👍good job

[@gregrhodes8451]

Thanks Patrick!!! That was very interesting and I am like you, I thought the taller beans was gonna be better. God bless you and your family

[@PatrickShivers]

The pod count on the taller beans seemed insurmountable but the 53s must have averaged more beans per pod.

Hello from NC. Thanks for taking time to video and show us the activities on your farm. Enjoy your content. Hope you hve great success with your channel.

Patrick great job as usual. That is an unreal job anywhere. My friends in Iowa are jealous.

[@PatrickShivers]

Thanks for watching Chris!

Nice soybean crop Patrick💪

[@PatrickShivers]

Thanks Wayne!

Looking good brother. Definitely going to try some stuff next year. Planted wheat and raddish after corn on a farm this year for a cover crop before beans. Hit it with the ripper rolller before planting and see if we can push some indeterminate beans as well. Hopefully be a nice test plot for trying different products and seeing what we can do. Thanks for the content!

[@PatrickShivers]

Experimentation is the key. I try not to ever put all my eggs in the same basket. Different varieties, field preps, plant dates, seed rates, constant experimentation.

[@johngreer8101]

Some fine beans brother!

[@PatrickShivers]

Thanks John!

Asgro 1435 Used to be one of the better soybeans up here.
You will have to try V3 foliar feed based upon a sap test and then an R3. If not a little sooner Feed based upon plant test again but also pushing some potassium calcium and a touch of nitrogen.
To see if it doesn't take it to the next level?

[@PatrickShivers]

Thanks for the info

[@salt-team-six5883]

I am shocked on the 53vand 54, I would have bet the 54s were going to harvest a lot more over the 53

[@PatrickShivers]

I told the seed rep when filming the secrets to high soybean yields how much more the 54s were going to do and he shrugged and said “we’ll see.” He already knew.

Which fertilizers grade u used like Dia ammonium phosphate or single super phosphate etc
And what yield per acre

[@neeteshraghuwanshi9603]

What is the price of soyabean ? In your country per kg?
I’m from India

[@PatrickShivers]

@@neeteshraghuwanshi9603 they are currently $9 for 25.4 kilograms ( 1 bushel). This is an incredibly low price and it is projected to fall further. I got paid $12 a bushel for the beans in this video, which was recorded last year.

[@akshaykhiste9104]

What is the horizontal and vertical distance between each plant ?? Plz tell me

[@PatrickShivers]

36” between rows, 1-2” between plants in row.

[@akshaykhiste9104]

@@PatrickShivers so your plants population is around 110k to 115k per acre ?? Is that correct ?

[@PatrickShivers]

@@akshaykhiste9104 yes

[@user-ht8io3kz8b]

Patrick what you rowspace on soybeans

[@PatrickShivers]

36”

[@jimmystrain883]

Is that a 30ft header

[@PatrickShivers]

@@jimmystrain883 I believe it is. That is a custom harvesting crew that does my grain crops.

Filling up that piggy bank

[@PatrickShivers]

*trying to repay the bank

[@rufuslumpkin4112]

Is your combine driver contracted out or an employee of the farm?

[@PatrickShivers]

Will Foster’s combine, he’s got Noah running it.

[@colefletcher-ox7xd]

Did that soybean yield break the Clay County record?

[@PatrickShivers]

It is higher than every farmer I talked to, but by a slim margin. I was wanting 80 to be able to claim the undisputed record.

[@colefletcher-ox7xd]

@PatrickShivers dang maybee
you can get 80 bushel beans next year

[@pioneerpete8170]

We are almost ready for bean harvest here in southern Mexico , What kind of fertilization did you do on your beans ?

[@PatrickShivers]

@@pioneerpete8170 custom blend per soil sample recommendations in each field. Applied pre-plant and incorporated.

[@joesteel1261]

Patrick,which do you think is more profitable.Full season soybeans or double crop soybeans behind winter wheat?

[@mississippifarmer4301]

he is running thta reel way to low ,that's where your loss comes from

[@PatrickShivers]

You’re saying leave the cutter where it’s at and raise the reel some?

[@dberg1964]

That’s not what I saw. You have to run that low. Slow the reel to where it’s a fraction faster than ground speed.
I plant Channel beans here in Missouri. Carrollton Mo. No fert. Just steady rotation. 100 acres made 74bu. Drought year but got enough rain at the right time I guess. Beans 10 miles away with 2.5” of less rain only made 56. 😊

[@PatrickShivers]

@@dberg1964 Timing is everything. That’s a remarkable dry land yield. Was it a group 5 bean?

[@mississippifarmer4301]

53? you mean 5.3 maturity?

[@PatrickShivers]

The variety name is AG53, which is a 5.3 maturity.

[@sachwagh7829]

Means 5.3 month for maturity

[@sachwagh7829]

Which fertilizers grade u used like Dia ammonium phosphate or single super phosphate etc
And what yield per acre

[@PatrickShivers]

Fertilizer was custom blend per soil test. Broadcast pre-plant and incorporated. Yield per acre was in another video, I document the entire certification process. I think it was 76 bushels

[@sachwagh7829]

Which fertilizers grade u used like Dia ammonium phosphate or single super phosphate etc
And what yield per acre

[@PatrickShivers]

Fertilizer is custom blend per soil sample analysis. Yield per acre is in the video after that one. I show the entire process of certifying the yield (76 bushels/acre)

[@sachwagh7829]

[@PatrickShivers]

The yield per acre is in the video. I discuss it at length and even show how we measured it. My fertilizer is custom blend per soil sample analysis. Incorporated pre-plant.
