How to grow soybean
Soybeans are edible legumes. Soybeans are very nutritious,
They are high in protein, fiber, calcium, iron, magnesium, and other minerals & vitamins. Soybeans are also very versatile, as they can be fermented, dried, and turned into products like milk, flour, tofu or cooked just like that and more. Soy is a beneficial crop for many commercial farmers, but you can also grow them in a small garden area.
Soybeans need well drained average soil and a warm area with full sun exposure. Soybeans are not tolerant to frost as they are a warm season crop, they can only grow in summers.
If the soil quality is too poor, then mixing organic fertilizers in the soil before planting will be a better choice for quality results.
Each soybean plant needs a minimum of 5 inches of spacing.
One nutrient that soy plants require a lot of is nitrogen.
The best way to ensure that they get what they need is to inoculate the beans with
Bradyrhizobium japonicum, which is a nitrogen-fixing soil bacterium.
