Terms By ' ADAM and AARON LIED Frank and Paul Snyder, Auctioneers 859-2688 733-7052 XT p ry ci er (< Not Responsible for Accidents William Hepler, associate professor of plant breeding at Penn State. He said it is estimated that 4,000 acres of tomatoes will be planted to machine harvest varieties in Pennsylvania this summer. Harvesting costs of one machine tested by Dr. Hepler and associates came to $11.96 per ton compared with hand-harvested costs of $22.93 per ton. In ex periments during 1970 and 1971, Atll:ooA.M Mrs. Ruth Louch, Owner Churchville, Md. Lancaster Farming, Saturday, March 10,1973 machine harvesting costs averaged $lO to $l4 per ton, compared with $2O per ton for hand harvesting. Using good management, yields of 20 tons per acre should be expected,. Dr. Hepler reported. The 3-year studies were the first full-scale, farm-based Penn sylvania experiments to harvest tomatoes by machine. Cooperating on the studies were Robert F. Fletcher, Extension specialist in vegetable crops; Richard C. Funt, graduate assistant in agricultural economics; and Donald R. Daum. Extension agricultural engineer. Several tomato varieties can be used for machine harvesting, the studies showed. Best suited for direct seeding and transplanted acreage were Merit, Potomac, and Chef. Chico 111 is recom mended for direct seeding only. Red Rock and ARC gave best results for transplanting only. Under a mechanized system, transplanting of seedling tomatoes should be carried out in May for August and early Sep tember harvesting, the Penn Staters found. Direct field seeding should be done in late April for harvesting by mid to late September. A 6 to 8 week harvest period is possible with the combination of transplanting, direct field seeding, and variety ripening. Dr. Hepler pointed out Where transplanted seedlings are used, 8500 to 9000 plants per acre should be adequate for economical machine harvesting, the experiments determined. In fields with less than 8000 tran splants per acre, yields were reduced by up to 6 tons per acre. With direct seeded tomatoes, 12,000 clumps per acre should be adequate for economical machine harvesting. The research was supported in part by the Pennsylvania Fair Fund administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. To gain experience with the system, Dr Hepler suggests that growers who plan to harvest by hand should use the techniques developed for mechanized harvest. This includes varieties, planting schedules, and use of beds in direct seeded plantings. Where heavy soil may delay seedling emergence in direct seeded plantings, anti-crustants should be helpful, it was suggested.
