What's the soybean crop look like up ya'lls way???.....I believe this has been the absolute best soybean growing season that I've ever seen down here.....rains have come at the perfect times......I've seen very little irrigation of soybeans, so far.....if we can keep getting these rains thru the R-6 maturity stage, it'll be a bumper crop.....then, we'll need some great harvest weather, too.

Last year was really good, and we had some yields of 95-100 net bushels per acre.....I've already inspected some Monsanto Xtend soybeans that surely will exceed that, this year.

Ours are not up high enough to set beans yet. We are behind you a few weeks. Early beans are looking good, but most are just planted a couple of weeks ago. They are up and looking for rain.

We've been so dry - they are struggling. They're hanging in there. Just not putting on much size. We squeaked about 1 1/2" a couple days ago. Everything breathed a big sigh.
