Brief Project Summary:

This project continues the development of soybean varieties and germplasm adapted to Minnesota with improved protein and oil content, acceptable levels of other quality characteristics, competitive yield and resistance to production hazards (rot and stem diseases, nematodes, iron chlorosis, aphids, rust, lodging, drought, etc.). It continues testing public and private soybean varieties available or intended for sale to soybean producers in Minnesota and report results of yield, protein, oil, maturity and hazard reactions. This project is expanding the development of special purpose soybean varieties for food and other uses adapted to Minnesota. And, it will analyze advanced and preliminary...
