Brief Project Summary:

Starting in 2012, a regional Midsouth Soybean Board (MSSB) project was funded by the United Soybean Board and will involve four state checkoff boards. The objective of this three-year planned project is to provide data that can be used to predict the effects of latitude and planting date on the growth and development of a uniform set of varieties in Maturity groups II, IV, V and VI that are planted from early March through mid-June at eight Midsouth locations ranging from 30.6 to 36.4 degrees latitude. Additional components of this research involves making specific measurements of pest incidence and associated control costs at each location since it is expected that latitude will affect...

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.
