Soybean Production: A Guide to Best Practices

Mississippi farmers know all too well that agricultural production is strongly influenced by many factors, some they can control and others they can’t. The Mississippi Soybean Promotion Board (MSPB) has put together a guide that gives farmers tools to maximize soybean yields on their farms.

This Best Management Practices (BMP) Guide provides a summary of significant management practices that can help Mississippi farmers be more successful in their soybean-growing operation. The highlighted practices are proven to contribute to higher yields in both research environments and producers’ fields.

These BMPs are a compilation of results from MSPB-funded research and experiment station and extension projects.With each practice, farmers will find a certain rationale for why they should consider using it. This may be expressed through a yield advantage or promoted to protect the growing crop and improve the quality of the harvested seed.
