Influence of row distance on Soybean yield

Abstract

The investigation was conducted during 2000 and 2001 in order to determine the influence of row distance on soybean yield. Grain yield was not significant different between observed planting variants. The highest yield was obtained by variety Vojvođanka, and the lowest by variety Afrodita, in average for both years. Interaction between variety and row distance indicate that genotypes express different reaction relate on row space changes. Obtained results suggest applying the specific agricultural practice for each variety in soybean production. The knowledge of specific requirements of variety could contribute to a good results in soybean production.

Tokom 2000. i 2001. godine obavljena su istraživanja sa ciljem da se ustanovi u kojoj meri promena međurednog razmaka utiče na prinos soje. Razlike u prinosu između varijanti setve u proseku za obe godine nisu bile statistički značajne. U proseku za obe godine ispitivanja najviši prinos ostvarila je sorta Vojvođanka, a najniži sorta Afrodita. Interakcija između sorte i međurednog razmaka pokazuje da genotipovi soje različito reaguju na promenu međurednog razmaka. Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata preporučuje se primena sortne agrotehnike u proizvodnji soje, jer samo poznavanjem specifičnih zahteva svake sorte mogu se ostvariti dobri proizvodni rezultati.
