Yes and no. Soybean seed produced in the US is available in different maturity groups based on the latitude in which they are to be grown. Group 0 varieties are bred for production in the far northern states and southern Canada, while Group 6 varieties are for the southern states. These different groups have very different intended planting date ranges based on day length and length of growing season. Within one group, though, the planting date can be varied by as much as a month or more, allowing the farmer some leeway so he can ensure optimal field conditions.
