Variety traits

Vegetation Period — Soybean

Glycine max (L.) Merr.

The full development cycle of soybean from germination to bean maturity, ranging from 75 to 170 days, depending on the crop's photoperiodic sensitivity and Crop Heat Units (CHU).

In the reference 173 varieties crop Soybean, where this is mentioned in the description.

The vegetation period of soybean is measured by the number of days from seedling emergence to full maturity, as well as by the Crop Heat Units (CHU) index, which accounts for temperature dynamics. Depending on the length of the period, varieties are classified into groups ranging from ultra-early, requiring less than 2300 CHU, to late-maturing, with cycles lasting up to 170 days.

Soybean is a short-day plant; therefore, its vegetation period extends when moving north and shortens when moving south. The selection of a maturity group determines the yield potential and adaptability of a variety: late-maturing forms are more productive but require a long favorable period, whereas early-maturing varieties allow for avoiding drought stress factors and fit effectively into crop rotations.
