Brief Project Summary:

Schillinger Genetics has been working on developing varieties that are especially suited to Delaware, Delmarva and the greater mid-Atlantic. Using their new molecular lab, they can expedite the breeding process.

The University of Delaware does not have a soybean breeding program. Schillinger's willingness to develop varieties that are specifically bred for this area and its markets ensure that Delaware soybean growers can continue to meet market needs into the future.
