Agronomy Notes

Production of early maturing soybean varieties has grown in popularity across the southeastern US in recent years. Many growers in Mississippi, Arkansas, and Texas have seen this system as a way to avoid late season drought. However, several Kentucky growers have had good success with the use of Maturity Group (MG) II soybeans in the recent seasons which had generally good rainfall patterns. Some growers are glad to get competitive yields from MGII soybean while gaining the opportunity to harvest some of their soybean acreage before corn is ready to harvest.
