Computer model shows how crop rotation combats pests

2014-06-17 15:37:49 TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY JULIETTE MICHEL, US-FARM-COMMODITY-FOCUS (FILES) Andrew Isaacson drives a tractor in a corn field at the Little Bohemia Creek farm in this June 17, 2014, file photo, in Warwick, Maryland. US corn and soybean crops could break records in 2014, but for farmers the bounty has a dark side: falling prices and a logistics nightmare getting crops to market. "It is not an exact science but when we look at the fields, it looks like it is going to be a big crop," said John Reifsteck, a corn and soybean farmer in Champaign, Illinois, a Midwest "farm belt" state. The US Department of Agriculture has forecast record crops this year for corn and soybeans, the two largest US crops in terms of production. Unless there is a devastating freeze or torrential rains before the harvest ends, corn production is projected at 366 million tonnes and soybean's at 106.5 million tonnes.
