This year my biggest struggle with getting my corn to grow was keeping the weeds in check. I bought round-up ready soybeans and a cheaper grade corn seed-$130 bushel. The soybean field was much easier to maintain, the corn however was restricted by weeds that grew even after I had sprayed, plowed and sprayed again then planted corn. I spent more in herbicides than I would have had I bought the round-up ready corn and round-up.
