Brief Project Summary:

Seeding soybean directly into living rye that was established in the previous fall (‘green-seeding’) is one method of incorporating cover crops into a soybean rotation. The MN Wheat Research & Promotion Council’s On-Farm Research Network (OFRN) would like to investigate the logistical and economical practicality of green-seeding soybean into cereal rye in a wheat-soybean rotation in NW MN and quantify the effects of rye on soil conditions and weed control. The OFRN Research Coordinators will work with growers to establish rye in a replicated strip trial following wheat harvest, and then seed soybean into the living rye the following spring. Data collected throughout the project will include...
