Modified Oil Soybean Test—North

Author: Kevin O. Scholbrock (Iowa State University)

Abstract

The purpose of this test was to evaluate the experimental modified oil soybean lines adapted to northern Iowa. The 2010 Modified Oil Soybean Test included 1 percent linolenic, low saturates, and mid oleic, and for comparison of agronomic traits, commercially grown varieties released by Iowa State University. Oil from 1 percent linolenic, low saturates, and mid oleic soybean varieties grown in Iowa is used in the frying oil market. This oil is healthier for the consumer.
