Abstract
Farmers are continually searching for a third crop to complement the corn-soybean rotation. Field peas can be substituted for most of the soybean meal in swine rations and is more economical than soybean meal, so there is a large potential market for field peas in Iowa. Field peas are a short-season crop, which makes double cropping a potential possibility.
