Preliminary Maturity Group Ii Soybean Variety Trials, Colleen C. Steele, Larry J. Grabau Jan 1996

Preliminary Maturity Group Ii Soybean Variety Trials, Colleen C. Steele, Larry J. Grabau

Agronomy Notes

On-farm research with early maturing soybean varieties in Kentucky in both 1993 and 1994 has indicated that Maturity Group (MG) II varieties yield competitively with our traditional MG IV varieties. In those tests, four MG II varieties were compared with a single, high yielding MG IV variety (Asgrow A4715) over a range of planting dates on a total of 27 farms across both years. Asgrow A4715 averaged 43 bu/A, while the best MG II variety (Jack) averaged 39 bu/A. Such on-farm strip tests are valuable for comparing varieties under true production conditions. However, strip tests can effectively compare only a …


Ec96-802 Soybean Basis Patterns, Lynn H. Lutgen Jan 1996

Ec96-802 Soybean Basis Patterns, Lynn H. Lutgen

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The following publication contains soybean basis patterns for several towns in Western Nebraska. The basic price information was collected through surveys, newspaper, electronic media, etc. The listing includes towns that are representative of different geographic locations in Western Nebraska. The amount of data varies among locations. This publication will be updated each year by adding a year's data to each location which will allow the user to observe the changes in the basis patterns over time.

Ec96-802 Revised 1997 Soybean Basis Patterns From Selected Sites In Nebraska

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Extension Circular 96-802-B discusses the soybean basis patterns from selected sites in Nebraska.


Early Maturing Varieties And Soybean Cyst Nematodes: Will This "Marriage" Work?, Colleen C. Steele, Larry J. Grabau Jan 1996

Early Maturing Varieties And Soybean Cyst Nematodes: Will This "Marriage" Work?, Colleen C. Steele, Larry J. Grabau

Agronomy Notes

Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is widely distributed in Kentucky's soybean growing areas. The use of SCN-resistant varieties has long been a recommended production practice for infested fields. However, continuous use of such varieties can result in a shift to a race of SCN which is able to vigorously attack previously resistant varieties. For his reason, many states have long recommended that producers periodically grow a crop of SCN-susceptible soybeans within a crop rotation when SCN populations are too low to cause yield reductions. In Kentucky, the UK Plant Pathology Department recommends a four year rotation in SCN-infested fields [PPA3; "Wanted: …
