nc ks | I think it is partly the genetics but also the long term no till and other best management practices. Usually when we add land, it has been conveniently tilled (oops conventionally, but the oops is true also) and had a lot of wheat planted on it regularly. In togh years or good years too, the land we have been farming a long time just yields better. Both corn and beans. This is often adjoining land or land across the road. It can be as much as half the yield on really hot and dry years, same hybrids and varieties.
Many times the plants die in spots before rain on the poorer soil structure, where they make it on the better.
