The author rebuts claims that drought years ruined soil by “soil mining” and cites Rothamsted data showing Broadbalk field yielded 26.5 bushels per acre in 1942 after 99 years of wheat without manure. He argues proper land care can sustain good prairie wheat crops indefinitely, preventing soil erosion and water damage.
