Abstract

Planting date and variety selection are two very inexpensive management practices farmers can utilize to increase their profitability. Yet very little research is conducted on this topic. To address these questions, the North Central Soybean Research Program has initiated a multi-state project. The purposes of this project are 1) what are the risks vs. benefits of planting soybean in the same planting window as corn, and 2) under early planting, will a farmer realize higher yield and profit in selecting slightly later relative maturities.
