Subject: Corn Soybean ratio


west central MN

I have read a lot of comments about how there will be a lot of acres switched from corn to beans. I am questioning why this year and not last year? When I did my cash flow last year it strongly suggested planting more beans and showed beans way more profitable then corn. When I do my cash flows this year it is not nearly as much difference as last year. I am using new crop prices the same as I did last spring. If we planted over 90 million acres of corn last year and profits strongly favored beans why will we plant less corn this year when the spread between new crop corn is actually closer this year then last spring? Last spring new crop beans were still $12.50 during planting and we also had a late spring to push for more beans and less corn.
