Abstract The objective of this work was to decompose the variations of the genotype × environment interaction through fixed multivariate models, as well as to understand the genetic variations through mixed models, for the estimation and prediction of the genetic value of soybean (Glycine max) genotypes in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Tests were carried out during the 2016/2017, 2017/2018, and 2018/2019 crop seasons in different municipalities in six regions of the state, using the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and genotype main effects + genotype-by-environment interaction (GGE) models. The genotypes were also evaluated using an index that allows weighting between mean performance and stability (WAASBY) and by the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) and the best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) models. The used experimental design was randomized complete blocks (18 environments x 12 genotypes), with three replicates. The best performing genotypes in favorable environments are: 'BMX Valente RR', 'BMX Alvo RR', 'NS 5959 IPRO', 'DM 5958RSF IPRO', and 'BMX Ativa RR'. The favorable environments are the 2017/2018 season in the municipality of Bagé and the 2016/2017 season in the municipalities of São Luiz Gonzaga and Cachoeira do Sul, where higher grain yields were obtained. The genotypes that show excellent performance in unfavorable environments are cultivars BMX Ativa RR, DM 5958RSF IPRO, NS 5959 IPRO, and TMG 7262 RR. The 2016/2017 season is considered unfavorable in the municipalities of São Luiz Gonzaga and Cachoeira do Sul. The AMMI, GGE, and WAASBY or BLUP models for genotype selection must be used simultaneously.
