Gravesdepartment of plant& soil sciencePerformance of Soybean Varieties in 198ol1Charles R. Grave~1Soybean varieties in Maturity group V were evaluated at seven locations,in Maturity groups VI and VII at five locations, and in Maturity groups IV orless at four locations.Yields were reduced at most locations in 1980 due to high temperaturesand dry weather during the growing season. At Ames Plantation the yieldswere very low. The yields at Greeneville were high because the test was ir-rigated.The leading varieties in Maturity group V were Essex, Peterson Xl086-l9,Asgrow A56l8, Bay, Peterson Xl190-l9, and RA 604.The highest yielders in Maturity groups VI and VII were Deltapine 506,FFR 668, VR 8026, RA 603, and Centennial. Varieties in these maturity groupsat Ames Plantation produced higher yields than varieties in Maturity group Vbut they were still low when compared to previous years. The early maturingvarieties performed well at Springfield on a Huntington silt loam which hasa high water supplying capacity. Desoto and Delta were the two leading varie-ties in the early maturing group.The varieties with the highest average yields in Dyer County (Table 10)were Pickett 71, Centennial, and Forrest.l/These results will be included in the "1980 Performance Trials of FieldCrop Varieties" bulletin.llAssociate Professor of Plant and Soil Science.Table 1.
