Copper Company Has Important Model Farm
BERLIN It is not usual to study the latest farming methods at a great metallurgical firm but the Hirsch Copper and Brass Company has become a leading model farm in Germany. Starting with 100 cows and land, the farm expanded during inflation to cover a large estate for workers. The firm experiments with electricity to speed crop production, heating 4,500 square meters of land with underground cables and powering glass-house steam heating. A portable rain cannon sprays water from neighboring lakes and canals to create rainfall over 660 meters. Electricity enables early spring crops and the firm also runs extensive poultry farming.
