Brief Project Summary:

Many soybean varieties are marketed to Maryland growers. An agronomic and economic evaluation of prominent varieties recommended by local seed dealers with Maryland can be useful to farmers. The goal of this project is to provide objective performance data on yield, disease resistance, quality, and improve locally available germplasm. Trials on different soybean varieties are conducted at multiple research locations, providing objective performance data under Maryland’s cropping systems and environments.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, Extension agents

Final Project Results

Update:
A variety of soybean varieties are marketed to Maryland growers. An agronomic and economic evaluation of prominent varieties recommended by local seed dealers with Maryland can be useful to farmers. The goal of this project is to provide objective performance data on yield, disease resistance, quality, and improve locally available germplasm. In 2017, trials on different soybean varieties will be conducted at multiple research locations.
