ESN Increases Irrigated Soybean Yields in Two-Year Mississippi Study

A two-year Mississippi study demonstrates how ESN can increase yields in irrigated soybean production. ESN can provide additional nitrogen to soybean plants during flowering and pod set, resulting in higher yields. ESN  protects nitrogen (N) from loss inside its unique protective coating and supplies N to the crop when it is needed. The result is increased soybean yields and improved N-use efficiency.

Soybean plants need N throughout the growing season. Most N needed by the plant is produced through nodules on the roots, however, under high yield situations, this may not be sufficient N for optimum yields. By applying ESN  just prior to bloom, additional N will be supplied during the peak demand period.

In this two-year Mississippi study, ESN yielded more than untreated plots by an average of four bushels/acre, with the greatest increase generally coming at the 80 lbs N/acre rate.
