In 2007, a southwestern Missouri farmer Kip Cullers set the record soybean yield with a yield of 154.7 bu/acre. His success has been attributed to a combination of genetics, the use of large amounts of irrigation water to eliminate drought stress and to control canopy temperatures during pod set and pod fill, applications of foliar fungicides, the use of various seed treatments, and to the application of nutrients, including nitrogen, micronutrients, and growth regulating products. Because he manages his "contest" field uniformly, there can be no estimation of the effect of individual inputs on soybean yield. This study is designed to test whether or not such irrigation and nutrient treatments...
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.
