Denny McDermott, five miles northwest of Newton, recently bought 80 acres and joined the So Conservation District to craft a full conservation plan with SCS technicians. Since 1949 his gullied low fertility land has seen contour plowing, strip cropping, and improved yields from 35–40 bushels to 65–70 per acre with minimal fertilizer, plus better water distribution and easier field work. He plans further pasture work and trials with birdsfoot trefoil and may add fertilizer later to lift yields.
