Soil Conservation Scenes Highlight Henry County Practices
June 17 photograph at Robert Vandersnick farm Marion township shows Stan Christie of the Henry County soil conservation district amid Lincoln strain bromegrass and alfalfa. The crop, seeded with oats as nurse crop, will yield seed in late July. The district promotes bromegrass for soil protection and forage. A nearby pond project on the Vandersnick farm created a one acre water area with a 17 foot depth, fed by a tank, and a 13 acre watershed sodded with bromegrass and alfalfa to curb erosion. Additional ponds and renovations across several townships are noted as ongoing district projects.
