Crop efficiency

retained on the leaves in
significant amounts to
contribute to disease
development. Concern over
the prevalence of disease in
fertigated cornfields should
be directed at total nitrogen
applied, mtrogen/potassium
balance, and timing of
nitrogen, rather an on fer
tigation alone.”
A number of other recent
developments in corn
production also have a direct
bearing on efficient energy
use, says Mitchell These
include the stay-green
concept in hybrid breeding
a move towards hybrids
that remain green while the
ear loses moisture. This
could result in better
standing corn and reduced
drying costs.
A return to banded
phosphorus can result in
more efficient use of this
element. Faster seedling
development and ad
vancement of silking dates
by as much as 10 days
through this practice can aid

weed control and improve
yield This, too, will improve
the energy input/output
ratio
Applying fertilizer and
herbicides in a single
operation can reduce field
traffic. Muriate of potash
can be blended with Sutan,
Treflan, atrazine or other
herbicides and broadcast as
a preemergence of preplant
incorporated treatment
Weed control is enhanced
when the treatment is
combined with cultivation
Uran has been used at five
gallons per acre as a
defoliant for soybeans When
followed by wheat the
product serves a double role
by reducing weeds in that
crop
Hybrid selection also plays
a big part in energy-efficient
crop production. Last
summer middletown farmer
Bill Haas got 163 bushels of
com to the acre from a short
season hybrid planted no
till after barley and grown
under irrigation with fer
tigation
This is an excellent
example of how a finely
tuned management system
can result in energy-efficient
crop production with higher
returns to the grower than is
possible under conventional
tillage practices.
Don’t let winter put a freeze on your milk production.
This year don’t let your dairy cows get into that usual cold weather production
slump. Add Mol-Mix Liquid Feed Supplements to your feeding program
Mol-Mix is the quality Liquid Feed Supplement that stays in suspension and
won’t freeze or become too thick even in the coldest temperatures. It is the
supplement that helps you keep production up while holding costs in line
Plus you get savings in time and effort
This winter convert to our liquid concept. You’ll be glad you did.
