Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Across 63 environments, inoculants did not produce a soybean yield response significantly different from zero relative to untreated control.
- Observation At the stated sale price, Nebraska soybean inoculation had a 59% probability of break-even economic return.
- Observation At the stated sale price, Wisconsin soybean inoculation had a 36% probability of break-even economic return.
- Observation At the stated sale price, Indiana soybean inoculation had a 25% probability of break-even economic return.
- Observation At the stated sale price, Iowa soybean inoculation had a 4% probability of break-even economic return.
- Observation A 67 kg ha−1 return target reduced inoculation success to 11% in Nebraska.
- Observation A 67 kg ha−1 return target reduced inoculation success to 2% in Wisconsin.
- Observation A 67 kg ha−1 return target reduced inoculation success to 1% in Minnesota.
- Observation A 67 kg ha−1 return target reduced inoculation success to 7% in Indiana.
- Observation A 67 kg ha−1 return target reduced inoculation success to 0.2% in Iowa.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that inoculant application offers limited prospects for soybean yield or economic return in upper Midwestern soils previously planted to soybean.
