Soil and Water Losses Reduced Through Rotation System
Agronomists at Town State College report after 16 years at the Page County farm in Clarinda that rotating crops sharply cuts soil loss. Continuous corn loses 38.2 tons per acre annually, while corn corn oats meadow or bluegrass and alfalfa reduce losses to near zero. Contouring and terracing further cut losses, and leaving manure or crop residues lowers erosion significantly.
