The project builds the infrastructure where locally led production and management questions are tested. Activities include: conducting high-yield field studies at four sites; developing soybean nutrient budgets as impacted by three planting rates and two planting dates; expanding on-farm studies for variable rate seeding and varieties, cover crops, high yield protocols, and farmer-identified treatments; training for on-farm research, sponsoring the Soy100 and summer field tour; using genetic markers to better define high yield treatment impact on gene expression at early growth stages; developing an on-farm research database; reviewing the soybean best management practices manual; and organizing an advisory board meeting to identify priorities and assess project successes.Key Benefactors: farmers, agronomists, extension specialists
