Here's a shot of June 17th planted soybeans. Let us hope I do not get a frost...
Not sure if the beans will do any good. I have June 30th beans that are barely knee high. I see pods, but none are filled yet. If I get an early frost, I just planted a very expensive 55 acre garden!
Does this look ok for late planted beans? maturity group 2.7 through 2.9... should I just plow them down? how many pods per plant define the yield? They are 3 bean pods. I just am not a soybean person. I don't know what they do to calculate yield based on plant pods. I got a few 2 bean pods, but they are all still flat, no pod filling, just the outline of the bean in the pod... same as the 3 bean pods. Let us all pray for a very late frost. I took this pic today. I still have flowers on the plants. I'm just getting uneasy. This is really late. I don't know how you double crop guys stand the stress. $60 a bag, bag and a quarter per acre, 32 ounces round-up per acre. full chisel plow tillage with $4 diesel.... I figured that I need 18 bushel per acre to break even, assuming $10.50 beans.
any soy guys want to give me some pointers? thanks!

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
