Seed Treatment Decisions

What might seem like a pretty simple question can be a pretty loaded one, too. This time of year, some version of “Should we treat our soybean seed, and if so, with what?” comes up fairly often. Sometimes the answers are short and sweet, but more often, the question turns into a discussion. The nearly infinite combinations of field conditions, management decisions, weather, seed genetics and many other factors make the seed treatment decision too dynamic for a simple yes or no.
