Iron deficiency chlorosis is a destructive physiological disorder of soybeans, which leads to yellowing, stunted plants and reduced yields. Planting in wider rows, instead of solid-seeding, and using the chelate FeEDDHA also can help, but these control measures cannot replace the use of a resistant variety. These are the soils that most commonly produce yellow soybean plants. Since 2001, Goos has led a research project devoted to field screening of soybean varieties for chlorosis...

Much of the reason for the drop in demand has been the increased use of technology in farming, such as hybrid seeds that can turn out larger yields than in years before. Of the area crops that use cropdusting, corn, rice, soybeans and grain sorghum, many do not have as many planted acres as they did five years ago. But there is hope on the horizon for cropdusters nationwide as some crops, such as corn, are being grown more, which then would drive up the need for cropdusters, Moore said....

The stock market has seen extreme choppiness and an overall bearish tone as the sub-prime fallout and lackluster retail sales have put the bears in control.

Cocoa is pulling back off of recent highs and is the typical...

M80 is a late Group IV soybean variety with excellent harvest standability and tolerance to soybean sudden death syndrome (SDS) DuPont recently announced the commercialization of soybean varieties using a technology that increases yields by as much as 12 percent per acre. Cullers' achievement provides an opportunity to see how genetics and crop management play a role in higher yields and to share information that may help other growers increase their productivity. For more than a decade,...
