In 1994, the Lousiana Soybean Verification Program (LSRVP) was initiated by Dr. Walter Morrison, and, since then, more than 114 fields in 20 parishes have been involved. The program is now coordinated by Dr. David Y. Lanclos, assistant professor/specialist, and the success of the program has continued to grow.
Historically, LSRVP fields have averaged 12.2 bushels per acre higher than the state average. The objective of the program is to demonstrate to cooperators that by following LSU AgCenter research-based recommendations, yields can be maximized on large farming operations.
The program is supported annually through donations of seed, chemicals and equipment and is funded by the Louisiana Soybean Research Grain & Promotion Board.
