In this special episode of The Crop Science Podcast Show, we’re marking International Seed Day, which is celebrated this month. Dr. Anuj Chiluwal from Kentucky State University joins us to talk about the connection between soybean yield and seed quality. He explains why seed protein levels are falling, what that means for growers, and how late-season nitrogen strategies and sustainable practices can help. Tune in now on all major platforms!

"Nitrogen limitation during seed fill is the key reason for declining soybean protein levels."

Meet the guest: Dr. Anuj Chiluwal earned his B.Sc. in Agriculture from Tribhuvan University, M.Sc. in Biotechnology from Fort Valley State University, and Ph.D. in Agronomy from Kansas State University. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor of Agronomy at Kentucky State University, focusing on soybean seed quality, nitrogen management, and crop physiology.
