🎙️ New Podcast Episode! What does it take to build a successful Extension program from the ground up—twice? In this episode, we sit down with an Dr. Rachel Vann @IlliniCrops of the University of Illinois who shares the challenges, lessons, and opportunities that come with launching programs at two universities in very different regions of the United States. From understanding local agricultural needs and building relationships with stakeholders to adapting outreach strategies for different cropping systems and communities, this conversation offers an inside look at what it takes to make Extension successful. Whether you're involved in Extension, research, or agriculture, you'll gain valuable insights into the people, partnerships, and persistence behind impactful outreach programs. 🎧 Listen now: Spotify:[open.spotify.com/episode/2dNV8a…] Apple Podcasts: [podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s5-…] YouTube: [@CropProtectionNetwork" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@CropProtectio…] #Extension #LandGrantUniversity #ScienceForSuccess #Agriculture #AgEducation #Outreach #PlantScience #AgPodcast @CropNetwork @ncipmc @SoybeanScience1

A lot of great research from the @SoybeanScience1 team in this special collection!

We are pleased to launch BeanPACK 2.0 with enhanced mobile useability and integration of 15,000 additional data points from @NCOVT @NC_PSI @CropAndSoil @ncsoybeans @jhchandl @NCStateEngr @NCStateDSA go.ncsu.edu/beanpack

Check out this new research paper from the #ScienceForSuccess team! This research, led by @ColetFabiano, investigated the impact of biostimulant seed treatments on #soybean yield. We did not find any significant yield impacts across 103 sites in 22 states. Read more at: resources.ipmcenters.org/resource.cfm?r…

Join for for the launch of BeanPACK 2.0 on Wednesday at 9 AM! @NC_PSI @CropAndSoil @NCExtension @ncsoybeans @jhchandl soybeans.ces.ncsu.edu/2025/10/beanpa…

Looking for more info on #GreenStem in #soybeans? Hear more from @NCStatesoybeans in this video about what we know about this late season issue. #ScienceForSuccess youtu.be/N5GhnVRy6HM

Stressful, late-season environmental conditions can cause issues with #Soybean pod splitting and seed sprouting in the pod. In our latest article, @arksoydoc discusses why this happens and how to prevent issues at harvest. #ScienceForSuccess ow.ly/2e0450X1ucB

In this next video, @StepUpSoy goes into detail about some of the impacts to #soybean production from #HurricaneHelene last year. The #ScienceForSuccess team worked together to document these impacts in the days following landfall to evaluate damage and provide recommendations.
