Worthneton Farm Field Demonstration Shows Lime Value
About a dozen Worthington area farmers attended a Purdue Experiment field day to study soil treatments. Plots tested lime, manure, phosphate, and rotation with corn wheat and clover, showing lime and manure boosting yields and clover in rotation increasing corn and wheat output. Acid phosphate yielded higher net profits per acre than rock phosphate, with lime producing strong clover stands and overall soil improvement evident after years of treatment.
