Brief Project Summary:

Texas A&M AgriLife Research Crop Testing Program conducts soybean variety trials. This project supports those trials.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents

Information And Results
Project Deliverables

Yield and other agronomic information including lodging, shattering, moisture and test weight will be measured at each location and disseminated to growers through print and electronic formats and dozens of AgriLife Extension education events. Results will be posted at www.varietytesting.tamu.edu.

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.
