The 2010 University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture Soybean Updates are ready!
This annual publication details research data for the 2010 Soybean Performance Early Planted and Full Season and Double Crop Roundup Ready soybean variety screening trials. Useful data in the update includes yields, disease ratings, agronomic characteristics, herbicide tolerance, and more. These publications provide growers with current varietal performance and characteristic data to aid in their variety selections.
Varieties included in the update were tested in both the Division's 2009 and 2010 variety testing program. Since performance may vary from year to year, and two-year yield averages are better predictors of performance than data from a single year. Superior performance across several locations suggests that a variety has wide adaptability, thus multiyear and multi-location yields are particularly useful for making variety selection decisions.
The updates are available both online and in print format.
To access the updates online go to:
http://www.aragriculture.org/crops/soybeans/varietyyields/default.htm#Soybean Updates
Or, from the main Cooperative Extension Service homepage, click on "Agriculture", then "Soybean", then "Soybean Updates" from the list of bulleted items on the Soybean home page. Updates are separated into Early Season Roundup Ready, Full Season Roundup Ready and Full Season Non Roundup Ready (Conventional & LibertyLink). Updates from 2009 and 2008 are available for reference from this site as well.
Also, SOYVA 2011 is now available at http://soyva.uaex.edu/.
This program, designed by the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, is designed to assist clientele with soybean variety selection. Variety selection should consider yield potential and avoidance of environmental, cultural and disease problems.
Printed copies of the Early Season and Full Season and Double-Crop Roundup Ready Soybean Performance Results were shipped to County Extension Offices in soybean-growing counties on January 27. Contact your local County Extension Office for a copy or more information. Or, contact Jeremy Ross, soybean agronomist for the Division.
