heat and moisture for ideal growing conditions With a little luck all crops will get on schedule As usual some problems are showing up We are having some damage in spring grain Nematodes are back with us too and Wheat Mosaic affected several wheat fields The most general problem has been poor color hi grain and early corn The cause is near ly always a shortage of Natural nit rogen will not release for use by the plant if the soil is too cold too wet or both Most of these crops have straightened away now and good grow ing conditions should help the insect and disease problems too There is no satisfactory control for insects i grain crops They nearly all work underground and cant be sprayed Seed Treatment fertilizer and best of all good weather will minimize the damage All the effort now should be directed against another formidable crop enemy weeds For corn oil should now be added to sprays Timing is crucial for corn or any other crop Poor weed kills are most often caused by the spray going on too late The handling of hay and pasture crops con tinues to change In pasture the trend is to ma chine harvesting and in hay silo storage is grad ually taking over Here arc three points often stressed the research men at OAC that I think arc relevant Pasture yields increase by over per cent with machine harvesting compared to natural grazing Total yield of hay for the full season is greatest when the first crop is cut at the late bud to early flower stage On the best moisture content for storing silage the best answer seems to be to avoid the extremes With high moisture grass silage storage losses are high and there is an odour problem With moisture at the low end of the scale as it is in baled hay field losses are high and feeding efficiency is lowered The best mois
