Study Seed Law Before Selling Seed in Iowa
Hardin county growers who plan to sell seed should know their responsibilities under the Iowa Seed Law, says county extension director Dick Pulse. L. BE. Everson of Iowa State College seed laboratory recommends obtaining a copy of the Iowa Seed Law from the Iowa Department of Agriculture, Des Moines. When seed is tested, a seed lot report summarizes labeling requirements and the grower’s duties whether selling on farm, off farm, or to a dealer. Seed sold on farm by the grower is exempt from detailed labeling.

Save a Penny, Lose a Dollar on Fertilizer Use
The Middle West Soil Improvement Committee cites University of Illinois economist R M Finley that skimping on fertilizer can reduce yields and profits. Fertilizer remains a low-cost farm input with fertilizer costs rising far slower than other items. The group notes fertilizer boosts per acre yields and lowers production costs amid deflated prices and high input costs, urging continued fertilizer use.
