Brief Project Summary:

This project will continue the effort to determine the management and environmental limitations to yield, protein and oil accumulation in Minnesota soybeans, so that management and breeding strategies can be developed to overcome the limitations. This effort will include modeling interplant distance affects on soybean branching and pod height; as well as, evaluate interacting environmental factors, such as, temperature, soil moisture, residue type and quantity, to determine whether existing seeding rate recommendations are sufficient to reduce harvest loss due to podding height. A second objective includes evaluating soybeans across geographies and maturity groups to determine the effects...

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.
