Brief Project Summary:

The goal of this project is to improve recommendations for soil potassium (K) fertilization that will maximize yield in high-yield environments and improve soybean health and resistance to foliar diseases. The researchers will determine soil K level necessary for high-yielding environments; determine optimum soil K level to minimize foliar disease occurrence and dependence on late-season foliar fungicide applications.

Information And Results
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.
