Extension answers questions Associations set soybean germination standards
County Extension Agent Harold Spence notes Indiana has no state seed law. Germination standards are set by crop improvement associations, with Indiana reducing blue tag certified soybeans from 80 to 70 percent at a board meeting. Ohio maintains 80 percent, while wool and mohair payments shift with market prices. Ohio corn borer counts rise slightly but remain largely insignificant for 1965, and two-year variety tests highlight Vernal Culver Orchies as top performers among ten varieties.
