EC IL | Have a 160 acre farm we used to farm as two 80's and rotated every year.
This was the first year we went all one crop and noticed one side did much worse than the other even with similar varieties.
Fertilizer numbers are fine for this field so we don't think it was a deficiency issue(at least not with P &K )
Poor drainage didn't help as this year the low ground flooded much worse but that can't be the only reason and it was obviously one side vs the other.
Deere has a tool in op center that lets you get an average of whatever years you want. I put in the 8 years of good data I had vs this year. and this is what it looked like.
West side averaging about 60bu/ac while the East side about 45?
When I did this for corn it looked even.
Any reason you can think of that one side would be much worse for soybeans but not for corn?
