Abstract
The aim of the research was to determine the reaction of two soybean cultivars to the different sowing date. The arrangement of weather conditions was variable in individual years and had a modifying effect on the assessed features and parameters. As a result, the seed yield ranged from 3.95 t‧ha–1 in 2017 to 4.81 t·ha–1 in 2018. Sowing seeds in the third decade of April resulted in a significant increase in the plant density before harvesting, but at the same time decreased the number of pods on the plant. The highest MTN was obtained after sowing the seeds at the latest date. Sowing seeds in the second decade of April allowed to obtain a higher seed yield by 0.37 t·ha–1 compared to sowing in the first decade of May. The May sowing date significantly increased the protein content in seeds in relation to the earliest sowing date. Protein and fat yields did not differ significantly in terms of variety and sowing date. The cultivar Alligator produced more pods on the plant, while the cultivar ‘Abelina’ produced seeds with a higher MTN. The cultivars studied did not differ significantly in seed yield, which amounted to 4.43 t·ha–1 on average.
