Brief Project Summary:

With the explosion in the number of seed treatments available it is essential for growers to have baseline data to determine the relative benefit of the increased seed cost, particularly given the many options available. We propose to look at the economics of soybean seed treatment to provide Michigan soybean producers with data to support strategic decision making when considering seed treatments and input costs.
