When is the best time to plant soybeans?

Soybean is best planted in early spring, and it is usually sown in March-April in the south. Soybeans should be prepared for deep ploughing, and can be directly planted and transplanted. Direct seeding is to drill holes and sow seeds, and transplanting is to raise seedlings on the seedbed, cover the seeds with soil and wait for germination. When the bean seedlings grow to four or five centimeters, they can be transplanted.

Soybean planting time

Soybean is usually planted in June, but in the north, it is usually planted between April and May. At this time, the temperature environment is more conducive to germination and later growth, and it can be harvested about half a year after planting. In addition, there are autumn beans now, which are planted between the end of July and August.

Southern soybean planting time: It is best to plant soybeans in early spring, and generally sow soybeans in March-April in the south.

Planting time of northern soybeans: The northern soybeans are sown in two seasons, in the middle and late April in spring and in the middle and late July in summer.

Key points of soybean planting management

When soybean seedlings grow two single leaves, they should be transplanted manually to keep strong seedlings. When the first compound leaf is unfolded, shovel the head all over the floor, do a good job of chemical weeding, and apply urea and potassium dihydrogen phosphate at the later stage of growth to improve its yield.
