2 game days later, it happened again!
I am not talking about just the settlement info, but the entire plants are being deleted. I am at 74% on build limit, nothing too fancy and total of 11 people here.
I should point out that I am using the Beta patch..
the only other weird thing is Codsworth has been assigned guard duty, but he just hovers over the same spot behind yellow house where my crops are located. I have replanted there again and to the south to see if it appears related. My bartender also will join him there just standing for hours..
also, my wires will just disappear. but all wired stuff still functions!
