Climatic Requirement
Soybean is cultivated in warm and moist climate and grown in monsoon season from June-October. Temperature of 15-32°C is required for its germination. Optimum temperature required for its growth and yield is 30-33°C. If temperature is below 10°C, crop growth is retarded. Similarly, if temperatures are above 38°C, crop growth is also retarded. Day temperatures of 25 °C are good for its flowering. Crop can be grown in areas receiving 600-650 mm rainfall. Rainfall during maturity deteriorates the grain quality. Cloudy weather prolongs vegetative phase. The crop is generally cultivated at an attitude of 1,200-2,000 meter.
