Soybean DH863

DH863 soybean variety is an early-maturing determinate type with an intensive growth habit, recommended for cultivation in various regions, including the Far East and forest-steppe zones. The vegetative period is approximately 110 days, ensuring rapid maturation and drying of plants. The variety features medium plant height — from 60 to 75 cm, and 1000-seed mass ranges from 140 to 197 grams, indicating good seed density and quality.

DH863 has a high yield potential, reaching up to 2.3 tons per hectare, and is versatile in terms of soil types, making it suitable for various agroclimatic conditions. Plants have light-brown pubescence and light-yellow hilum, with purple-colored flowers. The variety is characterized by medium branching ability and medium height, which contributes to resistance against adverse conditions.

Particular attention is given to seed quality parameters: protein content reaches 44-45%, and oil content varies from 17.16% to 21.8%, making this variety attractive for producing soy-based products such as tofu, miso, and soy sauce. Additionally, DH863 exhibits high tolerance to sclerotinia and other major soybean diseases, as well as resistance to stress factors, ensuring stable yields and high product quality.
