These are last years beans just ready for second post emerge app of roundup..!

In theforeground, is that a control strip to check for effect, why no application in that area?

My uncle would not apply a strip right down the middle of a field just to make sure thanks were working!

Using chemicals and planting only corn and soy for your deer plots may get you a good seasonal burst on deer activity. Food plots that are managed without chemicals and just occassional disc and bushhog will give you a much longer season on a wider variety of wildlife ,such as, fowl,rabbit,etc. A less managed approach will save you dollars and actually give you a healthier eco system and healthier soil over the long run.

I'm not sure what you mean ..? Are you talking about the headland at the end of the field where the rows cross over the headland rows and looks solid seeded ???? If so it's all beans , nothing is missed .
