Brief Project Summary:

The goal of 100 bu/A soybean yield has been questioned from an economic standpoint, but it would be valuable to know if certain mechanisms or practices consistently improve soybean yield. We are not proposing to break 100 bu/A soybean yield with this proposal, but rather to provide a better understanding of new or novel management practices that have the potential to substantially increase soybean yield. If we can identify specific practices that significantly increase yield in this trial, then we will be better informed of treatment combinations that have the potential to break the yield barrier and proceed accordingly. The specific objectives of this proposal are to: 1) determine if in-row...

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.
