Researchers Seeking Soybean Production Data

By Nicole Heslip

The North Central Soybean Research Program is supporting an online soybean management tool for farmers across the Midwest.

“The more information in, the better tool we will have for you to help with your specific fields,” he says.

The tool will analyze data from farmer fields on crop management, costs, and yields.  Singh says researchers plan to overlay producer data with soil, weather, and satellite imagery which will allow farmers to pin specific fields for crop management recommendations.
