Hi Scotty, Dry beans, when they are ripe, will shell out if you even look at 'em cross-wise. So what you do, is to cut and windrow the dudes when the dew is down and the crop is tough (usually at 1 or 2am). Later in the day, when the dew has left and the crop has dried out again, you pick up the windrows with a combine equipped with a "pickup" attachment just as you would for windrowed grain. The main thing about beans is to get the dirt shook outta them while at the same time not crackin' the little sweethearts. Also, a fella has really gotta be careful with the wind. A strong wind can move a newly cut field of beans and you along with it, right into the poorhouse. Allan
