Hocking County Receives Wheat Cleaning Equipment
Hocking County will place into operation a Sidney grain cleaner and a Calkins Sturvey Treater to clean and coat seed wheat against smut. The devices, purchased by the Hocking County Farm Bureau Cooperative, will keep farmers from transporting seed outside the county and aim to improve yields under acreage allotments. Smut endangers wheat used for food, and treated seed is crucial to prevent contamination.
