Record Tonnage Of Lime Spread On Iowa Farms
MOIRES AP The largest tonnage of lime ever spread over Iowa farm lands was used last year. At least two and a half million tons of lime was spread in Iowa in 1946. The PMA and its predecessor the Agricultural Adjustment Agency have aided lime spreading since 1938. The federal government pays about $1 a ton while the farmer bears 40 to 50 cents a ton for applying the lime. Hazen urges 6,000,000 tons annually for ten years to restore soil fertility.
