Raised Seedbeds for Soybean in Twin Rows Increase Yields over Flat Seedbeds

H. A. Bruns and L. D. Young

July 2012

Research

The objectives of this research were to: document and support or refute the purported claims of improved yields of irrigated soybean grown in twin-rows and raised seedbeds compared to flat seedbeds using the Early Soybean Production System (ESPS) that has been widely adopted in the Mid South USA; document any differences in yield associated with the two seedbed preparations in combination with different seeding rates; and how the combinations of seedbed preparation and seeding rate may affect yield components.
