Bermuda Grass Crop

Photograph of planted May 2, 1955. 26 acre field of common bermuda grass established by planting 2 lobs of hulled bermuda grass seed with 100 lbs 10-20-10 fertilizer per acre in shallow furrows on a well prepared cultipacked seedbed (7-OH-B-3-III). Two months after seeding date, Mr. Mabry reports 26 head of 2 and 3 year-old white face cows are grazing this new bermuda planting at this date and it is carrying them. Mr. Mabry plans to overseed the field in the fall of 1955 with big hop clover. When the field is well established with underground root stolons he plans to overseed fall sown vetch and small grain to maintain soil fertility and for supplemental pasture. One ton of lime per acre was applied to improve legume growth.
