I'm unsure of this fellow's location, but the 30" row spacing isn't a problem for southern climates in early planted full season beans. Many of our top yields come from 30" row full season beans. We had an old hill farm in full season (4.8-5.2) beans on 30" rows that averaged 70 BPA. I might also add that that it was seeded at 115,000 seeds per acre.
Once the ground is totally covered at or near summer solstice there is no reason to plant the rows any closer or at any higher population. You are absorbing all of the available sunlight. I say there is as many dollars wasted on excess seed here as there is any other mistake. We still have guys planting 200,000 seeds per acre. Their yields aren't any better than anyone else's.
