An experiment to study the effect of drying on soybean seed quality was undertaken at Bogor Research Institute for Food Crop in 1988. Two soybean varieties (Wilis and Tidar) were used, different wet soybean sample were dried until a moisture content of 9 percent with 3 drying-mix periods, namely 4 hours, 2 hours, and 1 hour, respectively. The dry soybeans were threshed using two methods, using the mechanical power (digebuk) and the physical power (rontok sendiri). The best result was obtained when soybean straw was dried-mix at a period of hourly. The drying time was shorter, it was 28 hours or 4 day with moisture content decreasing capacity of 4,1 percent daily or 0,5 hourly for Wilis and 4.25 percent daily or 0,61 percent hourly for Tidar. The best seed germination percentage was obtained on Wilis 98,33 percent with 97,67 percent vigor, followed by Tidar (95,67 percent) with 95,10 percent vigor.
