Brief Project Summary:

The objectives of "Stepping-up Soybean: Production, Profits, and Quality" are to: 1.) Determine which management practices lead to higher soybean quality traits and yield using a new type of experimental design called an "omission trial," 2.) Determine yield-limiting factors through a statewide survey of soil quality, pests, and management practices using multivariate statistics and principle component analysis, and 3.) Inform and train Ohio soybean growers to identify yield-limiting factors on a field-by-field basis through soybean workshops and use of digital media. The omission trial will help Ohio soybean growers determine if Rhizobia inoculation, fungicide, insecticide, manganese foliar...
