Photograph of the harvesting of a mung bean crop planted at 20 pounds per acre on June 1, 1943. Farm planner Harold Welch (left) and Earl Tucker (right) farm owner, examine the crop. One field yielded 400 pounds per acre and the average yield on the entire 30 acres ranges from 312 to 315 pounds per acre. The beans followed a barley crop destroyed by green bugs and Tucker says he will follow the beans with wheat for pasture. “I have heard much about the soil-improving qualities of mung beans,” he said, “and I hope to work out a rotation with wheat.” The beans are selling at 5 cents per pound.
