Bees and Sweet Clover Farm Portrait on Bruinckool Lot

Last week on Case Bruinckool's farm near the house with shade and fruit trees, Lawrence Colyn tended the fields while Case posed among the clover and bees. Seventy hives work the yellow sweet clover as a soil-renewing crop and hay source, with neat, uniform hives and a well-kept farm shop preparing bees for stands.

Alfalfa and farm notes from Otley area farm patch

A six acre alfalfa patch yielded about three tons per acre before early June rains, with two more crops planned before a winter cover crop. The field shows dense growth with no bare spots and good hillside coverage. The report also notes honey harvests at Locustdale farm and beekeeping activity near Pella, plus a new barn project near Four Mile crossing and tips on tree borers from horticulturists at Town State College.

Fight Weeds in Soybean Fields

Iowa farmers may harvest a crop unusual for soybeans unless weed control keeps fields clean. The report notes weed problems tied to non-row planting and suggests methods to reduce infestations.

Dry May beans need early weed work in drilled fields

Observations by H W D Hughes, head of farm crops at Iowa State College, note that dry May beans drilled into soil require weed control while weeds are small to save the crop. Many soybeans are drilled rather than row planted across Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio, with most southern Iowa farmers preferring drilling.

Seed and weed control in soybeans without drills

Farmers without grain drills rely on broadcasting or drilling soybeans and seek weed control options. The main hope is to kill weeds while they are small and vulnerable, limiting competition and improving stands.
