Very limited information is available regarding soybean maturity groups response to insecticide-seed treatments and planting dates. The objective of this project is to evaluate the response of selected varieties from selected soybean maturity groups to insecticide-fungicide seed treatments (Apron, Cruiser plus Apron) with three, four-week planning intervals from mid-March to mid-May at three locations. The studies will be scouted and rated for early season bean leaf beetle and thrips damage; and scouted and sprayed for soybean rust and stinkbugs during the growing seed. Maturity dates, green stem ratings at maturity, plant height at maturity and yield will be recorded. Returns above seed...
The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
