Wet April Prediction Holds Up
Frank D. Miller reports the wet part of the April forecast has occurred while the warm portion lags. Analysis of Warrenton rainfall 1960 1970 suggests one inch irrigation could raise yields. Sanborn Field corn rose from 103 to 177 bu per acre with two irrigations in 1971. Audrain County farmers Paul Veale and Gene Shellabarger shared irrigation experiences at county soil and crops conferences, noting profits with proper management despite some drawbacks.
