I decided to plant some soybeans this year...i checked on the forums and got a lot of good info...what i found out that the best method is to plant a lot to allow for early deer grazing on smaller plots...farmers probably go with about 140 to 150k seeds per acre but it was suggested to plant 200 to even 300k per acre on smaller plots, especially if broadcasting them as i did...i'm pretty sure that i'm glad i did...i planted about 244k per acre on a 2.5 acre plot the 9th of june...i went up back to check on them last night...they have popped up and are about 2 to 3" tall...there were 11 deer in that 2.5 acre plot! thats the most deer i've seen in 1 small field around here since the hayday PA deer populations of the 70's!...i just hope enough beans make it through for the deer to re-hit them during archery season...you wouldn't think that they could eat 610,000 beans! :)
