Brief Project Summary:

This project primarily deals with support of the UGA extension education program for soybeans. The extension program consists of grower meetings that update producers on developments with soybean production practices and economics, printing of production guides and maintenance of the Soybean Web page. In addition, there is funding to support an applied research program focused on variety evaluations, various production practices, and support of the rust monitoring and research program through partial support of a post-doc to monitor and collect data from sentinel plots.
