nw/nc iowa on the banks of West Buttrick Creek..
Soil types limit bean yields more than anything in our area. High lime soil can only be fixed by COC for four years, don't know how long it will last but I have had two really good bean crops now after a four year coc stint. Plan a cbcbcb rotation as long as yields hold up.
