Bean Report

Manitoba Pulse and Soybean Growers (MPSG) is giving a crop update in this week's Bean Report.

Laura Schmidt is an MPSG Production Specialist.

"Soybeans range from R6.5, which is beginning maturity, to R7, where there's at least one brown pod on the main stem. Some fields are rapidly approaching R8 or full maturity. The rains have helped fill pods and increase seed size in fields that were not mature when the rains fell. Once soybeans reach R7, they are considered safe from a fall frost."

Schmidt notes dry beans range from beginning to full maturity.

Field pea harvest is complete in most areas.

Faba bean harvest has also started.

Video: The Unveiling Of A Brand New Tractor! Brand New Caseih Magnum!!

Case IH invited us out to an event in Racine, Wisconsin, and it turned out to be an absolute trip of a lifetime! CaseIH is celebrating the 250th anniversary in style!! Very cool to be apart of this event!

We kicked things off with an incredible deep-dive into the rich history of Case IH and the legendary Magnum tractor lineup. From there, we got exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the official Case IH testing facility to see how these massive machines are pushed to their absolute limits.

But the real highlight came after the tour. We were transported to a location for the main event: the grand unveiling of a brand-new, completely custom, 1-of-1 tractor named "Providence."

A massive thank you to Case IH for inviting us out and letting us bring you guys along for the ride. This was an experience we won't ever forget!
