Farming Equipment and Methods
Photograph of Clarence E. Bunch, Soil Conservation Service technician (left) and Harry Newer (right), Soil Conservation Supervisor examine some of the cured weeping lovegrass hay that is being baled from windrows on a 2 ½ acre field planted 14 ½ months ago. On June 15 it yielded 350 pounds of reclaimed seed valued at $3.50 to $4.00 per acre. Forty-five days after the grass was cut with a binder for seed it yielded 10 [number unclear], sixty-five pound bales of hay. Total value of yield from planter to date is about $1200 or $600 per acre.** He [Mr. Newer?] planted lovegrass March 27, 1944 after his wife asked him to “sow that field [with] something that will keep the dust out of the house.” He plans to plant an additional 8 or 10 acres of lovegrass next year. OK-9042.
