I've been corn on corn for ten+ years in many fields. They get tested, and limed and manure and NPK to test for 150+ bu corn. With no rain for 14 weeks after planting last year they yielded 104 bu, but the year before was 189 bu. I use no-til, chop stalks in the fall and try to plant into a cover of rye or wheat, which is burned down before planting. If you have bean seed available, by all means, plant it. I'm not sure about your area exactly, but get them in as soon after normal corn planting as you can. Full season beans yield nearly double what double-crop beans do, combine them and use them to buy corn for winter feed if you need it. If you have any ground left, put it into corn and harvest it for your own use. Make the ground work for you! Whatever you do, soil test. It will tell you what you really need for a good crop. If you have manure, test it. Then adjust your nutrients to what the crop needs to meet your yield goals. And set your goals realistically high, and plant to achieve them.
