abstract The investigation was aimed at testing the seed resistance to fracture.The seeds of the three outstanding varieties of soybean in Vojvodina (Corsoy, NS 16 and NS 106) were exposed to fracture during the simultaneous laboratory investigations. The results obtained explain which one of these three varieties is the most resistant to mechanical effect - that of the harvesting device in the first place.
