Soybean Ros

The Ross soybean variety is a medium-early indeterminate variety with an intermediate plant form and gray stem pubescence. The plants are of medium height, reaching 90-115 cm, with purple flowers and oval green side leaves of medium size. The seeds are large, elongated-flattened in shape, yellow in color with a brown hilum, with a 1000-seed mass varying from 163 to 230 g. The height of attachment of the lower pod is 15.7-17.2 cm, while the percentage of pods below 15 cm does not exceed 1%.

The variety is characterized by high resistance to lodging and seed shattering, ensuring crop safety. During years of field testing, no disease damage was recorded. The Ross soybean is adapted for cultivation in the Central Black Earth and Far Eastern regions, where it demonstrates a medium yield of about 14.7 c/ha and a maximum of 31.7 c/ha.

Protein content in seeds is about 32.5-40%, and fat is 20.4-21%, making this variety attractive for the production of products with high nutritional and energy potential. The sum of active temperatures from germination to maturity is approximately 2350 °C, corresponding to medium-early maturity periods with a tendency to early maturity in individual years.
