Almost all plants erect 2. All plants slightly leaning or a few plants down 3. All plants leaning moderately (45%) or 25 to 50% of plants down 4. All plants leaning considerably or 50 to 80% of plants down 5. Almost all plants down Soybean performance tests are conducted each year to provide information on the relative performance of new and established varieties and brands at several locations in Kansas. Seeds for tests are from private seed companies, certified growers, and agricultural experiment stations (Table 1). Seed quality, including factors such as purity and germination, can be important in determining the performance of a variety. Soybean seed used for private and public entries in the Kansas Crop Performance Tests is prepared professionally and usually meets or exceeds Kansas Crop Improvement Certification standards. Relative performance of a given variety comparable to that obtained in these tests is best assured under similar environmental conditions and cultural practices and with the use of certified or professionally prepared seed. All companies known to be developing and marketing soybean varieties or brands are invited to submit test seed; interested companies enter on a voluntary, fee-entry basis. Height is the average length from the soil surface to the top of the main stem of mature plants. VARIETY OR BRAND SELECTION Performance of soybean varieties or brands varies from year to year and from location to location, depending on factors such as weather, management practices, and variety adaptation. When selecting varieties or brands, producers should carefully analyze variety performance for two or more years across locations. Performance averaged over several environments will provide a better estimate of genetic potential and stability than performance based on a few environments. Companies were invited to enter Roundup-resistant varieties in either the Roundup trials or the conventional/ Liberty Link trials at Scandia, Ottawa, or Parsons. Small differences in yield between any two varieties or brands usually are not important. Within maturity groups at each location, LSD (least significant difference) was calculated. The significance level used to calculate the LSD was 10%. Unless two varieties differ in yield by more than the LSD, genetic yield potential of one entry cannot be considered superior to that of another. Entries were planted in four-row plots with rows 30 inches apart and were replicated three or four times each. Seeding rate ranged from 7 to 12 seeds per foot of row. The center two rows of each plot were harvested for yield. Harvested row lengths ranged from 11 to 33 feet, depending on location. Cultural practices and rainfall for each test location are presented with each table. Results from this year's tests are presented in Tables 2 through 21. Relative yields of each entry from all locations are shown in Tables 22 and 23. Test results also can be found online at: http://www.agronomy.ksu.edu/kscpt The coefficient of variability (CV) represents an estimate of the precision in the replicated yield trials. A CV of less than 10% indicates a good test with a high level of reliability. CVs ranging from 10 to 15% are usually acceptable for performance comparisons. CVs greater than 15% generally lack sufficient precision to provide any more than a rough guide to cultivar performance. For tests in which the precision was insufficient to statistically compare performance among the entries, the LSD value has been replaced with the designation NS, indicating that seed yields were not significantly different. DATA INTERPRETATION Yields are recorded as bushels per acre (60 lb/bushel); adjusted to 13% moisture content when moisture data are available. Seed yield also is expressed as a percentage of the test average to assist in identifying entries that consistently produce better than the average yield. Maturity is the date on which 95% of the pods have ripened (browned). Delayed leaf drop and green stems are not considered when assigning maturity. About 1 week of good drying weather after maturing is needed before soybeans are ready to harvest. -1- Table 1. Entrants in the 2013 Kansas Soybean Performance Tests Arkansas Ag. Exp. Stn.

K-State Soybean Schools scheduled at four locations in February Kansas State University NEW - 2014 Soybean Production Schools ‘Save the Date’ A series of four Kansas State University Soybean Production Schools will be offered in late February 2014 to provide in-depth training for soybean producers and key stakeholders. The schools will be held at four locations around the state. The one-day schools will cover a number of issues facing soybean growers: irrigation management, weed control strategies, crop production practices, nutrient and soil fertility, and insect and disease management. The final dates and specific locations have been set. The focus of the Soybean Schools will be in east central, southeast, northern and south central Kansas. • Feb. 24 – Topeka – Washburn Tech Conference Center • Feb. 25 – Pittsburg – Memorial Auditorium • Feb. 27 – Concordia – Cloud County Community College • Feb. 28 – Newton – Meridian Center Certification credits will be offered (CCA Credits). More information on this specific point as well as related to the final program for each Soybean School will be provided in future communications. - Ignacio Ciampitti, Crop Production/ Cropping Systems Specialist ciampitti@ksu.edu - Doug Shoup, Southeast Area Crops and Soils Specialist dshoup@ksu.edu - 23 - To access crop performance testing information electronically, visit our website.
