Controlling the Controllables: Pre-Planting Decisions That Drive Soybean Yield
IL Soy Envoy Scott Krone shares research backed data on how planting date, genetics and maturity group selection can have a greater impact on soybean yield than stand density alone.
Managing SCN for the Long Haul: Lessons from a 12-Year Minnesota Study
A 12-year Minnesota study shows how quickly SCN can build, adapt and reduce yield potential in continuous soybean fields, even when resistant varieties are used.
Studying Soybean Yield with Applied Fertilizer After a Cover Crop
After three years, soybean yield dipped slightly after a cover crop, and added fertilizer improved yield in only one of three locations.
