Location: Soybean and Nitrogen Fixation Research
Project Number: 6070-21220-069-053-A
Project Type: Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Oct 1, 2019
End Date: Sep 30, 2020
Objective:
Develop soybean cultivars and germplasm with higher seed protein content,
competitive yield and oil content compared to elite cultivars.
Approach:
Harvest and process all materials from 2019 fields and release promising lines, if supported by 2019 data. Continue testing new lines with high yield potential and high protein levels in the USDA Uniform Tests, Regional Protein Diversity Tests, and Missouri advanced and preliminary tests; Continue making new crosses with elite materials and new high protein germplasm.
