Soybean plot....


Recommended Posts

We have had plenty of rain this summer and it has really helped the soybean plot. Last fall I went pheasant hunting in west Texas and I picked up about 10 full ears of corn off the field we were hunting. I didn't know if they were RR or not but I plucked all the kernels off and kept them in a baggy until spring. I tossed the kernels in with the soybeans and planted them. I'm sure plenty of the seeds got eaten by crows but a few survived. Each plant has 2 ears. They are not super big ears but it was fun just to see what it would do. Plenty of deer sign in the soybean plot but the Eagle Beans are keeping up with the deer pressure.

How big is your plot Todd? I planted a little over an acre of the Eagle beans 3 years ago and the deer wouldn't let them get over 6 inches tall. Great product.

It is a little over 2 acres. I probably don't have the deer density you have. We average about 15 deer per sq mile.
