- I am man enough to admit if/when I am wrong! Join me for today's up to the minute update from our new Missouri farm as we saw our first velvet bucks from our home, and we'll get an up to the minute update on our 'alleged' Roundup ready soybeans. Abouut 3 weeks ago I decided to do a late hail Mary food plot planting of soybeans on our new Missouri farm. It was late in the spring and when I went to purchase true Roundup ready soybeans everyone was OUT OF STOCK! So I found an incoming batch of Laredo forage hay soybeans at the local MFA (Missouri Farm Association I believe). So i reserved 18 bags of the soybeans and they assured me that they were in fact roundup ready soybeans. So I rented a drill and drilled about 14 acres of the Laredo forage soybeans. Then a few weeks later I hit them with Glyphosate, and well, today you will see the near live update of the results. Now, there is a lot of good news in this video episode, as all was not lost! Thanks for joining me today and if you enjoyed today's video please hit the like button and consider subscribing to join us for all of our new land, life and land management adventures from our new Missouri farm.

Daing! Sounded like Sharron was jacking one in the chamber when she filmed the velvet bucks! Nice racks by the way. You only need enough beans to let the bucks know you’re feeding them high protein food throughout the winter.
Yeah I say it was still a win! Can't wait for fall plots and more cameras!!
Maybe those beans will do well with the grass. If it does you maybe able to just drill beans without worrying about hay grasses stunting them. Have them cut hay and then drill beans after.
Well we kind of did that as they cut the hay before the beans came up in most spots. Them beans are actually doing pretty well though even mixed with the hay so I am hopeful we'll still have beans!!
Interesting video 👍 as some others have said plant the beans direct even in a hay crop and they will survive also turnips can be sown directly into grass after mowing and will grow well but I'm just saying what has been done successfully over here 🏴👍
Glad you were able to get a refund. Im sure you will recover and have some beautiful fall plots. My local place got me when I was younger on the hutcheson variety told me they were a forage bean and roundup ready like a cheap eagle seed bean. Wasnt until i posted on a forum and found out none of that was true.
I am very happy with the refund. And now I still have some beans growing so I call it a win. They are actually doing well the acres that are left. Thanks
When you fertilize your hay put red clover seed in your fertilizer if you
have red clover you will have deer
Great call! Phil just did that with his hay fields!!
Kapper,think about turnips radish rape for your fall plots. Use no till drill .Plant august 15 ,drill wheat Sept 20. The Wheat will stay green all winter and next spring
Oh I am a fall plot junKie! I plant many different fall plots! I don't think I'll be able to no till though as the 'rent' drill will be hard to get. So I'll have to work them up, at least until some time when I finally get a drill. Thanks
I still buy leftover corn and beans. The beans I pay $25-$50 for a 50# bag of rr, and $50-$100 for rr corn. Price depends on test year.
Yep I agree save you lots of cash! Good call!
Good update! That's too bad the soy beans were not R.R. and got toasted. At least you got a refund and some plots are doing okay that didn't get sprayed.
Yes the full refund was a nice bonus! Thanks
Biologic non typical clover is great Kapp, reliable deer food and easy to maintain each season. Deer love it
Roger that! I will be putting in new clover plots this fall with my fall blends too! Thanks
The dealer returned your seed investment but your fuel, your labor and your equipment rent (drill) are a loss.
I'm sure you know glysophate damage tends to show up mostly after a good, soaking rain.
I hope you can find a more reliable source of seed before your next round of planting.
When dad saved soybean seed from the previous year mom would always plant a flat of 100 bean seed for dad, to find out what the germination rate was.
I guess you could do that and once they were at the appropriate growth stage spray and see what happened. That would probably take a couple weeks. Of course you were in a rush so the gamble this time may have been worth the risk.
In the 1990s we noticed the local seed sales outfits began to have production companies pick up leftover seed not too long after planting season ended. We wanted some corn seed to replant in July in a bare spot that drowned out due to standing water. No one had any leftovers or even open/spilled bags. That was new to us. We'd always been able to get a few bags that some other farmer returned late. That change coincided with the big jump in seed prices after we began to be required to sign a binding contract with Monsanto to be able to purchase their roundup ready seed. Do you have to sign one of those contracts to purchase for deer plots?
Chemical companies basically have every legal contingency covered. The farmer can be sued if those beans don't go to the grain elevator to be ground into feed. I'm not sure how farmers that store their beans on farm to grind for livestock rations are able to get their blessing.
Before the ironclad contracts we saved our own soybean and wheat seed. We can still save wheat seed we produced, but not corn or soybeans. Back when Monsanto owned the patent the contract stipulated their traveling crew of field reps could enter our property to inspect any GMO corn, cotton or soy we grew from their seed. We caught them in our fields every year. They were always friendly and complimentary, but there was no doubt what their mission was. They counted the population of plants per field, and used satellite data to find the acreage in each of our fields. With a little math they could calculate if we had planted all the seed we bought. It felt a bit invasive.
The "field reps" traveled in pairs and usually used the friendly cop/grumpy cop approach with farmers they encountered.
I don't see it as a loss at all. I'm glad I did not spray them all. The ones I did not are actually doing good in some areas. I now have proper liquid fertilizer so the time and fuel were still worth it. In IL for corn seed I had to sign a card but not in MO at least not yet. I'm preparing the ground either way for large fall plots soon. Thanks
😊
Bummer. You live and you learn.
Yep but I am happy overall. The beans I have left are doing well in the spots I had burned down already and even the ones in the hay are going OK. So I'll take that bonus!
That 8 will be a nice deer in 2-3 years
I am looking forward to pulling the few trail cam cards I have out and setting out 20 new ones!! Ugghh...
Bummer about the beans even if they only grow a little will the deer still eat them ? Might give you a chance to get an idea what the herd looks like .
I say it was a nice win for me. The beans that I did not spray are actually doing pretty well so far! I have to fertilize them soon too. Thanks
Well, file a claim on your federal crop insurance plan, total failure.... 😢😮
Sucks, but at least they squared up the problem
I take this as a big win. I was prepared to have to do battle with them to settle it but I was very happy with the refund.
THEY don't look like tiny bucks to me.
Well we haven't seen the big ones yet. She said there were 3 more in the background could have been the big boys. At this time of year the bucks hang around in groups until they shed their antler velvet.
My advice was FREE also. So if you got your money back for the NON RR beans you came out again with that unbelievable Kapper Luck!! SMH…. You can MOW over the top of hay beans to knock back the grass and weeds. They’ll grow back just fine!!
Anything free is worth savin up for!! My uncle Alfonz used to say!!
@@KapperOutdoors2.0 just might behoove you if you’d listen to your uncle Alfonse and to ME every once in awhile intend of being so darn hard headed!! smh/lol
I have over 20 bucks that would put yours to shame
I'm sure you do but thing will improve I guarantee it!
I'M SORRY U GOT TRUMPED, THATS LIKE THIER POLITICS WHO WOULD MOVE TO THAT STATE
ha ha not at all. I am glad I did it and the beans I do have left are doing well!
