County Agent Urges Early Fertilizing and Culling for 1962
County Agent Robert E. Stansfield Jr notes light snow, eyed grazing in eight weeks. He advises soil testing, targeted nitrogen and 10-10-10 fertilizer, phosphorus and potassium needs, and 600 pounds of 0-15-30 for alfalfa maintenance. He urges culling low producers as feed costs rise and milk prices fall, and praises Frederick County dairymen while calling for increased per cow production. He highlights 1961 regional production figures and honors top herds, sets Feb 15 as cost share signup deadline, and announces a Livestock Producers Meeting February 28 at Walkersville Fire Hall.
