What is the deal with all the bean fields with corn in them. Looks like last years corn. Stalks all brown but field full of beans. Some have maybe 20% corn stalks but there is one in Lawrence county that looks like they just left the corn standing and threw beans on top. Don't they have to at least turn it for the beans to plant and how exactly do they do that without knocking down the corn?

Probably sprayed the field to kill the corn but not the beans. A few years back a guy forgot to close the combine screen or something like that. BIG oops. Guys wanted to hunt the field for geese and the DNR said no, it would be considered baiting.

The field had Corn in it the previous year. It was probably round up resistant corn. Meaning the round up would kill the weeds no the corn. This year they planted round up resistant soybeans and the left over corn had that trait to that was coming up. This year the rains kept them out from spraying when it was little so it got tall quick. When they came back they sprayed roundup and cletodem to kill the corn. Clethidem takes awhile to work

If he is practicing no-till he will not turn the ground over. If it had corn in it last year, it could be volunteers from last season or from seed left in seed drill. Either way, it will be sprayed this season and start to turn brown on top. The green left in stalk is likely leftover memory of last years corn being roundup resistant. The tops dying off is all it will take prevent Regrowth.

Too much crop land and too little time to harvest forces some to run their combines faster than their machines ability to process the grain and some goes out the rear end with the waste. That's my opinion anyway.

That's my opinion anyway. Not sure if this happens with corn but with beans if the moisture is too high at harvest they will lose quite a bit to waste. I think I heard up to 20% if moisture is high enough. |

I wonder how that is considered baiting when leaving a couple of rows for deer isn't,nothing was moved with the intention of changing their pattern,it was an accident?? |

Yeah, a big accident. All the corn ended up back in the field. I guess the guy driving the combine wasn't paying any attention to what he was doing. I don't know if waterfowl falls under a different set of baiting rules, but I think they do. Like you can mow a field of sunflowers for doves, but I don't think you could do that for waterfowl.

That a NO NO for deer also.... as it should be! |
