Twenty soybean varieties suitable for ecological areas were identified and classified from 2017 to 2018 in the experimental field of Yanbian Academy of Agricultural Sciences. According to the yield potential and response to N, P, K fertilizer, the varieties were divided into four types: high efficient with high response（HH）, high efficient with low response（HL）, low efficient with high response（LH） and low efficient with low response（LL）. The lodging situation and agronomic traits of different types of soybean varieties were studied to identify the best varieties suitable for local cultivation and meeting different needs. The results show that: there were nine soybean varieties with HH,which were the best variety for production, three soybean varieties with HL, which were the first choice for reducing weight and increasing efficiency, six soybean varieties with LH could be selected properly, two soybean varieties with LL, which were not recommended for production and application. The lodging of LL varieties was serious under fertilization and no fertilization, and most of the other three types showed light lodging symptoms. When compared with the low response varieties, the high response varieties to N, P, K showed significantly increased plant height,node number, branch number, pod weight per plant, seed weight per plant and 100-grain weight.
