Ducks in Wusar Experiments Prove Drilling Increases Wheat Yield

Experiments show drilling and rolling wheat boosts crop yield, especially in windy seasons, often more than doubling yield on treated fields compared to untreated ones on the same land. In average years, yield could rise by five bushels per acre across crops including oats. Drills are urged for general use, despite high machine costs.
