Soybean Silesia

Silesia soybean variety is a medium-oil, high-yielding variety with a yield potential of 4.5 to 5.0 tons per hectare. The vegetative period ranges from 95 to 105 days, making it one of the earliest high-yielding soybean varieties. The plant features rapid initial growth, a semi-branching habit, and a height of 70 to 90 cm. The lower pod attachment height ranges from 12 to 16 cm, facilitating harvest and reducing losses during collection. The 1000-seed weight varies from 170 to 190 grams, and the seeds are large with a light hilum.

The Silesia variety exhibits high adaptability to various soil-climate conditions, including drought and heat tolerance. It shows high resistance to lodging, pod cracking, as well as diseases such as phytophthora, sclerotinia, bacterial blight, downy mildew, and viral diseases. The plant has a high protein and oil content, making it attractive for industrial use. The recommended planting density is 600,000 to 700,000 plants per hectare, with a planting depth of 3 to 5 cm and row spacing from 12.5 to 45 cm.

Silesia soybean is highly adaptable to planting times and methods, allowing efficient use of the variety in various agronomic systems. Due to its strong initial growth energy and resistance to adverse factors, the variety ensures stable and high yields over several years. These characteristics make Silesia an optimal choice for farmers seeking quality and high soybean yields under diverse growing conditions.
