Dering 1 variety derived from a single cross between Davros (high yielding variety) and MLG 2984 (drought tolerant genotype). Selection method used is pedigree selection. Selection of drought tolerance has been done on the generation F4 - F5 to advanced yield trials. Through this selection is obtained promising line with number DV/2984-330.

Description of Dering 1 is soybean variety with growth type determinant, purple hypocotyl and purple flowers, flowering ± 38 days, harvesting ± 81 days,  number of branching 2-6, number of pods per plant ± 38, yellow seed color, medium seed size (10.7 g/100 seeds), average yield of 1.95 t/ha with potential yield of 2.83 t/ha. This variety is tolerant to drought during the reproductive phase, susceptible to army worm (Spodoptera litura), resistant to pod borer (Etiella zinckenella) and resistance to leaf rust disease (Phakopsora pachyrhizi).
