This project will combine two ongoing high yield management projects, one of which was designed to look at planting date x row spacing x seeding rate over six Illinois sites, and the other to look at the effect of novel inputs - inoculants, growth regulators, micronutrients, and various products - on soybean yield.

Results of these studies will be used to identify those treatments and strategies that produced responses in separate trials. Combining these treatments will allow us to see if these factors interact to produce consistent yield increases. The objective is to see if there are combinations of management practices and novel inputs that produce consistent yield increases. Results...
