Plant Corn Later for Better 1917 Wheat Yields
In this 1917 regional note M S Shrock argues for delaying field corn planting until late May or early June to fit warm weather crops and improve overall yields. He cites Yamhill county wheat averages of 20-22 bushels per acre and Oregon winter and spring wheat averages of 22.9 and 18.1 respectively, recommending crop rotation and manure to boost yields, with a plan to plant corn next month on well manured ground, cultivate all summer, and sow wheat in early fall followed by clover the next spring.
