When I was guiding we shot bean fields quite often...but mostly in bad weather. Just seemed to produce better on those days. Winter wheat was a close 2nd for geese on the shore but many farmers planted it for the double crop option even in corn fields. Beans are at a high price now(so is corn) so I think you will see more beans next year..especially if the farmers do futures on the beans. The place we have left on the shore is one we do futures on every year..figuring on a 40% crop basis..If they are growing good and the crop looks good we always sell a few more..up to an 80% basis..and take out chances on the left over.. Friend did a barley crop this year(high prices too) and did beans after 'em..edible soy beans though(really high prices...Japanese)
