I think you'll be pleased with a corn/soybean rotation. That's what I've been doing for the past 15 years. I've tried 30", 15" and 7.5" rows. Not much difference that I can tell although research indicates better yields with 15" rows. Maybe because the plants have a little more elbow room and maybe because phosphorus, which doesn't move around in the soil, is more readily available to the plant?
