Iowa Farmers urged to triple potato yield using whole seed
Government expert Eugene Grubb tells Iowa State College officials that planting whole potatoes rather than cut sections can raise yields from 100 to 300 bushels per acre. European practice uses far more seed per acre, enabling 350 to 600 bushels per acre, with potential profits despite higher land costs. Iowa hogs and cattle reach new price highs at St Louis, and the state eyes corn leadership with a large upcoming show at Ames.
