Forty Soybean Cultivars from Subsequent Harvests

Donated on 10/28/2023

Soybean cultivation is one of the most important because it is used in several segments of the food industry. The evaluation of soybean cultivars subject to different planting and harvesting characteristics is an ongoing field of research. We present a dataset obtained from forty soybean cultivars planted in subsequent seasons. The experiment used randomized blocks, arranged in a split-plot scheme, with four replications. The following variables were collected: plant height, insertion of the first pod, number of stems, number of legumes per plant, number of grains per pod, thousand seed weight, and grain yield, resulting in 320 data samples. The dataset presented can be used by researchers from different fields of activity.

Dataset Information

For what purpose was the dataset created?

To study soybean cultivars harvested in subsequent seasons.

Who funded the creation of the dataset?

There was no cash financing, but support for carrying out the experiments by Accert Pesquisa e Consultoria Agronomia, located in Balsas, Maranhão, Brazil.

What do the instances in this dataset represent?

The average values of 10 plants per plot at harvest (phase R8).

Are there recommended data splits?

We recommend that stratified cross-validation be applied, so that the same cultivar does not appear in the training and test sets simultaneously.

Does the dataset contain data that might be considered sensitive in any way?

No data is confidential

Was there any data preprocessing performed?

The data presented is raw data
