A management game incorporating key decisions in corn and soybean production was constructed. Participants in an experiment were asked to play the game by making a series of decisions. Some of the participants in the experiment were denied access to research information and/or feedback from the previous decision. Results of the experiment indicated a significant positive return to both information and learning from feedback.
