Increased Winter Wheat Acreage Predicted by Halton Farmers
Halton County farmers plan to sow more winter wheat this coming month, citing the 1951 hay and spring grain labour shortage as a cause for late plowing. The 1932 crop yielded better overall due to less Hessian Fly damage, though yields varied widely across fields. Farmers stress seed bed preparation, germination checks, smut prevention, registered seed such as Cornell, and soil fertilizer use with fall sowing to avoid Hessian Fly and ensure a healthy top growth by early autumn.
