Better Grass From Plowing

Photograph of a bermuda pasture root planted in three foot rows eight or ten years ago by the farmer. The section on the right was plowed last spring but not mowed. The grass is heavier where the plowing was done, although weeds are larger. The pasture is to be mowed next spring and progress pictures are to be made to show the grass growth.
