The Midwest Dry Bean Coalition recently elected new officers for 2024 to lead the new organization. The group aims to advocate and help identify better markets for dry bean producers.
North Dakota farmers had harvested 77% of their dry edible beans as of the week ending Oct. 2, 2022, and in Minnesota 76% of the state's edible beans had been combined as of that date, the U.S. Agricultural Department National Agricultural Statistics Service said.
