Table 5. 2020 MG-3 Yield, Agronomic, and Quality Data across REC

Table 5-a. Mean yield and agronomic traits of 9 Maturity Group III (3.0 – 3.9) soybean varieties evaluated in small plot replicated trials at seven AgResearch and Education Center locations in Tennessee during 2020. Analysis included variety performance over a 1 yr (2020), 2 yr (2019-2020), and 3 yr (2018-2020) period.
