The purpose of this study is to examine how planting depth impacts plant population, emergence and yield.

2017 Murray State Soybean Planting Depth Study

We had difficulty maintaining a consistent planting depth across the entire planter, so we were forced to plant this study on 30 in rows. Given the later planting date, this was less than ideal. However, because the soil was already warm and growing conditions were good, the 1 in. planting depth provided the best yield.
