The researchers studied how different amounts of cereal rye seeds affect weed control and crop growth when planting green in the Mid-Atlantic United States. They found that using cereal rye in the fall helps suppress weeds, but the amount of seeds used doesn't change the level of weed control. This means that farmers don't need to increase or decrease the amount of cereal rye seeds for weed control or crop yield when planting green in no-till soybean production in the Mid-Atlantic region. Soybean yield was not affected by the different seeding rates.
