Summary of significant effects of cultural practices on soybean yield components. (A) Soybean seed number by rotation type (CC, cover crop; or fallow) and late-season input treatment (Control, Inoculant application at R3, and N fertilizer applications after R5) at each location. Data averaged across cultivars and years. (B) Effect of cover crop (Fallow–cover crop) on soybean seed number by cultivar at each location and year. The asterisk indicates a significant cover crop effect at P < 0.05. (C) Soybean seed weight by late-season input treatment (Control, Inoculant application at R3, and N fertilizer applications after R5). Data averaged across locations, years, rotation types, and cultivars. (D) Soybean seed weight by rotation type (CC, cover crop; or fallow) at each location. Data averaged across years, late-season input treatments, and cultivars. Different letters above each bar indicate significantly different means at P < 0.05.
