I am thinking about planting a few acres of wheat after corn harvest. A windstorm broke off about 30% of the stalks, so I'm worried about volunteer corn coming up next spring. Will this be a problem? Do I need to get RR wheat seed so if it's a problem I can spray with roundup and kill it? Here is the rest of my silly idea. I read an article several years ago, and want to try it. Plant wheat normally. In late April or May, get a fertilizer buggy and use it to broadcast soybeans seed in the wheat. The beans will start to grow, but being shaded by the wheat, they won't get very tall. When combining the wheat, leave the chopper on the combine and cut just above the tops of the beans. When the wheat is cut, beans get the sunlight and take off. Too far north to plant beans after wheat normally, would like to see if it works. I have no need for straw, or a place to store it. Any thoughts? Chris
