QDMA here in NY is trying something new. Many branches have roundup ready soybeans available.  My Upper Hudson River Valley branch has some available while they last for $10 per bag. You'd typically pay close to $80-100 normally.  Here's some of the hitch....

- bags are 50lb bags that will do about an acre with equipment.  otherwise 3/4 to half that if broadcasting by hand and doing a "poor man's plot".

- beans must be innoculated. innoculate is cheap and available at most all ag/farm/seed stores. it's just mixed in with the seed in whatever container prior to planting.- you've got to be a QDMA member. (even if you bought a one year membership and just one bag, the cost is still 50% of what they normally run)

- you've got to leave it standing to feed wildlife. it can't be harvested.  once beans are gone till it in, mow it, or whatever you need to do.

- pickup only for the most part. we have a location in washington county and one in rensselaer county (as Warren, Washington, Rensselaer, and Saratoga counties is our area we typically serve).

@Culvercreek hunt club i believe might have some as well for any of you out in western NY.

We do have some bags available as well. It should be picking up our shipment this week and have them available for pick up this weekend. Would be a Rush Henrietta pick up point. We are running a bit later than we wanted on this program becasue we were at the mercy of the shipping.
