Brief Project Summary:

Success in implementing a Michigan soybean yield contest has been minimal in past years. The decision to re-initiate such an effort in 2006 was to build upon the Michigan Soybean 2010 project. With the commitment of Michigan State University's Extension to be supportive of Soybean 2010 and two years of experience, the Board is looking forward to a successful soybean yield contest to augment the Michigan Soybean 2010 Project.

The real goal of the project is to use the three years of yield data to more effectively define management practices leading to higher soybean yields.
