The main characteristics of soybean production in crop production regions in Vojvodina

Abstract

The average harvested soybean areas vary from 693 ha in Northern Srem to 37,402 ha in South Backa. About 70% of harvested soybean areas are concentrated in three regions (South and Western Backa and South Srem). The share of soybean in total industrial crops’ areas is the highest in Western Backa region (54.48%), and the lowest in Northern Banat (8.38%). In the period analyzed (2003-2005) the highest yields were achieved in South Banat region (2.529 kg/ha) and the lowest in Northern Banat region (1.636 kg/ha). The most important regions for the soybean production are South Backa and Western Backa, where about 60% of total soybean production produces. One can say that further increasing of soybean production is justified in the regions where high yields are achieved, but share of soybean in production structure is still small.

U radu se analiziraju površine, prinosi i proizvodnja soje po pojedinim ratarskim rejonima Vojvodine u periodu 2003-2005 godine. Požete površine soje variraju od 693 ha (Severni Srem) do 37.402 ha (Južna Bačka). Najveći prinosi soje su ostvareni u Južnom Banatu (2529 kg/ha) a najniži u Severnom Banatu(1636 kg/ha). Međutim ukoliko se rangiranje izvrši u pogledu požetih površina i visine ostvarenog prinosa izdvajaju se rejoni Južna i Zapadna Bačka u kojima se proizvede 60% ukupne proizvodnje soje. U narednom periodu od posebnog značaja je širenje soje na seljačkim gazdinstvima i to u rejonima gde se postižu visoki prinosi a zastupljenost useva je mala (Južni Banat).
