He said his com- pany was looking for another crop to grow with turnips and a year was spent researching the suitability of cauliflower to this area. There' are 175 acres of cauliflower growing in the Exeter area. Part of the crop is owned by Veri and the rest of it is contracted from local farmers. - The_ peppers are being grown on -a trial basis only. The crop is susceptible to damage if there are cold nights during the blossoming .time and may not be suitable for this area, said Veri.

"It can be a very lucrative crop: I think with the in- crease in the price of far- mland people are going to have to grow more labor intensive crops," Veri Said.. The cauliflower crop is being irrigated, which isn't always necessary, but acts as an insurance policy against dry weather, he said. "We can't even irrigate fast enough right now. The crop will be marketed to local chain stores, agents, and some of it will be ex- ported -to the United States. If this year's crop is suc- in area cessful, acteage will be expanded next year, said Veri. "The crop is looking very good so far" he said. There were some dif- ficulties with it earlier in the --season because cauliflower is a new crop, but these prnblems_have_been.ironed out, Veri said. Don t buy you see the best.

Next spring, nothing will be more important than getting in and planting as early as possible. Un- fortunately, that doesn't leave much time for dealing with quaekgrass. Unless you apply Roundup® herbicide by Monsanto -this fall after harvest. Simply allow the quackgrass to re- grow undisturbed in the crop stubble until the majority of plants are actively growing and at least 8 inches high (3-4 leaf stage). But treat before the first killingfrost- = . Properly applied, Roundup will be absorbed and "translocated" down into the network of rhizomes,— de- stroying the entire plant, above and below ground. Five days after treatment, you can resume fall tillage operations. . Since Roundup,has no re- sidual soil activity, you can plant wheat, oats or barley next spring — without risk of crop in- jury. What's more, many farmers usin Roundup as the key element in a quackgrass con- trol program, have been able t achieve manage- able quackgrass control for as Ion as three years. Don't think of treating -quack- - grass as one more chore in the fall. Think of it as one les chore in the spring.
