  3. Pollinator Ratings in Soybean Varieties

    Author(s): Laura Lindsey , Author(s): Chia Lin , Author(s): Reed Johnson

    Soybean plants are self-pollinating and do not require insects for pollination. However, soybean fields can provide important floral resources for pollinators, and there is some evidence of pollination by bees improving soybean yield.

  6. To Spray or Not to Spray…Foliar Products at R3

    Author(s): Laura Lindsey , Author(s): Andy Michel , Author(s): Horacio Lopez-Nicora

    When should I spray a foliar fungicide?
    First, consider the disease triangle. For a disease to develop, there must be: 1) a susceptible host (Is your soybean variety resistant or susceptible?), 2) a virulent pathogen (Is there a history of a certain disease in your field? Do you see any visual symptoms of disease?), and 3) conducive environmental conditions. Most foliar diseases, such as brown leaf spot and frogeye leaf spot, are favored by wet conditions.

    Double Crop Soybean Management Considerations for 2022

    Author(s): Laura Lindsey

    Wheat harvest is just around the corner, and it’s time to consider double-crop soybean production management. For double-crop soybean to be successful, you need adequate time and moisture for the production of the soybean crop. In southern Ohio, double-crop soybean after wheat harvest is common. In central and northern Ohio, double-crop soybean after winter wheat depends on the wheat harvest date and soybean prices. With high soybean prices, we anticipate interest in double-crop soybean production in central and northern Ohio this year.

  9. Soybean Planting Progress, Emergence, and Misconceptions

    Author(s): Laura Lindsey

    Recent wet weather across the state has slowed soybean planting progress, but should be picking up with warmer and dryer weather. As of the last week of April, 2% of the soybean acres in Ohio were planted. Last year at the same time, 17% of soybean acres were planted. However, 2018 through 2020, planting progress was similar at 1-2%.
