Irrigation boosts potato yield in farm trial and feedlot notes
Irrigated potatoes yielded nearly double the non irrigated crop with 15050 pounds versus 8050 pounds in a Tony Ackan farm trial. Other figures include soil lumps capillaries rot and mechanical damage, plus a note on irrigation saving equipment, seed and labor costs. Separately a Manitoba agricultural exhibit and farm progress days are announced with open houses for prospective students and the dairy swine and poultry industries featured. A Winnipeg case follows about a young mother assisted by the Children’s Aid Society to place her baby for adoption while obtaining prenatal care and financial support from the child’s father with ongoing social worker aid.
