Brief Project Summary:

This project enhances soybean grower profitability by helping growers make informed decisions regarding the response of soybean canopy development, nodulation, grain quality and yield to starter fertilizer based on planting date. Research aims to evaluate the effect of planting date and starter fertilizer options of nitrogen only, phosphorus only, and nitrogen plus phosphorus on soybean canopy development, nodulation, grain quality and yield in no-tillage systems in a field study as well as in a greenhouse study. Additional work determines the economic return of each planting date and starter fertilizer treatment.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents
