Model Barn At Arlington Restoring Worn Soil Without Manures
The Arlington estate near Washington once worn by tile drainage and erosion is being rebuilt by the United States department of agriculture. The green manuring system uses rye and peas to restore humus and nitrogen, with rye plowed under and peas sown to enrich soil. The farm now produces hay and fruit trees, and will serve as a site for hortculture and plant breeding experiments testing new varieties and plants suited to the region.
