Iowa Farms Plant 6000 Trees In Windbreaks
Demonstrations planted more than 6,000 trees on Iowa farms this spring in windbreaks, with nearly 3,500 replacements in 22 older stands. Blue spruce led choices, followed by Douglas fir, white pine, white spruce and black locusts. The effort involved the Iowa Agricultural Extension Service, the State Conservation Commission and the Iowa Farm Bureau. Dairy cows need ample water. Iowa State College experiments show cows drink 10 to 12 times daily when water is available.
