Soybean ALPETERA

ALPETERA is a soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) variety belonging to early and early-maturing crops with a vegetative period of about 101 days. The plants are indeterminate, of medium height, with varying hair coloration on the stem — from reddish-brown to gray. The flowers of the variety can be white or purple, and the seeds have a yellow color with a gray or yellow hilum. The mass of 1000 seeds varies within 136-171.7 grams, indicating the large-fruited nature of the variety.


The variety is characterized by high resistance to waterlogging, lodging, and shattering, making it a reliable choice for cultivation in complex climatic conditions. The height of attachment of the lower pod is from 9.9 to 16 cm, which facilitates harvest collection. Average yield in the Far Eastern region reaches 17.6-19.4 centners per hectare, with maximum indicators up to 33.4 centners per hectare, confirming the high productivity of the variety.


The seeds of the ALPETERA variety are characterized by high protein content — about 37.6-39.0%, and fat — 21.4-22.5%, making them valuable raw material for the food and feed industries. Thanks to their agronomic and biochemical characteristics, the variety is suitable for cultivation in various regions, especially in the Far East. Early flowering onset and adaptability to climatic conditions ensure stable crop formation and high product quality.
