Better Iowa Alfalfa Harvest Timing and Curing Guidelines
Farm crops specialists at Iowa State College state that alfalfa leaves form 60 percent of the crop’s value. To maximize value, stack or barn the cut alfalfa at the proper time. Experiments show drying weather allows half a day in the swath and a full day in the windrow for curing. Two seasonal indices guide cutting: bloom appearance and new crown growth on the stems.

Crown rust outbreak shifts east from hedge near Hinton
A crown rust outbreak traced from a hedge near Hinton in Iowa spread rapidly by June 9, reaching up to 50 miles east and 15 miles north and 12 miles west. Infection was highest adjacent to the hedge, with 90 percent in nearby fields. A June 8 survey from Ames to Sioux City found no rust elsewhere.
