When Do We Stop Irrigating Soybean?

Filed Under:
August 9, 2023

Trent and Drew visit the Crop Doctors’ Podcast studio in Stoneville to discuss when farmers should terminate irrigation on soybean and how to decide that.  The sweet spot for ceasing irrigation on soybean is growth stage R6.5, but the trick is having adequate moisture in the root zone to carry the crop to that growth stage from the time of the last irrigation.  As you’ll hear in the beginning of the episode, we recorded this podcast episode prior to the rain on Tuesday morning.
