Farming Equipment and Methods

Photograph of Field # 2, Series 7. Milo [i.e., sorghum] residues from plantings made on 5-11-67. These rows were fertilized with 200 pounds per year of 10-20-10 fertilizer (1st 4 rows left to right) and 400 pounds per year for the next two rows and 200 pounds per year for the next two rows. These rows were side-dressed with 50 pounds of 33-0-0 in 6-67 on all of two rows and two rows half way. On 3-25-68 a native grass mixture (Vinita harvest) was interseeded, hand broadcast and hand-raked to cover. The east half of these rows were broadcast fertilized with 200 pounds of 33-0-0 per year and the west half with 200 pounds of 10-20-10 per year. OK-3013-12.

Farming Equipment and Methods

Photograph of Field # 9 with hay mulch applied on 4-1-68. This 0.8 acre area was first seeded to a mixture of native grasses assembled by the Manhattan Plant Materials Center. It was then mulched with prairie hay at 3 tons per acre. This was anchored with an IMCO disc treader (mulch tiller) pulled from a farm row tractor. Note the water standing where tractor tires force the parched water table to the surface. 250 pound 10-20-10 fertilizer top-dressed immediately after mulching. OK-3013-16.
