In Nappan Nova Scotia Dr Warren of C D A Experimental Farm reports that barley yields rise with closer row spacing. Seven inch spacing yielded 2539 lb acre, three and a half inch spacing 2827, cross seeded area 3019. Two passes at proper depth can boost output but seed must not be buried. Fertility remains key to maintaining high barley yields.
