Brief Project Summary:

The objectives of this project are to evaluate agronomic performance data of public and private varieties in full-season and double-cropped plantings. The project involves evaluating and developing soybean varieties with soybean cyst nematode and pest resistance, and soybean lines with low linolenic acid and low phytic acid levels. The project provides the soybean growers with the latest agronomic performance information on publicly and privately developed soybean varieties.
