It would appear that the beans germinated and grew even though the planter failed to cover some of the seed.
Should know the yield in a few weeks . June 9th vs October 11th.

Ours struggled to reach 40 bushels per acre. But, I was surprised at that level since they looked tough all summer. The test plot of 9 varieties ranged from 48 to 35 bu per acre. Some soys are still too green to harvest, but the area should be about half done by Saturday.

The soybean dust has been flying in Bruce County since Tuesday. Although by the amount of rain expected starting tonight The equipment will be parked for a week.
 
I was out in the Lancaster area of Pennsylvania today. Saw a couple of bean fields but ALL of the corn is gone. Flat empty fields. Now here is the rest. They were baleing everything that wasn't nailed down. Roughly half and half to round bales and those super big regular bales. This guy was chugging right along.

It got dry here beginning of September. When that happens a lot of the BTO?s bale up the fodder. None baled last year, way too wet. Corn makes a lot of tonnage apparently.
 
you'll do alright, field next to me is so hard more then 1/2 of the beans don't get covered and they do good on production.
 
Looks nice. Dry dirt in spring and now, I wish! Been a mud fest here all year, very late planting, water puddles in the fields all year. Very little sun. Didn?t worry about how the seed got planted just if you could any which way.

Nothing harvested some distant neighbors have a fair amount of beans out. Got lots of rain and a whisper of snow on already too wet ground.

Not as bad as the Dakotas tho, feel for those folk. Been a tough year for a big area.

Your stuff looks nice!

Corn is still green here and the cobs while drooping, they are still more vertical than horizontal.
Haven t seen large silage cutting and grain corn is a killer frost and at least a month away from combining .
 

We drove inland yesterday and the corn looks much different a few miles inland from the lake . Corn that was not cut for forage has been frost burned white and the cobs are drooping .
