I have a 3 acre and a just under 2 acre plot of ag beans that I planted in Central Wisconsin that has been e-fenced with minimal success. When I first set up the fence I did not have enough fiberglass poles so there were low spots and the deer were able to get in. Since then, it has been a continual struggle to keep the deer out.
The plants are all browsed but still growing and well leafed out. My question is how much browse can beans handle to the point where they still produce pods? The beans are growing but not fully canopied. I already broadcasted brassicas in the field, particularly in the areas with heavy browse but I am real curious if I will end up with any pods or not?
I would have thought I would see more flowers in the beans by now but since I do not live on the property it is tough to tell exactly whats happening with them. For those in WI, when do you beans usually flower and when do you generally start to see pod production? Thanks for the help!
