Management of Green Stem Syndrome

Determining the cause and management of green stem is an active area of research in the North Central region. Variety selection is currently the most effective management tactic. Soybean varieties differ in the amount of green stem development.

A summary of green stem incidence on varieties is available from the University of Illinois at the Varietal Information Program for Soybeans (click the Compare Varieties button at top of page).

Your seed dealer may also have information on potential green stem development of a specific soybean variety .
