Plan to double farm machinery output for Iowa
Iowa State College extension agr agricultural engineer J. K. Struthers says manufacturers will meet production schedules for four implements to double farm machinery output. Emphasizing maintenance first, he urges regular lubrication, tight bolts, and replacement of worn parts. Custom work and shared labor among farmers will help, as weather and demand shape the season.
