Alfalfa Seed Load Brings Big Revenue in South Dakota
Joli Myers of Mitchell, South Dakota sold a single alfalfa seed load weighing about 5.93 pounds for 17 cents a pound, netting roughly $1,008.50 on 20 acres.

The field yielded 296 pounds per acre in 1911 for over $50 per acre, with soil fertility enhanced by alfalfa growth and minimal cultivation beyond discing.
