A Pleasant Surprise

We had a pretty productive day today, shelling 20 acres of corn before switching over and running almost 50 acres of beans after first-cutting hay and double crop beans after wheat.  The pleasant surprise was that the beans after hay made about 35 bushels per acre and the double crop made about 28.  Approximately 1400 bushels at $11.59 isn't anything to sneeze at.  Besides that, the second-crop beans outyielded our single-crop beans on the droughty gravel ground.  Not too shabby.
