I thought beans were the cool thing to plant early in cold soils? Did that flip back?
So have been drilling beans in April when I can going back to the 1980's, and really have never had a bad experience doing so while finding the yields on par or often better than later planted beans. Sometimes with drilling the beans no-till into c. rye, the field conditions are ready to go before some of the ground going to corn will be.
That said, tomorrow will probably try both corn and beans, and see if either is really ready to go. Many spots are very ready now, but whether I have enough uniformity w/o compromising too much will be the question. With corn this early, I don't want to be doing any compromising, but with beans think I can tolerate a little w/o significantly hurting anything. Long term no-tiller, feel my fields/soils to be pretty resilient.
Then again, 50% chance of rain, ha. |
Anyone planting corn?
