Top Things for Farmers to Know About Checkoff Dollars Invested in Research
Research information helps soybean growers maximize productivity and profitability through smart production choices and efficient use of resources. Another initiative is to provide research-based educational opportunities to producers that are timely, unbiased and aid in farm management decision making.
- Soybean Breeding and Genetics for Improved Yield, Immune Systems, and Seed Protein
- Enhancing Soybean Germplasm Through Biotechnology
- Extension Educational Outreach Efforts
- Optimize Annual On-Farm Yield Improvements from 0.5 to 1.0 Bushels/Acre a Year
- Stop the Decline in Seed Protein that Accompanies the Rise in Soybean Yield
- Continue the Focus on Genetic, Chemical and Organic Control of Insects, Diseases and Weeds
- Improving Soybean Germplasm for Aquaculture Feed
- Soybean Gall Midge Management
- Nitrogen Management for Irrigated Soybeans in Western Nebraska
- Soybean Stem Borer – Search for Genetic Resistance
One of Our Biggest Success Stories as a Result of Research
Nebraska’s soybean breeding program is well-established and extensive. Over the last decade more than $7.5 million has been invested in soybean breeding and genetics from the state’s checkoff funding alone. Seed scientists are devoting their time and knowledge to increase soybean varieties and improve their immunity and tolerance to chemicals, drought, pests and more.
