On this episode of the Field Advisor podcast, Kelsey Litchfield chats with Connor Sible, PhD, research assistant professor at the University of Illinois, about what tissue testing in soybeans can tell us—and whether it's worth the time and money, especially with today’s tighter margins.
Connor shares what he’s learned so far from the first year of Illinois soybean checkoff-funded research looking at the best time to tissue test soybeans to get a clearer picture of nutrient needs and increase yields. He talks about some of the challenges with tissue testing, how soybeans move nutrients through the plant, and how farmers and researchers working together can turn data into practice on their fields.
If you’ve ever questioned the value of tissue testing, this episode offers practical information to help you decide what works best for your farm.
