Abstract: In present investigation an account of flowering phenology and pollen production in Glycine max were studied. It is annual erect or sub erect or climbing herb. It is commonly known as "Soyabean". The observations on G. max were carried out during the month of August to September in year. The first flower was opened on 2nd August and flowering lasts toward 20th of September. Pollen production per flower was found to be 2112.55 + 212.64, 2175.92 + 184.40 and 2214.71 + 384.42 for three study sites respectively. Observations on pollen viability estimation were found to be 86.22, 81.27 and 86.43 percent respectively for three study sites. Pollen: ovule ratio was recorded as 420.25, 435.39 and 460.94. The stigma becomes receptive during 08.30 am to 09.30 am.
