Soybeans Popular Choice For Foodgrains Bank Projects

 
Manitoba Rep Harold Penner expects to see about 40 grow projects in the province this year, most of which have already been seeded.
 
He says many of the fields will share a common crop.
 
"It's amazing how many acres of soybeans we have. Soybeans are making up at least a third of the total acreage this year and then there's wheat and canola and then a variety of other smaller acreage crops."

Video: Crop duster agplane flying action Conger Minnesota Air Tractor Bell 206 Jet Ranger Airailimages

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.
