Five soybean research organizations launched a multi-regional effort to address flower and pod retention, a leading cause of yield loss. Losses reach about 30% under favorable conditions and up to 80% under drought and heat stress.
Improving flower retention could raise future soybean yields and supply, but the research is long-term and has little near-term price effect.
After 324 past neutral weather events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.7%), and +0.7% over 20.
