bean field

Where pods grow

A bean field is an agricultural area planted with beans—soybeans, green beans, navy beans, or other legume crops.

The term appears in farming contexts and rural descriptions: We drove past miles of bean fields in Iowa.

Bean fields figure in discussions of crop rotation since legumes fix nitrogen in soil.
