If your double planting then you set the planter to plant HALF the target population. Remember your double planting.
The yield difference between 15 and 30 inch rows is very different in different locations. In general the better the soil the less the difference. The further north or the later you plant you will see a bigger yield advantage in the narrower rows.
Also the results from side dressing fertilizer in beans at later stages is hit or miss as well. I can tell you this for a fact. Most of the time you will see little to zero gain over just adding some additional fertilizer pre-plant. Four gallons of 5-15-15 is such a small amount when sprayed over and acre you really do not get much of a bump. Take the cost of the 5-15-15 and add $7 for the cost to apply it. Take that amount of money an buy more pre-plant fertilizer as a dry product and you will see a better results the majority of the time.
Grid sampling has much the same results. IF you take the cost of doing the extra soil samples and the cost to apply the fertilizer in the grid, it rarely will beat just spending the same amount on additional fertilizer on the entire field.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
