Cooperation between seeding and companion crops in Hardin county
Hardin county plans to balance seeding and companion crops this spring to optimize legume support. Extension director Dick Pulse notes seedling growth and sowing rates affect establishment while companion crops compete for moisture and nutrients yet provide income in the seedling year, erosion control, and weed suppression. Experimental guidance from Iowa State and agronomist Jrenzing suggests 20 pounds of nitrogen with oats drilled 7 to 14 inches apart, and spacing not exceeding 10 inches where weeds are a problem to aid seedling stands.

Pasture Guidance Conflicts in Companion Crop Care
Pulse advises against close grazing and turning livestock into a newly seeded companion crop when the ground is too wet. Heavy pasturing can remove companion crops evenly and quickly, but excessive grazing is discouraged.
Treat Inoculate Seed to Help Get Good Legume Stand
Iowa State College agronomist R. A. Krenlein notes seed treatment with chemicals like Arasia and Spergon increases legume stand and uniformity. Legumes rely on specific bacteria for growth. inoculation boosts soil nitrogen, supports faster grass growth, and improves drought and weed tolerance. Different legumes require different inoculants, so the correct type is essential.

Eggs cheaper now than many foods says extension economist
Francis Kutish of Town State college notes eggs cost less per dozen despite higher production costs. Winter yields help. breeding stock housing and feeds raise expenses, but per dozen costs drop with higher efficiency. He projects continued lay-rate gains and little progress in cutting marketing costs. farmer share remains about 72 cents per consumer dollar.
