Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alfalfa: Growing for Seed and Hay According to the accompanying map, which was compiled from data secured from the census of 1899, the general distribution of the large alfalfa growing sections is indicated. Each dot represents one thousand acres in the county where the dot is located. For this reason, only the large alfalfa producing sections are dotted, as counties having less than one thousand acres are not marked. Fig. 1. - Map of the United States, showing the distribution of alfalfa in 1899. (westgate - Farmers' Bul. 339. U. S. Dept. Agriculture.) In the irrigated sections of the West, the production of alfalfa has greatly increased, especially where new areas have been thrown Open to-irrigation. The extension of alfalfa in the eastern half of the country has been so great that there is probably three times as much alfalfa being grown as there was ten years ago. Its rapid extension in the Great Plains region is indicated by the fact that in Kansas the assessors' reports in 1891, when alfalfa was first listed separately, showed acres, while in 1907 there were acres reported. Advance reports for the Fall of 1909 indicate ap proximately acres in Kansas for the year 1909. In the arid regions of the western half of the country, on the areas which have been brought under cultivation in the last ten years, alfalfa has been extensively planted._ In the eastern half of the country the limestone sections ofier the best prospects for the successful production of alfalfa. The limestone regions around Lake Champlain, and in Central New York are producing successful results. The limestone valleys of Maryland and Virginia, and the black prairie soils of Alabama and Mississippi are also proving adapted to alfalfa and offer good possibilities for farmers who are acquainted with the production of alfalfa in the West. The Eastern States call for a large amount of alfalfa seed from the West, and the chances of success with alfalfa in the East increase greatly as the special requirements for its production are understood and provided for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alfalfa in Kansas: Report of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture for the Quarter Ending June, 1916 Because of diverse opinions and experiences such as these the progress of alfalfa was slow in the years immediately following its introduction. Skepticism, however, was banished and mistaken beliefs rectified as the merits of the plant became better known through more extensive and intimate acquaintance. Those who early recognized its value persistently urged its growing, and their estimates of its worth have been more than justified by subsequent events.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation of Alfalfa in Imperial Valley Seeding - Alfalfa can be satisfactorily broadcasted or seeded with a drill. Experiments have so far indicated that drilling is the prefer able practice, if the seed is not planted too deeply (not deeper than one-half inch in heavy soils, or one and one-half inches in light soil). Some remove the seed tubes from behind the drill discs in order to pre vent this deep seeding, especially where the land is to be irrigated immediately after planting. October is considered the best month for planting, although alfalfa can be successfully sown at almost any time between October 1 and April 15. The heavy content of silt in the irrigation water during periods in the fall is the greatest Objection to fall planting, while the heavy Winds often cause much trouble in the Spring.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economical Irrigation of Alfalfa in Sacramento Valley The total depths of 30, 36, 48, and 60 inches were given in indi vidual applications of inches, 9 inches, 12 inches, and 15 inches, respectively. In 1910, 1912, and 1913, following winters of low rain fall, the first irrigations were given immediately after the first cuttings, but in 1911, 1914, and 1915, following relatively wet winters, irrigation began after the second cutting. All of the plats were large enough to represent normal field practice, so the work should be classed as field experiments rather than laboratory experiments. Irrigation water was supplied from a pumping plant On the tract delivering approximately cubic foot per second.

Download or read book Alfalfa Farming in America Classic Reprint written by Joseph E. Wing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alfalfa Farming in America At that time no one knew anything about soil in'oc ulation and the behavior of alfalfa was a profound mystery. It now occurs to the writer to explain the curious behavior of the alfalfa in this manner: up the canyon a mile or two was an established alfalfa field, not a good stand, but thrifty. When this field was irrigated the surplus water flowed on down to the lower field and went over that. It seems clear now that in this manner the bacteria were intro duced from the established field to the new one. As long as the writer had connection with this ranch, some twelve years, this field continued to produce heavy mom of alfalfa, though not so wonderfully rank as the earlier growths. Doubtless the excessive irrigation leached away some fertility, and the con tinual removal of hay without returning any manure or fertilizer told, even on that very deep and per vious soil. However, the last crops that the writer remembers growing on this field could hardly have been less than 5 tons to the acre.
