Brief Project Summary:

Limited information exists on the impact of poultry litter application on yield and quality of soybeans. This research seeks to determine the optimum poultry litter application rate for soybean production in North Carolina. It monitors soil nutrient status, soybean yield and soybean quality throughout the growing season. Trials also assess the nitrogen availability and lime equivalence of poultry litter rates compared to inorganic fertilizer.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents
