Subject: Re: Soybean Row Spacing


Soybeans do well in a lot of different row widths. They probably do best in 15 inch rows planted with a planter. Soybeans do not do as well if planted with a drill. Drills do no maintain the accurate depth of a planter and most do not singulate seeds as well. All soybeans planted with a planter seem to do well. I plant with a 30 inch planter. My farm is small and I can not justify a second planter for soybeans. Many years 30 inch soybeans will out yield the ultra narrow rows but over a long period of years, I would expect the narrow rows to yield a bushel or two more.
