Soybean SELEKTA 302

SELEKTA 302 is a mid-season determinate grain soybean variety characterized by high yield and resistance to adverse conditions. The vegetative period is 115-120 days, with maturity occurring in the first or second decade of September. The plant is tall, with gray pubescence, reaching a height of 120-150 cm, featuring purple flowers and large green oval leaves. Pods have an intense brown color ranging from medium to dark, with yellow, medium-sized seeds and yellow hilums. The attachment height of the lower pod varies from 9.9 to 16.8 cm. The mass of 1000 seeds ranges from 134.7 to 190 g.

The variety is distinguished by high resistance to lodging and pod cracking during prolonged storage, ensuring crop preservation. It is also drought-resistant and resistant to bacterial blight, while responding well to optimized irrigation and mineral fertilization, which contributes to increased yield. SELEKTA 302 is plastic to various row widths, allowing adaptation to different cultivation technologies. The average yield in the region is about 20.2 c/ha, reaching a potential of up to 5.5 t/ha under favorable conditions and irrigation, with maximum yield indicators in Krasnodar Krai reaching up to 53.7 c/ha.

Protein content in the seeds of the variety is high — averaging 36.2%, with maximum values up to 41%, while fat content reaches 23-25%. Due to these indicators and resistance to adverse factors, SELEKTA 302 is recommended for cultivation as a grain-forage variety, including in mixtures with corn. This approach allows for effective use of the variety's potential and obtaining stable yields under various climatic conditions.
