Tennessee bean acreage expands with mechanized harvest
Tennessee farmers push soybean and bean production higher across West Tennessee and the Cumberland Plateau as mechanization boosts picking. Gambill notes continued expansion and compares Tennessee yields favorably with other states, while NC predicts a bumper apple crop amid favorable 1965 conditions. North Carolina’s Melvin Kolbe cites a 132 million bushel national apple crop estimate with NC at about 5.2 million, up from last year. Pig weaning advances in North Carolina improve survival and growth, with Dr. A J Clawson citing earlier weaning and benefits of milk substitutes for 15 to 20 pound pigs and reduced sow lactation demands. Continuous care and proper housing are required for early weaned pigs.
