This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planting soybean early (late April through early May) is recommended to achieve high grain yields. However, unfavorable conditions can limit farmers’ ability to plant during the recommended period, and thus, an increase in the seeding rate may be necessary. Also, weather conditions can affect seed quality, and choosing an adequate planting date can mitigate the impacts of unfavorable weather on the seed. Thus, the objectives of this study were to (1) measure the effect of planting date and seeding rate on stand loss over the growing season, (2) measure the effect of soybean seeding rate and planting date on grain yield, (3) identify the agronomic optimum soybean seeding rate (AOSR) and the partial economic return for the lowest and highest soybean price, and (4) measure the effect of soybean planting date and seeding rate on harvested seed mass, seed germination, and seedling vigor. For these objectives, a field study was conducted for two growing seasons at two locations in Ohio: Western (WARS) and Northwest (NWARS) Agricultural Research Stations. The experimental design used was a split-plot randomized complete block with four replications. The main plot factor was four planting dates ranging from 25 April through 10 July, and the split-plot factor was five seeding rates ranging from 123,500 to 618,000 seeds ha-1. At WARS-2020, planting soybeans in April through early June had a similar grain yield (5,090-5,285 kg ha-1), while there was a reduction in grain yield when soybean was planted in late June (4,216 kg ha-1). In contrast, in WARS-2021, planting dates did not statically influence grain yield. At NWARS-2020, a small amount of rainfall during the pod-setting growth stages (R3-R4 stages) impacted and reduced the grain yield for soybeans planted in April (3,113 kg ha-1) and May (2,909 kg ha-1) when compared to soybean planted on early-June (3,595 kg ha-1). The AOSR changed among site-years. For soybean grown under normal weather conditions, the AOSR needed to be increased as planting was delayed to achieve the highest grain yield. The planting date factor also impacted soybean seed quality. The germination rate in all site-years was above 94%; however, soybean planted in early June had the lowest seedling vigor results (64 to 81%) compared to other planting dates (80 to 89%) in both locations. These findings can help growers improve grain yield, increase economic return, and produce high-quality seeds.

Book Evaluation of Agronomic Performance and Weed Control in Soybean Grown with Different Row Configurations  Planting Dates  and Soil Textures

Download or read book Evaluation of Agronomic Performance and Weed Control in Soybean Grown with Different Row Configurations Planting Dates and Soil Textures written by Franklin Read Kelly and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planting date, seeding rate, soil texture, and row configuration are important factors in soybean production. Each of these factors can impact overall production and yield of soybean immensely. Growers can have difficulty making decisions about how to best manage their production systems with these factors in mind. Therefore, research was conducted from 2019 to 2021 at the Delta Research and Extension Center in Stoneville, MS, to evaluate the agronomic performance, yield components, and weed control of soybean planted with different planting dates, row configurations, soil textures and/or seeding rates. Common row configurations utilized in Mississippi soybean production were compared to a triple-row configuration on raised beds. First planting dates occurred from late-April to early-May and second planting dates followed three weeks later. Each row configuration was planted at 320,000 seed ha-1 for agronomic studies. Seeding Rate Study was initiated where triple-row configuration plots were planted at 320,000, 445,000, and 553,000 seed ha-1. Total dry matter (TDM) was determined by removing a m-2 in each plot at soybean growth stage R6.5 and allowing samples to dry down and weigh them. Harvest index was determined by collecting seed from TDM samples and weighing them. Pod node-1, seed number, and node plant-1 were determined by collecting five random plants from each plot and counting the total number of pods, seed, and nodes. Soybean planted on silt loam at the first planting produced lower seed weight, seed number, and harvest index than soybean on clay soil at either planting date. Two row configurations, single- and triple-row, were planted on raised beds for weed control studies. Programs included PRE only, EPOST, LPOST, PRE fb EPOST, PRE fb LPOST, and PRE fb EPOST fb LPOST. Herbicide timings included 7, 14, 21, and 28 DA-crop emergence and each timing was followed by a sequential application 14 d after the initial application. Triple-row configuration had lower plant densities and produced lower yield than single- and twin-row configurations. Triple-row configuration soybean planted on clay soil and at 445,000 and 553,000 seed ha-1 produced greater yield than any other seeding rate or soil texture.

