Dec 2024

What stress will the 2025 growing season bring for soybeans? Soybeans exhibit natural resilience to some stress from conditions like flooding, drought, extreme heat or specific pest pressure. Researchers are exploring the potential to enhance that stress tolerance. Both genetics and agronomics contribute to how soybeans manage stress, which in turn can improve yield and quality. The soy checkoff invests a variety of research, tools and resources that equip farmers to better manage stress in soybean fields.
