Labor intensive crop
Cauliflower being given try
Two new commercial
crops are being grown in the
Exeter area this summer.
• Cauliflower and green
peppers have been in-
-yroduced to Huron County by
Lien Veri, owner of Exeter
Produce. 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.

plant being hand tied. -About
60 people are being - hired
with some offered per-
manent positions.
"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.

ROUNDUP® WILL CONTROL
OUACKIRASS THIS FALL, FOR A
CLEAN START COME SPRING.
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.
