Central IL
I also dislike the seed count bags of beans. My seed supplier moved to 140K count bags last year. If I don't change my seeding rate it increased the number of bags I purchased by 20%. Therefore, my seed bean input cost increased by 20%. Also, big M got 20% more tech fees. I ended up poorer.

Really, I don't care how it's packaged, but it really irritated me that this large of a price increase was hidden in the sales pitch that I could calculate my purchase quantities more accurately. I didn't realize how dumb they think we are.
