When is soybean harvested for the highest yield?

Soybean is a plant of the genus Glycine max in the family Fabaceae. It is native to China and is grown in various parts of China. Later, it was spread throughout the world. Mature soybeans are rich in protein and are the main source of plant protein. They can also be made into a variety of important soy products.

Soybean ripening

Soybeans usually mature around July and August . The growth cycle of soybeans is about 5 months, and the harvest time varies depending on the variety. But generally speaking, the most common time for soybeans to mature is around July and August each year. Soybeans from most production areas in China and the United States mature at this time.

Soybean harvest

Soybeans can be divided into spring sowing and summer sowing. Spring soybeans are generally sown around the Qingming Festival and harvested around early September . Summer soybeans are generally sown after wheat is harvested and harvested at the end of September or early October .

Soybean Origin and Yield

Soybeans, also known as yellow beans, are produced throughout the country and have a very high yield. The main producing areas are in China's Northeast region. In addition, the soybean areas in the Huanghuai River Basin, the Yangtze River Basin, the four-season soybean areas in South China, the southeast soybean areas, and the Loess Plateau spring soybean sub-area are all major soybean producing areas in my country.

The soybean yield per mu in areas with superior planting conditions is more than 600 jin. Under normal circumstances, the soybean yield per mu is mostly between 300-500 jin. If the local planting environment is not good, the yield per mu is between 100-200 jin.
