farming report by al wall rt ayricuaurat representative for york county r seurmarket after seedinj the next bis hurdle co ling up is hayio its just a month away and its worth some thought now when we visited don hart a woodstock last month we were a little startled with his comment that ail of the popular haying methods are too wasteful of both crop and labour to so along with this is serious criticism of our practice on just about 99t of york county farms he has a point though baling involves a lot of hand labour leaf losses ate real and serious weather amase can occur both be fore and after baling these problem j can be partly solved bate throw ers for instance can cut labour time by as mtich as 75 random piling in the barn can cut barn labour by about 50 it may not look nice and it takes more room brjt saving lab our is a big point bale throwers of course wont work on many farms because often it is not pos sible to bale and store at the same time one of the best answers to leaf loss and weather dam age is the use of the new mower conditioner swataers big windrows left on hih stubble are not hurt as much by rain the combination of three operations into one alio helps to cut leaf losses the big difficulty with these machines is that the investment can hardly be justified on a normal sized farm we can only hope that more of them will become available on a custom basis stocking also helps to reduced tosses moisture uptake of bales lying flat is double the amount of those stooked stooking can reduce losses by over fqlt and reduces loading lime by 30 all of these things just take a few of the bugs out of the baling system we w ill not have reached the ultimate until the baler is gracefully retired and re placed by a forage harves ter forage harvested haylage can be handled mechanic ally and the weather dam age factor is greatly re duced the same machine can be used to cut pasture mechanically which would be another step forward and the related equipment

mowat explains that as forage matures its digest ibility will drop from approximately so to 45tt for the latecut crop for example when alfalfa is cut t the recommended late bud stage it contains about 65 tdn seasonal yields of any matter wont be af fected when cut at this stage next to harvesting the most important factors affecting hay quality are rain damage and leaf loss leaves contain two to three times more protein than the stem and are generally much higher in tdn and carotene unfortunately legumes are particularly susceptible to leaf loss during handling this loss can be minimized however by raking when the forage is still tough that is before the leaves have had a chance to dry out an alternative a wind- rower while slowing down the rate of drying elimin ates these raking operations also reducing leaf loss rain damage often pre sents a major problem par ticularly with the first cut ting dr mowat continues however modern hay making equipment lessens the chances of rain damage by shortening time of field exposure conditioners can increase the speed of drying up to 50 and are a sound investment wagon or barn dryers also reduce the chance of rain damage pre servation of forage as hay lage also reduces time of color and odor are n- exposure direct indicators of quality c w austin l pa rn 3 xaward winning corn grower cf dfumbosayj atrazine65w the best thing that has happened to the corn business atracine is a gocd product to work with because it is so safe according to austin parnall who plants 600 acres of corn weve never had any damage with it in 65 we used atrarine with oil and sprayed around the middle ot june when tha weeds were up about an inch it burned off the weeds pretty fast and gave good control through to harvest with no culti vations stressing the safety of atrazine mr parnall reports weve never had any problem from residues when following treated coin with soybeans on my farm mr parnall goes en to say in the future we will not use oil with the atrazine because for the best results i believe atrazina should be used as soon after planting as possible early may for more moisture start using atrazine this year discover how
