Abstract

In northeastern Ethiopia, soybean [Glycine max (L) Merril] is one of the most important legume crops. However, one of the manufacturing bottlenecks is the lack of high-quality seeds. Quality seed production necessitates the development of seeds from improved types under optimal growth conditions and storage for the shortest time possible. The purpose of this study was to see how seed source and storage time affected the seed quality of four soybean types. Four cultivars (AFGAT, Cheri, Clark 63k, and Davis) x two seed sources (rain-fed and irrigation) x two storage durations (one and two years stored at ambient temperatures) were arranged in factorial combinations for the treatments. At the Pawe Agricultural Research Center laboratory, treatments were evaluated using a completely randomized design with four replications. The findings demonstrated that one or more major factors had a considerable impact on seed quality measures (variety, seed source and storage period. The findings of the experiment revealed that seed quality was significantly affected by the effects of variety, storage time, seed source, and the interaction of the two and/or three factors on seed characteristics. The seeds of improved varieties obtained from irrigation seed sources and maintained at room temperature for a year yielded high quality seeds in the majority of cases. As a result, it is recommended that varieties, seed source, and seed storage length be considered in order to generate high-quality seeds and increase soybean yield.
