NW Missouri | I bet he's in MO too. My rotation for the last few years has been 1 year of corn, 2 years of beans. I love to plant and harvest corn, but beans are more consistently profitable here, mostly because of the more consistent yields. Never going to have a complete yield train wreck with bean yields like you can with corn. And they cost less to plant. And they take way less room to store. I'm like you, I don't see any yield difference usually on beans after corn verus beans after beans. But I do put on P&K every year, not just in the corn years.
One guy near me farms about 1500 acres - last year he had 100 acres of corn.
