Double Crop Soybeans in WI May be A Gamble Worth Taking in 2021

By Shawn P Conley 

The Wisconsin winter wheat crop remains 10 days to 2 weeks (developmentally) ahead of where we were at this time last year. If this progress continues we can realistically be cutting dry wheat in southern WI by July 4th. Couple that with Nov. CBOT soybean contracts at $13.93 (6/14/21) and though still risky we can start to pencil out a potential profit for WI growers to double crop soybeans in 2021.

It's summertime in Minnesota as a yellow Air Tractor agricultural application aircraft -- a crop duster -- responds to the control inputs of its pilot in a low-altitude dance just above the tops of the cornstalks. Enjoy! And we found a Bell 206 Long Ranger spray helicopter perched on a support truck at the edge of the cornfields, and launching from there. In our video, you can occasionally hear the rotor sounds of the crop-dusting helicopter as we see the yellow Air Tractor in a nearby field.
