Brief Project Summary:

Alabama has warm summers, with the 20 year maximum day mean temperature at several research stations reaching around 90 °F during the months of July and August. Soybean as a summer crop is well adapted to grow in these environments without showing symptoms of temperature stress or yield penalties (Salem et al., 2007; Djanaguiraman et al., 2013). However, due to the high humidity, night temperatures are elevated, with several research stations reaching minimum mean temperatures (MMT) above 70 °F for at least 20 days each month in summer, and with some summer having months with at least 8 days with a MMT of 75 °F or above. In previous research, it has been shown that high night temperatures...

Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
