Looked in the archives and found just a couple of references to bees utilizing soybeans.  Bob Harrison commented that he believes that he has gotten a surpluse on soybeans and that the yield was increased because of bee pollination.  Has there been any recent studies concerning this?  Has anyone had any experience with honey yields seemingly from soybeans?  Reason for the questions, I have a field of about twenty-four acres densely planted in soybeans, rows about four inches apart as apposed to about eighteen inches that I've always seen before.
