Lead Researcher (PI): Rosalind Bueckert
Institution: University of Saskatchewan
Total WGRF Funding: $257,226
Co-Funders: None
Start Date: 2020
Project Length: 3 Years
Objectives:

Quantify nitrogen allocation in vegetative biomass and yield at low and high nitrogen fertility for 12 soybean varieties. Determine how soybean yield and seed protein is affected by high and low growth rate scenarios when nitrogen is not limiting.
