Secure Optimal Yield 2007

 

Click here for information about the 2008 SOY Field Trials.

The American Soybean Association and BASF present the Secure Optimal Yield (SOY) Field Trials program to provide a select group of soybean growers with an opportunity to demonstrate enhanced weed and disease management techniques on their farm. More than 100 U.S. soybean growers were chosen.

All participating growers will receive an ASA-BASF "Secure Optimal Yield" logo jacket, and can earn a $250.00 Home Depot Gift Card from the ASA, redeemable at over 1,500 locations nationwide, when they provide their field trial results.

For more information see the Program Objectives and Participation Criteria.

Get expert advice from BASF on how to better manage weeds and diseases to maximize soybean yields.
