Agricultural report notes ploughing and disease impact on crops

The article details farming practices including tractor adoption and plough types near Dahli, sowing in late March to mid May, and yields. It notes wheat diseases such as loose smut and stem sawfly, with frost causing more damage than disease, and mentions fungicide treatments and ridging trends in Wellinson-Yeoval districts.
