Productivity

Best time to sow soybeans in lowlands

Choosing the soybean sowing date does not entail costs for the producer and modifies the productive potential and water availability throughout the development cycle. Furthermore, it is a strategy to minimize the risk of loss of productivity due to stress.

Environment/Atmosphere

Climate and management in soybean productivity

The definition of a method that makes it possible to distinguish between these two sources of variation in soybean crop productivity is of great use to producers and consultants, as it makes it possible to define the strategies to be adopted to minimize losses.

Soybean

Nutritional imbalance in soy

Since the 2009/10 harvest, soybean crops have manifested symptoms such as wrinkling of the leaf blade, thickening of veins, blackening of leaves, abortion of flowers and pods, poor grain formation and oversprouting. Among the hypotheses to explain this anomaly is the probable potassium deficiency

Herbicides

Herbicides associated with desiccation

When desiccating areas for cultivation, the association of residual herbicides with management herbicides becomes an interesting alternative. Among the products that have a residual effect and that can be associated with glyphosate in the management of weeds that are difficult to control during desiccation, it is possible to list diclosulam, flumioxazin, chlorimuron and imazethapyr
