Soybean production acres have doubled during the past five years and soybean has become a major crop for rotation production systems in North Dakota. One of the major advantages of North Dakota's production agriculture is diversified crop practices. Decisions for selecting rotation crops require specific information on tillage practices for the previous crop. This project will evaluate the benefits of including soybeans in the rotation and the ability to improve soil fertility and reduce tillage practices/production costs. Field production management research combined with economic analysis will be an important tool for practical application.
