Bean prices & harvest question.
Farmer who rents my Mom's land in MN, SE of Willmar got his beans off back about the end of Sept. Others not so fortunate. Was down there Oct 27th again and there was maybe 1/2 the corn out at that time. Ground did not seem too bad and his wife was doing some fall tillage. So, that area not real wet.
I live & work in the Fargo, ND area and there are a few bean fields I drive past still not harvested. It had been wet in Oct. but not THAT wet around here I would think. Some beets got pulled 2 weeks ago that put mud on the road but no more than usual.
So, tonight while driving past those fields that now have about 2" snow on them and its supposed to be single digits at night Friday (freeze up the mud I would expect) I got to wondering if wet fields is the reason they are still there OR could it be that the farmer is so underwater on them vs bean prices they are letting them sit to rot or something?
