Brief Project Summary:

It is crucial to increase water productivity, which is soybean seed yield produced per unit of seasonal water supply, to sustain soybean acreage and yields in Nebraska. The goal of this project is to develop an easy-to use framework that helps improve water use in Nebraska soybean production while maintaining, or increasing current irrigated or rain-fed soybean yields.