Book Identifying Optimal Management Decisions Based on Soybean Planting Date

Download or read book Identifying Optimal Management Decisions Based on Soybean Planting Date written by Thomas Bernard Siler and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of early-season soybean [Glycine Max (L.) Merr.] planting has been increasing in the northern US. However, a wide range of planting dates (PDs) are still implemented due to poor soil conditions, inclement weather, equipment restrictions, crop rotation, and operation size. Information regarding how soybean management decisions should be adjusted based on PD is lacking in Michigan and other northern US regions. This research was conducted to identify how optimal soybean seeding rate (SR), seed treatment (ST) use, and variety maturity group (MG) selection is determined by PD. Field experiments were conducted at two locations in Michigan during the 2018 and 2019 growing season. In the first experiment, soybean was planted at five SRs, between 123,553 and 518,921 seeds ha−1, with or without a ST, on four PDs (late-April to late-June). In the second experiment, six soybean MGs, between 1.0 and 3.5, were planted on four PDs (late-April to late-June). The use of a ST did not improve yield or net returns in this study. When soybean was planted before mid-May, seed yield and net returns were maximized by planting a late MG (≥ 3.0) at a SR between 187,660 and 201,451 seeds ha−1. The optimal SR between the mid-May and early-June PDs was between 220,301 and 265,305 seeds ha−1 and MG selection had less influence on seed yield compared to earlier PDs. When planting was delayed to late-June, using an early MG (≤ 2.5) resulted in the optimal yield and the optimal SR was > 330,000. Results from this study show that soybean yield, quality, and net returns can be improved by adjusting management practices based on PD.

Book Comparison of Variable Rate Prescriptions and Optimum Seeding Rate in Soybean  Glycine Max  L   Merr  and the Impact of Soybean Seeding Rate on Combine Fuel Use and Grain Loss at Harvest

Download or read book Comparison of Variable Rate Prescriptions and Optimum Seeding Rate in Soybean Glycine Max L Merr and the Impact of Soybean Seeding Rate on Combine Fuel Use and Grain Loss at Harvest written by William Patrick Hamman and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] inputs are continually increasing, and with market values decreasing, producers are forced to find ways to maintain profitability. To address these challenges, soybean producers are interested in reducing seeding rates. However, due to within field variability, it may not be possible to lower seeding rates throughout an entire field uniformly and still achieve the same soybean yield. Variable rate seeding (VRS) of soybean allows producers to adjust seeding rates according to the variability in their fields. However, little is known regarding the accuracy of farmers’ VRS prescriptions. The objectives of this research were to 1) determine the agronomic optimum seeding rate (AOSR) and the economic optimum seeding rate (EOSR) in predetermined management zones, 2) compare the calculated AOSR and EOSR to each producer’s VRS prescription, 3) determine the impact of final plant stand on yield within management zones, 4) identify how soybean plant architecture maintains yield across multiple seeding rates, and 5) determine how plant population impacts harvest, especially combine fuel use and harvest grain loss. In 2017 and 2018, eight on-farm trials were conducted across Ohio. The trials consisted of three uniform seeding rates of 247,000, 346,000, 445,000 seeds ha-1, and a variable rate strip determined by the producers ranging from 198,000 to 445,000 seeds ha-1. The AOSR (yield maximizing) and EOSR (profit maximizing) were calculated from regression analyses for each management zone and field. Agronomic and economic optimum seeding rates ranged from 247,000 to iii 445,000 seeds ha-1 depending on the site-year. Final plant stands varied across site- years, but the calculated agronomic optimum final stand (AOFS) were similar to the recommended AOFS of 247,000 to 297,000 plants ha-1. At lower final stands, soybean yield was maintained by the plants’ ability to grow lateral branches that produced pods. In 2017 and 2018, two management zones were seeded at the calculated AOSR and one zone was seeded at the EOSR, indicating that the assigned seeding rates were not effective for these management zones. Combine fuel use and grain loss at harvest were also analyzed using regression analysis. Soybean grain yield had the largest impact on combine fuel use, increasing as grain yield increased. Plant moisture, grain moisture, branching, and stem hardness did not impact combine fuel use. When final plant populations were reduced, the pods that were closer to the ground were difficult to harvest, which led to increased harvest loss in soybean populations
