The 1967 top yielding soybeans were Harosoy 63 Amsoy Wayne and Shelby. For large acreages Harosoy or Amsoy extend the season and mature earlier than Wayne and longer than Shelby or Clark. For best yield try Wayne first Clark or Shelby second then Amsoy. If photophthoria affects fields use Harosoy 63 early beans and Clark 63 late. Fertilize beans with a soil test and do germination tests with inoculation.
