Pletts Farm Cut Corn Use To A Frugal System
A farmer avoids owning a plow for years buying small corn lots for 1.67 dollars. He ships 300 bushels at a time from Lake City, uses timber-built granary, and foregoes artificial insemination. Calves arrive in February and March, 27 new calves in 28 days, reducing winter grain feeding. Pasturing on lush alfalfa-brome keeps herd lean, with cows fed four pounds daily.
