Title Of Article :
Performance of some soybean cultivars under conventional and organic agriculture conditions
Abstract :
Adaptation ability of some soybean cultivars as main crop to conventional and organic agriculture conditions related with yield and yield components was investigated in this research. Field experiments within the framework of the project were conducted in İzmir-Bornova during 2007-2008 growing seasons with five different soybean cultivars. Plant height, first pod height, branch number, pod number per plant, seed number per pod, 100 seed weight and seed yield of cultivars which obtained from conventional and organic treatments were determined and comparatively evaluated. The mean yield was 294.4 kg/da in conventional conditions whereas 226.8 kg/da in organic conditions over the two years and five cultivars. It was concluded that cultivar Nova was more suitable for conventional system while Umut and secondly S4240 appeared to be more promising cultivars for organic conditions.
