and irrigation in soybean
Water requirements at growth stages Soybean uses water efficiently. Depending on weather and soil, it uses 400–700 mm water as rainfall, irrigation or from soil to form a yield of 3 tonnes/ha. Soybean uses 1,300 to 2,300 tonnes of water per tonne of soybean...

Risk management of downy mildew in soybean
Biology The plant pathogen P. manshurica exists currently in more than 30 different races. There is little relevant difference between races in virulence and response to management. This might change due to the ability of P. manshurica to rapidly adapt to the...
Choosing soybean cultivars
Selection criteria Progress to maturity (earliness): selection principles Depending on the autumn conditions of a site, harvesting in September is generally preferred while ripening in October increases risks with weather. The growing season from crop emergence...
Drill-seeding of soybean
Outcome Good crop establishment is the key to high soybean yields. Practical experience has shown that drill seeders are suitable for achieving high yields. Drill seeders sow in narrow rows which contribute to an early canopy closure which increases the...
