Default RE: Any Suggestions on Soybean Varieties?

4 is a full season, 3 usually goes in after wheat, long season gives you longer season for deer to feed , if you put in a schedule 3 put it in later like 4th of July area, When soybeans are labeled like corn the length of growing season is in the numbers , like 4702 and 4800 are your longest beans, 3902 38-52 are shorteer season. corn is the same way add 55 to your first 2 numbers and that will give you the length of your growing season in days. e.g. 63-08 is 118 day growing season.. Remember the longer the growing season the better the yield....... We just harvested 1600 acres corn that was planted in April and May, with great yields. Now we are working on the full season beans...... 2000 acres Schedule 4's then about the same of beans after wheat which wont yield as much due to a shorter growing season....
