Brief Project Summary:

The Purdue Soybean Performance Program has been providing Indiana's soybean growers with quality unbiased data for almost forty years. Participation by the companies is strictly voluntary. In recent years the number of varieties tested has been decreasing due to fewer seed companies and other changes. The smaller testing program has reduced the value of the program. In an attempt to create more useful information on soybean varieties that are being planted in Indiana, this project was created to allow soybean growers to nominate popular soybean varieties to be tested. The yield data will be sent directly to the producers and posted on the Purdue Crop Performance website.
