Georgia Soybeans
Top Things for Farmers to Know About Checkoff Dollars Invested in Research
The Georgia Soybean Commodity Commission dedicates more than 70% of instate checkoff funds to research and Extension programs. Our researchers and Extension personnel do an outstanding job investing in practical projects that support Georgia soybean production.
- Soybean Rust Monitoring
- Cultivar Development
- On-farm Applied Agronomic Research
- Benefits of Soybean in Crop Rotation
- Soybean Profitability & Sustainability
- Best Management Practices
- Development of High-Yielding Cultivars with Enhanced Herbicide Tolerance
- Soybean Smart Irrigation App
- Expansion of Georgia Weather Network
- Identifying Varieties for Dryland & Ultra-Late Production
One of Our Biggest Success Stories as a Result of Research
Asian soybean remains a limiting factor for Georgia soybeans. The Soybean Rust and Fungal Disease Sentinel Plot Monitoring Program consistently helps Georgia soybean farmers protect crop yields by 25 bu/A or more and save production with timely fungicide applications to control soybean rust only when needed.
