A southeast Minnesota farmer will be planting more soybeans
this year and says it has nothing to do with price.
Sam Peterson farms with his family near Northfield, where a tornado September 20th destroyed much of their operation.
“And (the storm) pretty much laid all our corn flat, so we lost a lot of yield. Probably left 30, 40 bushel out in the field. It definitely made harvest slow.”
He tells Brownfield soybeans will have to be a bigger part of the rotation this year to account for corn lost in the fall.
