Can I plant soybeans year after year in the same plot and produce a healthy crop?

Derek,
The plot where Brad was standing when he talked about planting soybeans year after year has been in soybeans for seven years! I overseed them with the Broadside blend each August. That blend includes radishes, a forage wheat, a bulb producing brassica and a non bulb producing brassica.
This rotation provides great forage all summer, and soybean grain and fresh forage throughout the winter! This has been an excellent food plot program for me. I’ve never had problems with nematodes damaging the soybeans. This rotation is also a great plan to build/improve the soil! In addition the local herd knows what to expect and there’s no learning curve due to a new type of forage.
Enjoy creation,
grant
