Sericea Lespedeza Good Soil Builder
COLLEGE STATION Raleigh August 20 Sericea lespedeza is a top soil building crop and yields decent hay when timed right. Dan Stubbs Jr of Granite Falls Caldwell county started a soil program with sericea and now farms about 300 acres selling seed as county agent Max Culp notes. Blue grass intrusion in some fields prompts grazing with sheep per Culp though the crop aids soil. Wake county hospital in Raleigh also includes sericea in its soil program with very poor soils improving under Farm Superintendent L O Page reporting excellent results.
