The study looked at how watering and fertilizing soybean plants affected their growth and yield during dry years. Watering the plants increased their leaf size, weight, number of pods, and seed production when there wasn't enough rain. Using fertilizer also helped, with the best results seen when both water and fertilizer were used. Watering made the plants absorb more fertilizer, leading to better growth and more seeds. So, watering and fertilizing soybeans can help them grow better and produce more seeds, especially when it's dry.
