Worldwide, soybean is one of the most important crops for human and animal consumption. Soybean production is supported by a large community of soybean researchers and Extension Specialists in nearly every soybean producing state in the US and worldwide.  These researchers have a history of communication and collaboration. This ASA sanctioned community will help enhance this interaction by hosting this poster session. This community is focused on fostering communication among applied soybean researchers worldwide to further the science that supports modern soybean production. Although soybean exists in diverse cropping systems, the physiology of this unique crop requires specialized research.
