New! Download the Soybean Variety Guide Highlighter Tool
- Using data from the 2022 soybean variety trials, this excel tool auto-generates a highlighter test. Once you select a variety from the drop-down list on the right side of the spreadsheet, varieties that yielded significantly better than your selection will be highlighted in green and varieties that yielded significantly worse will be highlighted in red based on each site’s individual LSD value.
- Within this spreadsheet, there are six sheets reporting data from the Eastern Manitoba Herbicide-Tolerant Soybeans, Western Manitoba Herbicide-Tolerant Soybeans, Eastern Manitoba Conventional Soybeans, Western Manitoba Conventional Soybeans, Eastern First-Year Entry and Western First-Year Entry Trials.
