Variety traits

Plant height — soybean

Glycine max (L.) Merr.

A key morphometric trait of soybean that determines harvest efficiency and grain loss. It varies from 20 to 150 cm depending on the growth type and growing conditions.

In the reference 273 varieties crop Soybean, where this is mentioned in the description.

Soybean plant height is measured in centimeters and classified by growth type: determinate forms are usually short, while indeterminate ones continue vegetative growth during flowering. When evaluating a variety, the key parameter is the height of the lowest pod attachment, the optimal value of which is 14–20 cm to minimize losses during combine harvesting.

This trait depends on agrotechnical factors such as planting density, moisture availability, and soil fertility. Excessively tall plants are prone to lodging, which hinders machinery operation, while values that are too low lead to technological crop losses during harvesting.

General information about the subject — on the page Plant height.
