"iThis refrtarkable bean is earn
ing well its nickname "the won
der crop". And Tar Heel farm
ers are finding out it's a Jot
more than 'a soil conditioner.
Last; year, farm income from
ioybefe -in the state was more
than $20 million. Production
was about. 9.6 million bushels,
ahd onlv a million staved on the
term for use in enriching thej

Five million bushels were sold
for export, two million toi pro

"North Carolina is one olf the
top producing states in ( the
Southeast." savs George bipain.
He's a field croos specialist At
N. C. State College. "We're
coming up fast; but we're t far
being (the top state in acrewge,
which is Illinois with five milJ ion
acres." ;y: j
Indiana, Minnesota, Iowa tind
Arkansas put about 2.3 million
acres in soybeans, , while Missis
sippi and Ohio are over a rciil

Spain says the farmer has t to
shoot for above-average yields
to make a decent profit on soy
beans. "If a farmer can get
30 to. 32 bushels per acre, at ($2
a bushel he'll average $38 i n
profit per acre," he says. "There
are not allotments on soybeans,
and the crop is fully mechanizeql.
He shouldn't have to spend more
than eight and a half hours perj
acre.
The state average yield last
year was 22 bushels, per Sere.
That's a, long way from the rec
ord set in a five-county contest
around New Bern: . 38.3 bushels
(60 pounds to the bushel).
"There are several certified
yields f 50 bushels per acre
in the state," says Spain. "We've
got a '50-bushet soybean kib' to
emphasize the practices needed
for efficient production' of soy
beans, encourage top quality land
to help fanners utilize the crop
to its maximum potential."
' Membership awards go to out
standing .producers; '
Beaufort County has ie big
gest acreage 4O50' in soy
beans. Two; producers ' there
have more than 5O0O. acres A
in the beans. . But the soybean
isn't exclusively a Coastal Main
crop mountainous Burte County
has more than 2,000 acres in the

There are 45 counties in the
state with more than 1,000
acres in production, 2-of them
with more than 5,000 acres. .
