Alabama Soybean and Corn Yield Contests
Soybean Yield Contest
It is simple to enter. Any soybean producer who grows 10 acres or more AND is a member as of November 30 of the Alabama Soybean and Corn Association is eligible to enter.
The area for the contest will consist of the whole field or whole farm. Applicants will be required to verify acreage in the selected field or farm by attaching a copy of FSA records showing official acreage. Contestants will include weight tickets and grade sheets on soybeans harvested from designated field or farm will be asked to provide a summary of their production practices and cost. Skip row or irrigated soybeans are not eligible. Contestants will certify that the information provided is accurate.
A committee of Association directors will verify yields and determine winners. This committee shall have the authority to arbitrate any point of contention and their decision will be final.
In case of a tie the grower with the lowest cost of production will win. The winners will be announced at the Association meeting. The state winner will receive a plaque and valuable products.
