SW MN and Gold Canyon AZ
It takes 6 to 7 yrs from breeding to commercial release .. Be mindfull they use SA for testing and propagation ... They do select pods of whole plants ..,keep in mind soybean breeding is a numbers game ... The more you breed and test the better your odds of finding a new selection... A million lines might produce 20 new varieties ...that's why a smaller breeder is at a disadvantage
