G06-1622 Soybean Inoculation: Applying The Facts To Your Fields (Part Two Of A Two-Part Series), Lori J. Abendroth, Roger Wesley Elmore, Richard B. Ferguson
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Why is it that we see soybean yield responses from inoculating with Bradyrhizobia japonicum in some cases but not others?
This publication explains how to distinguish which fields will likely respond to inoculation with B. japonicum from those that will not. Fields are designated as either "new" or "old" based on how often soybean is grown. This designation is one criterion among many in deciding when to inoculate. In general, research trials across multiple locations in Nebraska have shown no yield advantage to re-inoculation.

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Nitrogen gas (N2) comprises nearly 80 percent of total atmospheric gases, yet most organisms are unable to use N2 as a source of nitrogen. Legumes, such as soybean, are able to capture atmospheric nitrogen and utilize it through the process of nitrogen fixation. This NebGuide is part one of a two-part series on soybean inoculation. Here, we will investigate how soybean inoculation occurs and which environmental conditions impact nitrogen fixation.

G00-1395 Soybean Seeding Rates, Roger Wesley Elmore, James E. Specht
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The soybean stand looked horrible late that May. The field had a good seed bed at planting, but rain after planting crusted the soil over the seed furrows. Rain was in the short-term forecast. All other row crops were planted and looked fine, but this field concerned the producer. Should the producer replant? Recommended soybean seeding rates, stand assessment and replanting rates based on Nebraska field research are addressed in this NebGuide.
Ec99-1877 Damping Off, Root Rots, And Vascular Disorders Of Soybean, Loren J. Giesler
Ec99-1877 Damping Off, Root Rots, And Vascular Disorders Of Soybean, Loren J. Giesler
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Soybeans are grown on nearly 4 million acres in Nebraska and are threatened by several diseases, soil-borne fungal diseases being the most common (for growers in the Midwest). Early season damping off and root rots often are followed by premature death, which in many instances is attributed to fungal infections earlier in the growing season causing root and cortical rots and vascular disorders.
This extension circular discusses these diseases, their symptoms and control.

Ec98-278 Grazing Crop Residues, Richard J. Rasby, Roger Selley, Terry Klopfenstein
Ec98-278 Grazing Crop Residues, Richard J. Rasby, Roger Selley, Terry Klopfenstein
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Nebraska has an abundance of crop residue available for late fall and winter grazing. However, several factors prevent the grazing of many fields, including the location of fields in relation to the cattle, the lack of shelter or appropriate fencing and water availability. Despite these limitations, residue grazing is an important resource to many cattle operations, primarily as either a winter feed resource for maintaining the breeding herd or putting weight on cull cows. Calves weaned in the fall can also be wintered on cornstalks if appropriate supplementation is used.

Rp92-217 No. 19 Cost Of Grain Storage, J. William Uhrig
Rp92-217 No. 19 Cost Of Grain Storage, J. William Uhrig
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Grain marketing decisions are among the toughest the farm owner/operator or manager must make. Grain producers store grain to speculate on receiving higher prices, earn a return above storage costs, or to take advantage of government programs. Prices must increase enough to cover the additional costs, or forward contract prices must exceed current prices by more than the cost of storage in order to justify forward pricing. The gain in prices received can come from both changes in price level and changes in basis.
This research publication discusses all the areas of the cost of grain storage.
