- We developed an approach to evaluate the influence of row spacing on U.S. soybean yield using both producer and experimental data.
- Experimental data showed a consistent yield advantage of narrow versus wide row spacing.
- However, data from producer fields indicate no yield difference between narrow and wide rows.
- This complementary approach can help evaluate yield increase derived from a management practice.
