Harvested soybeans in the GLBRC G3, all reps (1, 2, 3, 5, and 4) on November 10, 2017 (yes, November 10th we had so much rain in October we could not harvest them before November). Entire plot weight was determined by unloading soybeans from the combine to a Brent Weigh Wagon, by Unverferth Co. Number of soybean rows harvested from each plot were counted and recorded to determine total area harvested. Each plot had 51 rows of soybeans harvested as the main plot harvest data. Eleven rows on each side (micro-plot area) of each plot were harvested with the Kincaid plot combine and was not included in the total plot weight. Moisture and test weights were determined using a portable Dicky-john GAC500 XT grain analysis moisture tester. Soybeans harvested in G3 were (Pioneer P22T69R). Estimated harvest time was from 3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. (this estimate is just harvest time it does not include equipment set up and equipment clean up time). Harvested soybeans in the bait crop around the GLBRC site, 'rep 6' plots (2 west plots), and north half of the ('old' Productivity study area). Amount of soybeans harvested in the bait crop area: The two 'rep 6' plots were 1040 lbs at 16.1% moisture and 55.0 lbs/bu (test weight). Amount of soybeans harvested in the bait crop area: The soybean bait crop around the GLBRC main plots, which consisted of one strip on beans (south strip) on the north side of the field and two strips on the east and south strips (both east and south strips of beans in the two outer strips i.e. of the three bait strips on the east side we had soybeans in the west and east strips of the three strips of beans. On the south side of the three bait strips we had soybeans in the north and south strips of beans). Also we had beans in the north half of the 'old' Productivity study area. Total amount harvested in the five strips of beans and 'old' productivity study was 8140 lbs at 16.1 % moisture and 52.9 lbs/bu (test weight). Estimated harvest time to harvest the bait crop was from 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. (this estimate is just harvest time it does not include equipment set up and equipment clean up time).
