Too Many Pastures for Hogs Exposed as Exercise Spots
Iowa State College specialist F G Churchill says many hog pastures in the state are只是 exercise yards not feeds. He suggests turning them into proper feed plots by plowing, sowing rape and oats with sweet clover where soil allows, or using bluegrass. Rape should be sown by May 15 and lime should accompany sweet clover. He notes only three of 85 miles observed looked like true hog feed pastures and urges reseeding damaged pastures.
