Abstract
The present study aims to evaluate the influence of plant spatial arrangement and water supplementation on soybean yield for the 2020/21 crop year, in the edaphoclimatic conditions of the central region of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil). The field experiment was installed in an experimental area of the Rio Grande do Sul State University (UERGS) in the city of Cachoeira do Sul. Supplementary irrigation provided positive increases in soybean yield between 13% (row spacing of 0.75 m) and 35% (row spacing of 0.50 m). The conventional row spacing of 0.50 m can be recommended as a spatial arrangement strategy for both irrigated areas (productivity 5,196.6 kg ha-1) and rainfed areas (productivity 3,360.0 kg ha-1), optimizing costs regarding the mechanization of farming.
