Chavez boycott questioned by Delano grape grower
A Delano grape grower challenges Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers, arguing Chavez’s fast and demands lack credibility. The piece contrasts boycott rhetoric with farm workers’ interests, pesticide policy, and integrated pest management while noting industry bankruptcies and safety practices.
Sweet clover hay as seed and safety guidance
Sweet clover may be used as a green manure and was once a hay crop. When cut in bud or first flower it makes usable hay, though its thick stem makes curing harder than alfalfa. Dryness before baling is essential to prevent spoilage and the risk of the disease caused by dicoumarol from coumarin. Bright mold-free hay is safest for feeding. Ohio fields show potential for extra hay in drought conditions.
