The purpose of this study is to evaluate the carbon-based product, Restore™, and its effect on seed germination, root growth, and profitability.

2017 Multi-Location Soybean Carbon Study - In-Furrow

In our second year of testing Restore™ across multiple locations, we did not see a yield increase in this study. One location showed an increase of 1.8 Bu./A., while the yields at the other five locations were either neutral or negative. Last year, all four locations showed yield gains, but only one location showed a positive return on investment (ROI). The mixed yield results were likely due to year-to-year environmental differences that impacted soil temperature and moisture levels. One clear, favorable trend is that the emerged population has been consistently higher in the treated plots versus control. This product has definitely had a positive impact on soybean germination and emergence, but the predominant issue is that the two-year average ROI is -$16.17.
