Dates of soybean planting, locations, weed species, and years, were varied to evaluate the impact of environment on weed-crop competition. Soybean leaf area, mainstem node development and abscission were reduced as much as 10 percent in plants growing within 20 cm of the weed base; these reductions were not well correlated with final soybean yield. The mean yield of all soybean plants growing within 100 cm of the weed base varied from 0 to 26 percent among treatments and was highly correlated with the total projected leaf area of the weed as viewed from a camera directly over the weed-crop canopy (r$\sp2$ = 0.88). The seed yield of these same soybean plants was not so well correlated with actual weed leaf area (r$\sp2$ = 0.46) and weed diameter (r$\sp2$ = 0.80). The average yield of the soybean plants within 20 cm of the weed reliably predicted the mean yield of all soybean plants within 100 cm of the weed (r$\sp2$ =.86). A linear function model for soybean growth within the area of weed influence was generated and found to approximate actual field measurements (r$\sp2$ = 0.96). This model was based upon the selection of the data point from plants nearest the weed and from a point on a three-point moving average 80 cm from the weed.
