Seed in weed beds can assure a sound crop, while water pumping and exercise are noted. Potatoes remain staple and can be grown widely. Chicks need warmth to yield eggs later. Spring gardening is a key food source, with early Irish potato crops increasing yields per acre by tests from North Carolina. Rape should be drilled on plowed ground at eight pounds per acre, growing well in spring and rain, suitable for feed. can be seeded between corn rows and root cultivation for forage.
