“Seeding rates above the [agronomic optimum seeding rate] resulted in no benefit under favorable conditions, since higher plant populations mostly benefit from environments exposed to weather events that reduce population (e.g., hail).” From the @ASA_CSSA_SSSA article "Seeding rate effects on soybean seed yield components and economic return" doi.org/10.1002/agj2.70534 by Fernando M. Marcos, Caio L. dos Santos, Natan A. Seraglio, and Mark A. Licht @badgerbean @PurdueSoybean @SoybeanScience1 @ISUExtension #soybean #USSoy
