Brief Project Summary:

The goal of this research is to identify intensive management practices of the double crop wheat and soybean system of Kentucky, which will increase yield and profitability for Kentucky farmers. Specifically, we will investigate soybean planting timings and intensive management inputs that work best for the growing environment in the Kentucky and the Ohio River valley region.

The United Soybean Board funded a national research project to evaluate the effectiveness of various inputs on full-season soybean yields and profitability. The initial project (2009-2011), evaluated seed treatments, inoculants, soil applied fertilizers, foliar fertilizers, foliar fungicides, row spacing, and seeding...
