We aren't in the REALLY bad drought as when you go 30 miles west of here the corn only made it to about waist high, but we look for our corn to do about 80-90 bushels and the beans will hopefully beat 25 but it's hard to tell at this point. The point I was trying to make was that these beans in particular had been ripped and look beautiful.......but there were so many variables throughout the year it's hard to tell. Only reason we are where we are is because we had LOTS of moisture this spring which made planting a mess. This is one of those years you just want to wipe it off the slate and look forward to next year.
