Yield increase
Key Conclusions
The application of BEOZ® Nephrite at the V3 growth stage had a clear, positive impact on soybean performance. Treated plants developed stronger main and lateral roots, enabling better access to moisture and nutrients. Nodule activity remained active for a longer period, extending the effective vegetation cycle and supporting sustained growth. These improvements resulted in a higher number of pods per plant, confirming the product’s strong influence on reproductive development and final yield.
BEOZ® Nephrite demonstrated the ability to:
- Extend the period of active nodule function
- Strengthen main and lateral root development
- Increase the number of beans per plant
- Improve yield compared with the untreated control
Objective
Evaluate the effect of BEOZ® Nephrite on root development, nodule activity, vegetative growth, and yield of soybean under field conditions.
Trial Details
Treatments
BEOZ® Nephrite was applied to the trial plot in the rate of 0.3 kg/ha in the V3 growth stage. The control plot received no treatment.

Results
Root Development
Plants treated with BEOZ® Nephrite developed stronger main roots and a higher number of lateral roots, improving nutrient uptake and early vigor.
Nodule Activity & Vegetation Period
The treated variant maintained active nodules for a longer period, extending the vegetation cycle and supporting more efficient nitrogen fixation.

Visibly more viable root nodules in the plot treated with BEOZ Nephrite (right).
Pod Formation
BEOZ® Nephrite increased the number of pods per plant, indicating improved reproductive performance.
Yield
The combined improvements in root system, nodule activity, and bean formation resulted in a yield increase of + 15.6% compared with the control.
