Soybean School: Does it pay to plant early?

- When it comes to increasing soybean yield, University of Illinois plant physiology professor Fred Below has two words of advice - plant early.
In his presentation earlier this month at the Ontario Agricultural Conference, Below shared data from eight years of trials that show growers in Illinois lose almost half a bushel (0.47 bu/ac) for every day planting is delayed after April 23. On this episode of RealAgriculture's Soybean School, he shares how this data and a growing understanding of soybean vigour and resilience is convincing many Illinois growers to plant soybeans before corn.

I can’t control the water hemp in my early beans anymore … going back to planting beans after corn .. sure they yield but I lose the gains in yield from respraying for waterhemp and it’s more work so what’s the point … we’re raising to many beans anyway just look at the price here at harvest 2024 …
We did some early April bean planting this year and ran into problems with slug damage. Would have been better to wait.
When should I apply fertiliser to my soya bean farm? What type of fertiliser should I apply? Thank you
Fred Below is great

In some ground his advice is very good. However, in the black "jumbo" of Iroquois county early planting leads to high soil compaction from the higher moisture levels. Iroquois county is not the only ground the black "jumbo" in the state. Our ground here holds deeper water in the drought exceedingly well for late usage by the beans in md/late August just when other areas are drying and dying out. Almost always get 60 bushels and usually closer to 62-64 per acre. We have to factor moisture, temp and specific soil on each field for maximum potential yields. The farmers that "mud in" seed too early often don't get full closure of the seed furrow, plus the furrow trough and walls itself is heavily compacted. Beans can tolerate that but corn is certainly challenged a bit. Good video, thanks for sharing!
