Picking Highest Yielding Week To Plant Soybeans Study

By: Beck’s Hybrids

Beck’s Hybrids PFR program conducts more than 75 different studies across multiple locations (500+ acres) to learn how different management practices and new technologies perform in field environments. Simply put, it is research focused with the farmer in mind. To see the entire study, please download the PFR Book and see page 228.

Purpose:
When should I start planting soybeans? In the spring this is a question that we hear quite often. At each of the five PFR sites, we perform a planting date study to see when that optimum time to plant was each year. The goal of this study is to gather several years of data to help our customers narrow down the optimum planting time for soybeans.
