During the last years soybean areas in Russia were increased fiftyfold, but the pace of soybean development significantly lags behind the leading countries of the world.The share of soybean is only one per cent of all worldwide sowings. The sowing areas in Altay Area vary from 10 till 23 thousand of hectare, being 18838 ha in 2014. The paper emphasizes the importance of soybean as a food and fodder crop.
