Brief Project Summary:

The potential impacts of the various residue management techniques in wheat-soybean double system on soil quality (using the various indicators) and soybean yield will impact producers making production decisions. Information gathered from this study will help producers maintain a balance between maximizing output and maintaining environmental quality. The research will evaluate five post-harvest residue management techniques and key soil quality indicators.

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.
