Q.Soybean Production

Can I double-crop soybeans after winter wheat?

A.

Yes, double-cropping soybeans after wheat is standard practice across the Mid-South and Mid-Atlantic. Plant short-season soybeans (MG 4-5 in the Mid-South) immediately after wheat harvest in late June-early July. Yields are 60-70% of full-season beans but stack income on the same acres.

Crop calendar pages cover wheat and soybean timing for double-cropping.
