Offered Papers Theme A: Efficient Production from Grassland
Event Title
Breeding and Evaluation of Forage Soyabeans
Description
The principal use of soyabean in the US in the early 1900s was as livestock forage. Soyabeans are less expensive to establish than small seeded perennial legume forages and can provide legume protein after winter killing of perennial legumes. Soyabean can improve production distribution by vigorous growth during the hot summer season when traditional perennial legumes are less productive.
