Double cropping soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] after winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) increases total food production without additional land. However, double‐crop soybean usually yields less than full‐season soybean, mainly due to late planting. We evaluated double‐crop soybean growth and yield as affected by early planting immediately after high‐moisture wheat harvest across 20 site‐years in five Mid‐Atlantic states during 2015–2017. At each site, six soybean cultivars from relative maturity group (rMG) 3.1–5.9 were planted at three to five dates in a 4‐ to 14‐d interval. Soybean growth, measured by normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) across the growing season, was affected only by planting date. Although NDVI peaked near the R5 stage, it took 9–27 more days to reach the peak NDVI (0.84–0.98) for early‐planted soybean than for late‐planted soybean. Relative yield declined with planting dates, which explained 41–81% of the relative yield variability. The yield loss from delayed planting was greater in the north (33–80%; Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware) than in the south (20–27%; Virginia, North Carolina) due to longer delay in planting and shorter growing season in the north. Soybean NDVI from the R1–R6 stages was associated with yield, with the strongest association (R2 =.55–.57) at the R2 and R3 stages. The area under the NDVI curve (AUNDVIC) was also strongly associated (R2 =.77) with relative yield, indicating an excellent tool for explaining double‐crop soybean yield loss due to poor growth. High‐moisture wheat harvest facilitated soybean planting 4–21 d earlier, which increased growth and yield. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
