Brief Project Summary:

Irrigation and water management are critical to obtaining high soybean yields. This project will develop production management information that can be used to apply up to 25% less irrigation water. Efforts intend to determine optimum physiological period for initiating irrigation, critical physiological period for terminating irrigation and growth stage(s) when deficit irrigation adversely affects yield and profitability.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents
