Early-Planted Soybeans Are Winning : How Does This Change Your Weed Control?


Listen Later

More farmers across the Midwest are pushing planting dates earlier in the season to capture longer growing seasons, improved yield potential, and better crop development.

In this episode of Farm4Profit, we sit down with Eric Sherder from Corteva to talk about why early soybean planting is gaining momentum and how new genetics and herbicide systems are helping farmers manage the risks.

We discuss:

🌱 Why Early Soybean Planting Works

• Longer growing seasons and higher yield potential

• How long summer days improve plant development
• The impact on pod formation and seed fill
• Avoiding late-season stress from heat and drought
• Regional considerations and soil conditions

⚠️ Managing the Risks

• Cold stress concerns when planting early

• Early-season diseases and pest pressure
• Insects and nematodes that can threaten early stands
• Strategies farmers use to protect young soybean plants

đź§Ş The Role of Seed Treatments

• How treatments help protect against early-season diseases

• Improving emergence and stand establishment in cool soils
• Reducing later-season pest pressure
• Saving time and reducing the need for additional crop protection passes

🌿 Enlist® Soybean Technology

• What makes the Enlist® system different from conventional soybean platforms

• Herbicide flexibility with 2,4-D choline, glyphosate, and glufosinate
• Multiple modes of action to tackle tougher weed challenges
