New breeding achievements on soybeans

The practical results of soybean breeding at the Institute of Plant Industry nd. a. V.Ya. Yuriev NAAS are presented. The economic and biological characteristics of early ripening cultivars of grain use are presented in competitive and state variety testing. The levels of manifestation of economically valuable traits of cultivars in recommended for their cultivation natural-climatic zones of Ukraine are studied. The cultivars are characterized by a high yield potential: the Krynytsya - up to 4.36 t per ha, Pysanka - up to 3.86 t per ha, Melodiya - up to 3.47 t per ha, Rayduga - up to 3.07 t per ha, Krasunya - up to 3.41 t per ha. The average yield of the cultivars was 1.85-2.20 t per ha. At an average protein content in the seeds 41.4 %, oil content - 20.6 %, cultivars provide protein yields at the level of 0.852 t per ha, oil yield - 0.423 t per ha and their total - 1.276 t per ha.
