Brief Project Summary:

This project aims to implement a systems agronomy approach to identify yield limiting/driving factors in cover crop-minimal tillage systems, to include assessment of pest and weed presence and cost effectiveness of threshold-based treatments, evaluation of CCMT effects on soil properties and soil water characteristics in irrigated soybean production systems, and assessment of N-fixation potential in soils under these systems to improve N management strategies in high-yielding, irrigated soybean production systems.

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.
