Irrigation Scheduling of Soybean – A Dual Threshold Method to Eliminate Yield Reducing Stresses and Maximize Water-Use Efficiency
The overall purpose of this proposal is to maximize yield with the least amount of water by identifying thresholds which will alleviate temperature and moisture related yield-reducing stresses economically. Specific objectives were to 1) determine a dual irrigation threshold (heat & moisture induced or moisture induced) for soybean using soil water potential sensors (Watermarks) in silt loam, silty clay loam and silty clay textured soils; 2) monitor and identify irrigation thresholds (heat & moisture induced or moisture induced) in soybean using volumetric soil moisture sensors in silt loam, silty clay loam and clay textured soils; and 3) economically evaluate the yields and production costs of each irrigation treatment.
01-2019 Cook Management of Soybean Insect Pests
During 2019 ten experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of selected insecticides against a range of soybean insect pests including, seedling/soil insects (corn rootworm, wireworm, pea leaf weevil), bollworm, soybean looper, and stink bugs (including redbanded stink bug).

2019 Soybean Stem Canker Inoculated Variety Trial Evaluations
Stem canker is a major disease in MS and continues to take yield away from growers if susceptible varieties are planted. This document is the 2019 Stem canker inoculated variety trial evaluations should be used as a guide for variety selection and stem canker susceptibility.
36-2019 Dr. Trent Irby Soybean Variety Selection
Soybean variety selection is very important to the growers of Mississippi and this variety selection information is one of the most widely used piece of information to the growers. Variety selection recommendation are made through the on-farm demonstration program.
36-2019 Dr. Trent Irby Soybean Variety Demonstration Program
Every year Dr. Trent Irby and extension agents across Mississippi plant variety trials for quality and yield. Trials are usually planted in strip plot design and weighed and yield data collected.
10-2019 Sensors: It all starts with installation Article
When used correctly, soil moisture sensors can be a valuable tool for helping farmers know when to irrigate. Ensuring the information gathered by sensors is reliable and useful starts with proper installation. with proper installation. Sensors should be installed in the row with the crop, and it is best to install them when the crop is young, roughly 6 inches in height. This helps to minimize damage to the crop and provides the sensors an opportunity to go through a few wetting and drying cycles while installed in the field. Installing sensors when the crop is young allows more time for the sensors to acclimate to the soil before the farmer is ready to begin irrigation applications.
