Latest NS varieties of soybean

Abstract

Results obtained from a network of large-plot trials conducted in 2009 and several previous years have shown that there are a number of newly released NS cultivars of soybean that can be recommended for large-scale commercial growing. We have placed on the market a broad range of new cultivars differing in their growth period duration (maturity groups 000, 00, 0, I, II) and other agronomic traits (growing requirements, chemical grain composition, etc.). For the next planting season, we have secured sufficient quantities of top quality seed of both our well-established cultivars and our new releases, including the new early varieties Alisa, Galina and Bečejka, the medium-maturing new cultivars Sava and Diva, and the late-maturing new cultivars Rubin and Idila. We will also have limited quantities of our latest releases available, the varieties Iskra (I), Victoria (I) and Trijumf (II). We have recently registered four very early cultivars, Gracija (000), Julija (00), Mercur (00) and Prima (00), all of which are particularly suitable for growing soybean as the second crop. Our recommendation is that the new cultivars be introduced gradually to large-scale production and we are hoping they will become popular with the growers.

Rezultati iz mreže makroogleda prikupljeni tokom 2009. i nekoliko prethodnih godina ukazuju da se nekoliko novopriznatih NS sorti soje može preporučiti za širenje u proizvodnji. Radi se o širokoj lepezi novih sorti koje se međusobno razlikuju kako po dužini vegetacije (grupe zrenja 000, 00, 0, I, II) tako i po drugim agronomskim svojstvima (zahtevi prema uslovima gajenja, hemijski sastav zrna, itd). Pored trenutno aktuelnog sortimenta, za narednu setvu obezbeđene su dovoljne količine kvalitetnog semena novih ranostasnih NS-sorti Alisa, Galina i Bečejka, zatim srednjestasnih Sava i Diva, kao i kasnostasnih sorti Rubin i Idila. Dostupne su i ograničene količine najnovijih sorti Iskra (I), Victoria (I) i Trijumf (II). Nedavno su registrovane vrlo rane sorte Gracija (000), Julija (00), Mercur (00) i Prima (00) pogodne za gajenje soje kao drugog useva. Preporučujemo da se novi sortiment postepeno uključuje u proizvodnju i nadamo se da će biti dobro prihvaćen od proizvođača.
