‘Plants per acre’
BLOOMINGTON, 111. -
How would you like to boost
your soybean yields by five
per cent just by changing
your thinking about planting
rates from pounds per acre
to plants per acre’
That’s the average in
crease Dr. Charles Laible,
manager of soybean
research for Funk Seeds
International, feels most
growers would realize by
using this more precise
planting method. In many
cases, it could mean sub
stantial yield differences
because soybean seed size
often varies greatly.
A common belief among
farmers is that the soybean
is a versatile plant with the
ability to compensate for
most planting errors. Laible
disagrees: “The problem is
that this compensating
ability takes the form of
branching out at the bot
tom.”

for soybean fields
Being on the high side of
the optimum population can
result m lodging, which
means a grower will be
forced to leave more beans
in the field at harvest. In
addition, high populations
mean greater stress on the
plants and reduced overall
performance and yield,
Laible explains.
He says low populations
with too much space bet
ween plants allow the
soybeans to branch out.
These low branches cause
harvest problems. And there
may be greater exposure to
mold and pod rot from soil
splashing onto the lower
pods.
Laible urges soybean
growers to calibrate their
planters or drills to establish
a specific plant population,
mstead of planting the usual
pounds per acre.
What rates are best?
Laible recommends 175,000
At 10:00 A.M.
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, February 17,1979
plants per acre for standard
varieties m standard rows.
That would be about 10 seeds
per foot in 30-inch rows. For
the newly developed, shorter
varieties in narrow rows of
10 inches and less, he
recommends 215,000 plants
per acre. That’s about four
seeds per foot for 10-inch
rows, and three seeds per
foot for 7-inch rows.
Allowance should also be
made for the percentage of
non-germmating seeds when
calculating the number of
seeds per foot of row, Laible
says. He adds that a
grower’s particular growing
conditions and yield ex
pectations must also be
taken into account when
deciding plant population.
Planting by plants per
acre won’t do any good if a
grower is careless about
other planting accuracy
practices, Laible cautions.
So, he gives the following
tips to help achieve better
soybean stands and sub
sequent yields:
Plant early. Soybeans
shouldn’t be treated like a
second sister to com. Studies
at Ohio State University
have shown that soybeans
respond to early planting
with a similar percentage
increase in yield as com.
Unless there are equipment
change-over problems,
growers should give

urged
soybeans a chance at bigger
yields by planting earlier.
Many of the newly
developed varieties are bred
for higher vigor, allowing
earlier planting. It is best to
ask the seed supplier about
vigor, however, before
moving the planting too far
into the cool, wet weather of
early Spring.
Tighten upthose rows. The
arguments for narrow rows
and solid seeding get
stronger each year. One is
the better weed control that
is possible today. Another is
the availability of new
varieties specially bred for
narrow-row and solid
seeding culture. And, more
equipment is now available
for planting narrow rows,
including new drills
specifically designed for
uniform seeding of
soybeans. Making the switch
to narrower rows has paid
off well for many growers.
Prepare the seedbed
adequately. Having a
smooth, mellow seedbed is
especially important if
soybeans are planted with a
conventional drill that is not
heavy enough to assure
uniform planting depth.
Large clods m the seedbed
can make the drill runners
bounce up and down. One
way to avoid this is to pull a
