kuldeep ji soyabean cultivation gives good result, when grown on well drained, fertile loamy soils. pH of 6 to 7.5 is favourable for optimum yield of soybean. Water logged, saline/alkaline soils are not suitable for its cultivation. Low temperature affect crop severely.POPULAR VARIETIES :- SL 525: Ready to harvest in 144 days. Seeds are uniform and bold. It gives resistance to yellow mosaic virus and give tolerance to stem blight and root knot nematodes. Gives average yield of 6 qtl/acre. SL 744: Ready to harvest in 139 days. Grains are of light yellow color. It is resistant to yellow mosaic virus. Gives average yield of 7.3 qtl/acre. SL 958: Ready to harvest in 142 days. Gives average yield of 7.3 qtl/acre.

Prepared field by giving two to three ploughings followed by planking. First fortnight of June is best time for sowing Soybean. While sowing use row to row spacing of 45 cm and plant to plant spacing of 4-7 cm. Sow seeds at depth of 2.5-5 cm. Sow seeds with help of seed drill.Use seed rate of 25-30 kg for sowing in one acre land.Apply FYM or well decomposed cowdung@4 ton/acre. Also apply Nitrogen@12.5 kg and Phosphorus@32 kg in form of Urea@28kg and SSP@200 kg per acre at time of sowing. To obtain good growth and optimum yield, take spray of Urea@3 kg/150 ltr of water on 60th and 75th day after sowing.To keep field weed free, two hoeing are required, give first hoeing 20 days after sowing and second hoeing 40 days after sowing. To control weed chemically, after sowing, within two days, take spray of Pendimethalin@800 ml/acre in 100-200 ltrs of water.Overall crop required three to four irrigation. Irrigation at time of pod filling stage is necessary. Water stress at this period will affect yield drastically. Apply irrigation depending upon rainfall conditions. No irrigation required in good rainfall conditions.Pods become dry and leaves changes their color to yellow and fall of, it is sign of crop is ready for harvesting. Harvest the crop with sickle or by hand. After harvesting, carry out threshing operation. this is all information about soyabean.
