The Louisiana State University AgCenter works with industry experts and soybean growers across the state to test plots, harvesting data for varieties on abiotic and biotic stress resistance, yield, and data necessary to make recommendations.
The soybean variety trials are evaluated in multiple environments across Louisiana. David Moseley, soybean specialist at the Louisiana State University Dean Lee Research Station in Alexandria, La., noted that one hundred and eighteen varieties will be evaluated this year on seven research stations in the Official Variety Trial (OVT).
