New Need for Conservation Practices Told
Grundy county conservationist Joe Barkley of the U S Soil Conservation Service urges broader conservation practices to curb soil and water losses from heavy rains. He lists grasses and legumes for erosion control, terraces with outlets, and practices like minimum tillage and contour farming as key methods. He notes soil structure, organic matter, and sod crops boost water intake and yields while reducing costs on worn land.
