Brief Project Summary:

Soybean producers in Indiana frequently apply foliar chemicals to soybean with the goal of increasing yield. These chemicals, which include herbicides, fungicides, insecticides and foliar fertilizers, are often applied simultaneously to minimize trips made across the field. Each of these chemicals can improve soybean yields under certain conditions, however, the impact of co-applications on individual product efficacy and plant health is not well understood.

The overall goal of this project is to understand the effects of chemical co-applications on product efficacy, soybean yield and economic return for soybeans. The researchers will also determine how these types of applications...

Final Project Results

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.
