Now Is Time To Spray Pastures
Several Franklin County farmers with large or rough pastures plan to spray by airplane. H C Stevens of the Soil Conservation Service notes the method suits large or hard to reach fields. The Agricultural Conservation program pays half the cost up to 5.00 per acre, with deferral terms for pastures not sprayed.
