Field experiments at UNIBO investigate agronomic management practices for soya bean cultivation
As part of the Microbiomes4Soyproject, field experiments conducted at the University of Bologna (UNIBO) are evaluating the impact of different agronomic management practices on soya bean cultivation. Three distinct management systems—conservation, conventional, and organic—were tested. To capture the diversity of soya bean traits, five different varieties were chosen for the experiments and organised into four […]
