Management Zones and Variable Rate Soybean Seeding

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefit of variable rate seeding soybeans on typical soil systems in northern Ohio.

Objectives:

  1. assess variably applied soybean seed population rates versus traditional seeding rates for varying field conditions.
  2. Use spatial data characteristics from remote sensing and yield data for determining seeding rate application map.
  3. Measure effectiveness of variable rate equipment application map versus "as applied" mapping.

Research Designs - 1) Replicated plot design and 2) whole field spatial analysis
