It is a tough, defensive soybean with excellent scores for stress tolerance and Brown Stem Rot. Its very stable across all yield environments. Strong emergence and early growth make L 2283 XF a terrific candidate for no-till fields. In 2019 breeder trials, it topped L 1948 R2X by almost 4.0 bu/A. It is also tolerant to the Sulfonylurea (group 2) class of herbicides.",
