ABSTRACT Soybean is the main crop grown in Brazil and is important to quantify the capacity of increase in yield by crop production intensification and management. This study aims to quantify yield gap and agricultural efficiency (AE) for soybean in Central Cerrado biome, Brazil. Yield gap by management (YGMG) and water deficit (YGWD) and AE and climate efficiency (CE) were calculated based on potential (PoY), attainable (AtY) and actual (AcY) yields. Potential yields and AtY were simulated for the main sowing date, ranging from Oct 11 to Nov 01, using the agroecological zone crop model, from 1980/81 to 2016/17 growing seasons. The sites were Rio Verde (GO), Cristalina (GO), Barreiras (BA) and Peixe (TO). Actual yield was obtained from official statistics for each site. Agricultural efficiency rate for this period and its relationship with CE were analyzed. The YGMG were 4,345, 3,446, 4,531 and 2,649 kg·ha–1 for Rio Verde, Cristalina, Peixe and Barreiras, respectively. Barreiras had a higher YGWD when compared with other sites, reaching a mean of 6,526 kg·ha–1. However, Barreiras had a higher AE (51%), indicating that crop management applied in this region can explore the environmental conditions more than other sites. Agricultural efficiency showed an increasing rate from 0.70 to 1.21% per year, while the relation between AE and CE fitted an exponential negative function, by which higher water volume available reduced AE. Thus, it is possible to double soybean yield through improvements in management based on AtY (7,409 kg·ha–1) and AcY (3,260 kg·ha–1) in Central Cerrado biome, Brazil.

Main inputs and yield per hectare of soybean in Mato Grosso state, Brazil (growing season of 2007/08, 2008/09 and 2009/10).

In the crop year 2023/2024, rice was the grain crop with the highest yield in Brazil, at around 6.9 metric tons of grain per hectare planted. Production of rice in the country was forecasted to reach approximately 10.8 million tons that crop year. Soybean, which was the grain with the largest planted area, was expected to yield 3.31 tons per hectare that year.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of raised seedbeds associated with irrigation on the yield of soybean (Glycine max) rotated with rice (Oryza sativa) in lowland conditions in Southern Brazil. Field experiments were conducted in two crop seasons (2014/2015 and 2015/2016), with two planting systems (raised seedbed and flat planting) and two irrigation managements (irrigated and nonirrigated). Water use, biological nitrogen fixation, and yield were evaluated. The water used for raised seedbeds was 14% (151 m3 ha-1) and 27% (163 m3 ha-1) lower than that for flat planting in the first and second crop seasons, respectively. Irrigation increased nodule number per plant, nodule dry weight, and biological nitrogen fixation. The average grain yield of the raised seedbed system was 10% (529 kg ha-1) and 9% (362 kg ha-1) higher than that of flat planting in 2014/2015 and 2015/2016, respectively. Irrigation improved yield by 5% (203 kg ha-1) and 7% (265 kg ha-1) in each crop year. The use of raised seedbeds associated with irrigation improves the yield of soybean grown in rotation with rice in lowland in Southern Brazil.

ABSTRACT Brazil stands out worldwide for its high grain production in areas of direct sowing. The objective of this study was to simulate and assess the relationship of soil organic carbon content and nitrogen, crop yield, and biomass of two crop sequences under the no-tillage system in a subtropical region of São Paulo, Brazil, using CSM-CROPGRO-Soybean and CSM-CERES-Maize models. The modeling was carried out considering the meteorological conditions of Jaboticabal, SP, Brazil. The treatments consisted of combining two summer crops (maize and soybean) with maize cultivation as a winter crop. The average biomass and productivity for corn were 15594 kg ha−1 and 5996 kg ha−1, respectively, and for soybeans they were 5905 kg ha−1 and 3441 kg ha−1, respectively. For soil organic carbon and nitrogen, a small variation was observed between years, and in addition there was a decline in their levels after a year with low biomass production. In our study, the RMSE and MAPE values between the observed and simulated productivity by the model were 2.21 kg ha−1 and 44.24%, respectively. The analysis of main components for the cultivation of corn explained 83.9% of the variability, and for the cultivation of soy, 93.5%. Among the tested models, the CROPGRO was the one with the best accuracy.

In 2023, exports of soybean from Brazil reached nearly *** million metric tons, an increase of ** percent when compared to the previous year. This is also the highest figure reported in the decade. In turn, Brazilian soybean exports were valued at approximately **** billion U.S. dollars that year. An undisputed market leader As Brazil’s annual soybean exports nearly tripled in one decade, the South American country went on to become the largest exporter of this oilseed in the world. This result is mostly associated with an increasing demand from China, the leading destination for Brazilian soybean exports. Meanwhile, global soybean meal and soybean oil exports are dominated by Brazil’s southern neighbor, Argentina. Nevertheless, the Portuguese-speaking country ranks second worldwide. Domestic soybean demand also on a rise Parallel to a growth in international demand for this commodity, the domestic consumption of soybean in Brazil has also seen a continual rise in the past decade, estimated at more than **** million metric tons in 2022/23. In the industrial sector, this oilseed is mainly associated with the biofuels segment. In 2022, more than **** million cubic meters of soybean oil were used for biodiesel diesel production in Brazil, making it the leading raw material used for this purpose.

ABSTRACT Soybean cropping has been growing in recent years in environments with sandy soils and with climatic risk, but yield is low, especially in the early years. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of cover crops and nitrogen management in a sandy soil previously under degraded pastures on soybean yield. The study was conducted in Western São Paulo state, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks, with four replicates, and the treatments were: black oats; black oats + 50 kg ha-1 of N in black oats; black oats + 50 kg ha-1 of N in soybean; black oats + lupine; black oats + lupine + 50 kg ha-1 of N in soybean; lupine; fallow; fallow + 50 kg ha-1 of N in soybean. Nitrogen concentration of the microbial biomass was higher with oats + N in soybean applied at the beginning of flowering (R1). The number of nodules in soybean roots increased by 2.3 times with oats and oats + N in soybean as compared to fallow. Soybean yield was higher in treatments with oats + N in oats (2,130 kg ha-1), oats (2,038 kg ha-1) and oats + N in soybean (1,872 kg ha-1). In the absence of cover crops, N fertilization in soybean increased yield by 19% (262 kg ha-1) compared to fallow. Black oats are the best option to increase soybean yield. However, in the absence of cover crops, nitrogen fertilization in soybean is necessary.

Soybean is by far the most important grain crop in Brazil, based on planted area. During crop year 2023/2024, it was estimated that more than ** million hectares in the country were planted with this oilseed. The crop also accounted for nearly half of the agricultural production value in Brazil in 2021. The area planted with grain crops in Brazil was forecast at around ** million hectares in the 2023/2024 crop year.
