Brief Project Summary:

Identification of those practices that improve soil health and conserve and protect water resources is critical to improving the sustainability of U.S. soybean production and will assist in defining metrics for monitoring soybean production system sustainability. Over the past decade acreage of feed grains (corn, grain sorghum, wheat) have increased in the Mid-South. Soybean producers in this region have limited information on the effects of incorporating feed grains into their rotations. This project will identify optimal rotational partners for soybean production under Mid-South management and environmental conditions to maximize producer profitability and sustainability.

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.
