Should you be concerned about yellow soybeans? Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC), better known as “yellow soybeans,” could be the issue. The yellowing over of soybean fields is a common occurrence in late spring across Manitoba and the Prairies, despite abundant iron in the area’s soil. The condition typically occurs during the early vegetative stages following rainfall and can be caused by a variety of factors.

It’s been said that there is no one “right” way to manage corn fertility. And now, recent research from now-retired University of Manitoba professor Don Flaten and AAFC agronomist Curtis Cavers supports the idea that there’s no clear-cut advantages of differences in results between different sources and placement for corn. That’s good news for producers, since surveys show that growers across Manitoba use a wide variety of practices.

New findings from a Manitoba research project show that when it comes to sowing, soybeans are the Goldilocks of crops. The research shows that soybeans can be sown too deep or too shallow. Dry soil conditions have often led agronomists and farmers alike to chase moisture and seed soybeans at two inches or deeper, while very wet soil conditions in spring have led some to consider broadcasting and incorporating soybean seed. Research aims to find the optimum soybean depth and how that depth would affect crop density and yield.

Volunteer glyphosate-resistant (GR) canola is a challenge for Roundup Ready soybean growers since a glyphosate application does not control the volunteers. A new study led by Robert Gulden in the department of plant science at the University of Manitoba looks to determine the action and economic thresholds for volunteer canola in soybean growth at narrow- and wide-row spacing, and to evaluate the impacts of increasing volunteer canola densities on soybean and volunteer canola plant development and seed yield.

Buying ESN at the same time you purchase urea for the season makes perfect economic sense. ESN is comprised of urea; therefore, its price will generally trend in the same direction as the granular urea markets. Having a plan allows you to make the most out of your time and money.
