Big Bean Crop Follows a Wet Start

This year’s soybean crop made a major reversal after early rains had many farmers scrambling for replants. “The soybeans were awesome this year,” said Rock and Roll Agronomy owner Jason Hanson. “We had probably one of our biggest soybean crops we’ve had in a while and yields would be even higher if we hadn’t had all the drownouts.” The corn also turned out well. “I’ve had people say their corn went from zero to 240 bushels and most of this area is a 79-to-83-day corn so the bushels have been really decent.”
