A soybean agronomy lead with BASF says it starts with the seed.
“At BASF, we’re focused on making sure growers have the genetics they need for a successful crop,” says Marc Hoobler. “And once that crop is planted, the environment is the biggest yield-limiting factor, which goes beyond weather to the field level.”
He says understanding how soybeans build yield in different soil types and different parts of the country make a difference and then, applying different management practices.
