Brief Project Summary:

Which cover crops fit each system well? Do in-season applications of biologicals increase soybean yield or quality? What seeding rate optimizes yield? How much do specific soybean varieties yield under typical management and environmental conditions? Virginia farmers ask these questions and many others. On-farm research from this project lays the foundation for finding answers in their fields. These on-farm replicated trials in real-world conditions evaluate soybean production strategies.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents

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.
