J C Wooley of Gomez credits four and a half inches of rain soaking into 100 acres of dryland with the help of Great Plains Contract practices. Terraces and sorghum stubble reduce runoff while planting rye, black eye peas and Chinese reds as soil builders improves moisture retention. Duane Moss of the Soil Conservation Service highlights local conservation efforts and the need for more county work.
