Top Things for Farmers to Know About Checkoff Dollars Invested in Research

The North Carolina Soybean Producers Research Committee works really hard to fund projects that are going to provide North Carolina growers with the data they need to make decisions on their farms and to improve their productivity and profitability. The committee sees the checkoff as an investment and funds projects they think have the greatest chance of the largest ROI.

  • Holistic Management of Meloidogyne enterolobii (Guava Root-knot Nematode) in North Carolina Soybeans
  • Producing the Data and Developing the Tool Needed to Optimize Soybean Production in North Carolina
  • Management Impact on Seed Quality in Earlier Maturing Soybeans
  • Will the Increased Planting of Indeterminate Soybean Varieties Extend the Time Corn Earworm Can Infest Soybeans?
Top Areas of Research Critical to the Future of North Carolina's Soybean Production
  • Relatively Low-Cost Ways to Push Soybean Yields
  • Capturing More of the Value of Soybeans for the State’s Growers
  • Making Sure Growers Have Access to Information About New Technology and Data Management
Recent Innovative Research Projects
  • Maximizing Soybean Yield through Maturity Group, Population and Planting Date
  • Recalibration of Phosphorous and Potassium Recommendations for High-Yielding Soybeans in North Carolina Evaluating UAV Use for Within Season Management Decisions in NC Soybeans

One of Our Biggest Success Stories as a Result of Research

One of the biggest successes of our research program recently is helping answer questions growers have about optimizing maturity groups and planting dates. Helping growers make informed decisions has increased yields and invigorated interest in pushing the limits of soybean production across the state.
