Agro-economic prospects for expanding soybean production beyond its current northerly limit in Europe

Kathleen Karges et al.

Summary: The study found that feed-grade soybean cultivars were better adapted to the central European climate compared to food-grade cultivars, providing higher and more stable yields. Irrigation increased soybean grain yields by an average of 41%, with no additional irrigation required in years with sufficient rainfall. Gross margins for organic soybean were higher than other crops, indicating a large agro-economic potential for soybean cultivation in central Europe as a novel grain legume crop.

Field validation of a farmer supplied data approach to close soybean yield gaps in the US North Central region

Jose F. Andrade et al.

Summary: This study validates the capability of a producer-data approach to guide on-farm evaluation of management practices with the potential to increase yield and profit. Using soybean as a case study, it demonstrates the feasibility of this approach. Adoption of the improved management package significantly increases yield and profit, with minimal risk across different grain price scenarios.

Estimation of spatial distribution of irrigated crop areas in Europe for large-scale modelling applications

Zuzanna Zajac et al.

Summary: This study presents the European Irrigation Map for the year 2010, derived from the agricultural census data in the European Union. The map provides detailed information on the location and extent of irrigated croplands in Europe, which is crucial for understanding hydrology, water availability, and agriculture. The evaluation of the map against independent geospatial data shows satisfactory agreement and its availability is valuable for large-scale modeling applications involving irrigated agriculture.

Summary: Digital soil mapping (DSM) is increasingly used to deliver soil information efficiently. Research shows that while the number of DSM publications continues to grow exponentially, the majority focus on applications rather than methodology, with a particular emphasis on the mandatory soil properties for global soil mapping.

Could domestic soybean production avoid Europe's protein imports in 2050?

Philippe Debaeke et al.

Summary: The European Union has a high demand for plant proteins and is launching initiatives to reduce soybean imports and promote domestic production. By adopting healthy diets and increasing crop yields, Europe's reliance on imports can be significantly reduced.

Data-driven projections suggest large opportunities to improve Europe's soybean self-sufficiency under climate change

Nicolas Guilpart et al.

Summary: This study used data-driven relationships and machine learning to predict future soybean production in Europe, suggesting that achieving 50% self-sufficiency level would be possible by dedicating 4-5% of current European cropland to soybean production. These findings have important implications for farmers, policymakers, and agribusiness.

Root system architecture, physiological and transcriptional traits of soybean (Glycine maxL.) in response to water deficit: A review

Rentao Xiong et al.

Summary: Drought stress is a significant limiting factor for soybean growth and production globally. Improving genetic traits related to water and nutrient uptake efficiency is crucial for enhancing tolerance and promoting sustainable and resilient production. This review focuses on identifying quantitative traits and genes associated with water and nutrient absorption to enhance understanding of drought tolerance mechanisms in soybean. It also highlights the importance of genes controlling root system architecture as targets for breeding strategies to improve drought tolerance in soybean, discussing candidate genes regulating key root traits and responses to water stress. Progress in understanding specific genes like GmACX1, GmMS, and GmPEPCK is discussed in relation to developing a system-based platform for genetic enhancement of drought tolerance in soybean.

Digital mapping of the soil thickness of loess deposits over a calcareous bedrock in central France

Songchao Chen et al.

Summary: The study tested the prediction of loess thickness (TOL) by coupling a large soil dataset and environmental covariates. Using recursive feature elimination for variable selection and quantile regression forests for spatial modeling, the models showed good performance with reasonable prediction uncertainty. Airborne gamma-ray radiometric data and Sentinel 2 products were identified as important variables for the prediction of TOL.

Characterization of Root System Architecture Traits in Diverse Soybean Genotypes Using a Semi-Hydroponic System

Shuo Liu et al.

Summary: Phenotypic variation and correlations among root traits in soybean varieties play a crucial role in plant growth and adaptation strategies. By using a semi-hydroponic system, this study explored the variability in root morphological traits of 171 soybean genotypes, identifying significant positive correlations between root length/mass and shoot mass. The reliability of the semi-hydroponic system in phenotyping root trait variability at the early growth stage in soybean germplasms was validated through consistent rankings of genotypes in important root traits.

Effect of Sowing Date on Soybean Development in South-Western Poland

Magdalena Serafin-Andrzejewska et al.

Summary: Soybean is a plant sensitive to weather changes, with sowing dates playing a crucial role in its development and yield. Delaying the sowing date can shorten the growth period and affect the yield. It is important to pay special attention to selecting proper sowing dates and breeding varieties adapted to local conditions.

Climate impacts on global agriculture emerge earlier in new generation of climate and crop models

Jonas Jagermeyr et al.

Summary: This study conducted systematic global agricultural yield projections using the latest generation of crop and climate models. The results indicate that substantial shifts in global crop productivity due to climate change will occur within the next 20 years, highlighting the need for targeted food system adaptation and risk management in the coming decades.

Halting European Union soybean feed imports favours ruminants over pigs and poultry

Johan O. Karlsson et al.

Summary: The study suggests that reducing the EU's dependency on imported soybean feed can avoid increasing cropland use within the EU for feed production. However, this may result in lower EU pork and poultry production, requiring an increase in plant-based food consumption to maintain the nutritional balance of human diets.
