Einfluss der Saatzeit bei Sojabohnen

Summary in the original language of the document

Four seeding dates (end of March, mid and end of April, onset of May) of soybeans were compared in a yearlong field trial in Bavaria. Soy plants with seeding date at the onset of May were damaged by doves, but only the development was delayed for approximately one week and the number of plants was not influenced. Grain yield and crude protein yield was highest with seeding at the end of April. Seeding at May resulted in significant lower dry matter content and obviously delayed harvest with the risk of a complete loss.
