The results of an Iowa State University field experiment conducted in 2019 with the soybean cyst nematode (SCN) showed up to a $200 per acre yield difference between different varieties.

One of the newest frontiers for scientific discovery, soil is offering new insights into the benefits of no-till farm management. A recent study by South Dakota State University, measuring 8 different enzymes, bacteria, fungi, organic carbon and nitrogen, found significant improvements in no-till fields compared to conventionally tilled fields.

A research economist at Texas A&M University and a soil scientist with the Soil Health Institute researched why Texas producers choose to, or not to, adopt soil conservation and soil health measures and discuss what they found.

Farmers can't predict their annual corn harvest with certainty, but with the help of new research from Michigan State University, they can now pinpoint specific parts of their fields that consistently produce either good or bad yields, allowing for smarter fertilizer application.

In case you missed them, here are the items that have garnered the most interest from farmers in the month of December.

If wet spring planting conditions have you considering earlier maturing corn hybrids, check out these results from recent Ohio State University research.

In this episode of the No-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by Yetter Mfg., we’re sharing a recent talk that soil microbiologist Dr. Kris Nichols gave at the Clemson Soil Health Conference, where she delved into the biology of soil and how producers can maximize their soil biological systems.
