Soybean Intensification Survey
Anonymous data gathered from this survey will provide direct insights into current soybean management practices across the United States, awareness and experience with intensification strategies in different cropping systems, and perspectives of economic and production benefits of these strategies by region. This will allow participating researchers to better understand soybean intensification needs and opportunities to prioritize in future research, teaching and Extension efforts.
​
Farmers and agronomists in all soybean-producing states are encouraged to participate! Biweekly updates with response volume from each state will be shared here.​ Check back for project updates!​​

State Response Update (current as of 07/04/2025)
This survey is a "friendly" state-to-state competition. We will be posting response updates here at least every two weeks (those updates will also be shared with our QSSBs and partnering institutions). To keep things fair, we are racing to see which state can get the highest response-to-soybean-acreage ratio! Wondering what your state soybean acreage is? Check it out below!
