Dr. J. Ritchie Cowan, head of Oregon State University's farm crops department, says tests have indicated that extremely nign yields 01 quality soybeans can be produced in the irrigated areas around Ontario. "This vear. Dreliminarv sov bean trials also will be held at OSU's Experiment Stations near Hermiston and Moro to see how well the protein-rich legume produces in those different cli matic areas," he added. OSU agronomist Luther Fitch reveals, "In tests conducted be tween 1958 and 1964, then-rec ord yields of 3,300 to 3,600 pounds of soybeans per acre were obtained at the Malheur Experiment Station near On tario. The record U. S. average yield established in 1966, is about 1,525 pounds. "Recently," Fitch notes, "top soybean producers in the Mid west have achieved yields ex ceeding 3,000 pounds per acre. But with newly developed cul tural methods and increased re search, it seems likely that Ore gon could improve on its pre vious record." Soybean production advant ages in the test areas include warm days and nights during tne growing season, and rela tively high supplies of carbon dioxide in the air. In addition, somewhat larger bean sizes were produced in the Ontario tests. Cowan and Fitch observe that soybeans are not presently grown in Eastern Oregon be cause they are not competitive with such alternative crops as alfalfa seed, wheat, sugar beets and potatoes. Also, soybeans must be processed, and a pro cessing plant is not presently available. However," thev point out, 'there are some signs that the situation may be changing. Many observers feel that an in crease in soybean prices is in evitable with the growing world need for protein-rich foods." Varieties slated for testing in the ObU trials include Merit, which appears the most prom ising for Eastern Oregon condit ions. Among the problems to be studied are moisture timing, vir us diseases and insect damage. An investigation of the use of growth regulating hormones al so is planned. It is expected that the trials will reconfirm the need for special attention to seed inoculation a must for good soybean yields in Eastern Oregon.
