Illinois farm yields and 4-H award notes
Illinos official estimate shows a 2 percent corn yield rise from last year yet Carroll County farmers report stronger gains. A field check by Wilson Fisher and Julius Johnson with Bob Tautz found 138 bushels per acre under wheel-track planting and no cultivation. The piece also covers high moisture corn use, dairy cow feeding, beef cattle trends, and announces Arnold Getz Ardath Flack earning the 4-H Club Congress Award with county pride and calls for future coverage.
