Budget Your Garden as You Budget Your Home
A Rutgers extension article by Prof. C I Nissley outlines budgeting for a vegetable garden as a path to inexpensive food and health. It cites a 25x50 foot plot costing about five dollars with potential returns near twenty dollars, and a 10x50 foot plot costing ten dollars yielding about forty dollars. It emphasizes soil suitability, soil preparation, manure, lime, and balanced fertilizer to maximize yields, using records from 500 gardens to illustrate typical results and the value of careful management.
