As the earth revolves around the sun, length of photoperiod changes each day.Length of photoperiod is related to latitude.
23.5°Earth is tilted on its axis

Photoperiod/dark period sensed by a chemical in the leaves. So, leaves are necessary to induce flowering
Inducing signal is from leaf to bud at the nodes
Temperature interacts with photoperiod (dark period) to regulate soybean flowering and maturity

Logic for Selection of Maturity Group
Soybean yield is product of number of days of seed filling and the rate at which seeds fill
Vegetative growth before and after flowering begins builds photosynthesis factory; more leaves greater rate of seed fill
Later maturing varieties will produce more leaves before flowering starts
Later maturing varieties will possess greater number of days for seed-filling
Later maturing varieties may have faster rate of fill for more days, so may yield more

Varieties differ for yield potential, but that yield difference is not related to maturity group (if not widely unadapted).
Opens up additional variety choices.
In some regions, selecting varieties with a range of maturities may add yield stability.

Double Cropping and Other Late Planted Situations
Shorter growing season, especially in north range of where double cropping is feasible
Plants induced to flower almost immediately after emergence

Use “normal” maturity for region
If planting delayed to ultra late, maybe earlier ½
Increase seeding rate
