Soybean Yield with Dr. Cheryl Reese
from The Soybean Pod · host SD Soybean
The South Dakota Soybean Yield Contest is much more than a friendly competition for yield bragging rights. The contestants are, after all, South Dakotans, so there’s not much outward bragging even for those with the best yields. The real value of the annual contest is in the data collected each year that, with expert analysis, helps improve yields in following years, according to Cheryl Reese, a senior lecturer at South Dakota State University who teaches soybean production. In this edition of The Soybean Pod, we’ll hear from Ms. Reese what agronomic traits most contribute to improvements in yield.
