Methodology

Hefty H28X8 soybeans were planted with and without QuickRoots® on May 7, 2018 at 150,000 seeds/acre in 7.5 inch rows.  QuickRoots® was applied to the seed in the planter at 4 grams QuickRoots®/140,000 seeds.

Results

In this trial, soybeans planted with QuickRoots® had a yield increase of 1.01 bu/ac.  However, since there was only one replication, we could not determine if this yield increase was significant.  Further research is required to determine the effects of QuickRoots® on soybean yield.
