Methodology

This experiment was conducted at Brown county. Soybean was planted in 30 in. rows in strips on June 4, 2020. This experiment consists of comparison between 90K Vs 115K seeding rates. This experiment consist of two replication for each treatment.

Results

On average, lower seeding rate resulted in decrease in yield by 0.01 bu/ac (Table 1). More research at multiple sites and replication are required to better explain the contrast between two different seeding rates.
