Brief Project Summary:

Soybean producers make important production and economic decisions regarding crop rotation based upon information supplied by Extension personnel, and seed companies, etc. Often the information is limited, inconsistent and not applicable to the geographic area that is being considered by the producer or the crop advisor in the Mid-South. Unfortunately, the significance of crop rotation of soybean with feed grains cultivated in southern latitudes impact upon overall soybean production is not well understood. This research will attempt to address this issue and provide Mid-South producers information about crop rotations influence on sustainable soybean production generated at their latitudes...

Information And Results
Project Deliverables

Extension articles and bulletins for each state, presentation of poster at ASA-CSSA meetings.
1. Build an economic database to describe the risk associated with each soybean rotation system commonly used in the Mid-South
2. Define the influence of feed grain residue management on succeeding soybean yield and pest pressures.

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.
