Harvest Is Complete

We got the double crop beans run, and my field made 19 bushel per acre.  I'm pretty satisfied with that.  It really beats what I expected when I planted them, since I figured buying extra seed to sow the whole field was one of my more foolish expenditures of money.  Overall, we ended up with corn yielding near 60 percent of average and beans yielding around 80 percent.  Not too bad for a season with such a long, dry, hot summer.  With the higher prices and a likely crop insurance claim on the corn, we'll end up not too bad.
