Aspects of soybean crop ecophysiology and management
Abstract
This review aims to detail some of the factors that determine the soybean crop yield focusing on recent contributions to the knowledge of ecophysiology, growth and development processes, and crop yield generation. It seeks to identify the factors that define and limit soybean yields, and that can be used to guide practices aimed at achieving maximum yields, contributing to the crop sustainability and reducing the yield gaps that currently exist. Some aspects of the agronomic management of soybean cultivation are also analyzed, such as: i) sowing date, ii) choice of genotype, iii) plant population density, and iv) nutritional management. Was considered scientific and technological knowledge achieved for the soybean growing region in Argentina, with emphasis on the south central region of Córdoba province.
