Tells How To Prevent Seeding Of Blue Grass
Ohio farm ers can prevent blue grass pastures from seeding by adding nitrate of soda or ammonium sulphate to the soil. Agronomist D. R. Dodd of Ohio State University said the lack of soil nitrogen causes the grass to seed when plants are only inches high. He advised farmers unable to obtain nitrate mixtures to fence a portion of a wheat or oats field for pasture and Sow Sudan grass at 25 pounds per acre in May for July pasture.
