Brief Project Summary:

This project studies various neonicotinoid seed treatments, seeding rates and cropping system effects on soybean growth, yield, quality and returns. In addition, this research also examines the relationship of these seed treatments to incidences of Soybean Vein Necrosis Virus, perhaps because the treatments may halt the early season aphid population.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, Extension agents
