Methodology

Channel 2424RXF soybeans were planted on May 3, 2023, in 10-inch rows at 140,000 seeds/ac in McCook County. Source SC was applied to soybeans on July 20, 2023, at a rate of 1.24 fl oz per acre. The contents of this product are listed in the documents below the yield maps. The product was applied in 120 ft. wide strips with 4 replications. The soybeans were harvested on September 28, 2023, and September 30, 2023.

Results

Soybeans treated with Source SC yielded 2.0 bu/ac lower than soybeans that did not receive the product. This was a larger difference than 1.3 bu/ac and is therefore significantly different at the 90% confidence level (Table 1). To validate these results, additional testing of these products would be beneficial, as other trials have seen different results.
