4'4 THE HURON EXPOSITOR AUGUST 3, 1978
• By Mike Miller & Pat Lynch '
Before harvesting this year's grain crop.,
farmers should be sure to, clean up their'
grain storage facilities to avoid contamin-
ation and damage caused by stored grain,
insects. If not controlled, insects can
contribute to a reduction' in the market
value of the crop, feed contamination, a
joss of feed value, heating and' spoilage,
low seed germination and destruction of
wood granaries. -
YoUP preventative measures should
include: (1) sweeping the dust and grain
• -from the walls, floor and ceiling. Renriove
_grain accumulations from behind
partitions, between double walls, outside .°
and under the bin. Also thoroughly clean
grain handling equipnient. Burn or bury
the sweepings. (2) Repair wooden bins to
`make them weather-rodent-bird proof,
Eliminate cracks 'and crevices that can
harbor insects. Likewise, repair cracks in
concrete foundations of ;metal bins. (3)
Apply a residual spray (bin treat) to the
walls and floors of wooden bing and'-
foundations or base edges of steel bins. Bin
treatments should be applied well in
advance of refilling. ('4) Establish grain
storage facilities away from feed bins, feed
grinding equipment and livestock housing.
Livestock produce moisture and feed
facilities are 'difficult to keep insect free,
.Extra good housekeeping is needed.
Fumigation is only an emergency
measure that does not totally' eliminate
storage insects. Only preventative
measures can do that,
ALFALFA VARIETIES
Choosing an alfalfa variety generally •
takes a matter of minutes: The decision
made in those few minutes will affect a
field for years. This merely makes that
decision, so much more important.
There are two types Of alfalfa,- Saranac
types and Vernal types. The main
difference between these two types is
yield, The Saranac types outyield the
Vernal types by 300 to 400 lbs. per cut.
Thus, for a two-cut/year system, over
three years, the Saranac type will outyield
the Vernal type by 1800.2400 lbs. ,
Since harvesting, fertility and seeding
costs are the same, we may as well be
growing the Saranac types. The Saranac
types are just as winter hardy as the Vernal .
types.
There are a number of. Saranac type
varieties. A list can be found on page 18 of
the ,I978 Field Crop Recommendations.
Experience has shown that some of these
Saranac types yield better than others at.
different locations. Thus, • one of the
Saranac types may. yield better for one
farmer than it does for his neighbour.
ALFALFA SEEDING RATE
If you are sowing more than 12- lbs. of
alfalfa seed , per acre, you are wasting
money. Research.conducted at the
University of Guelph has shown equal •
yields after three years from alfalfa sown at
6, 12, 18 and 24 lbs./ac. •
This year, Vic Roland at Avonton, Perth
• 4.
•!,••••000.1
County ,sowed some'alfalfa at 10 lbs. per
acre and some • at 5.. lbs. per acre. 100
farmers viewed these" plots at the Annual
Soils & Crops Twilight meeting. We asked
these farmers which seeding rate looked
the thickest. Most could see no difference,
To us this proved that alfalfa sown at an
early date with a starter fertilizer and then
sprayed with EmbutOx, can be sown at Jess
than the conventional 12 to 25 lbs. per acre,
WEED WATCH
There are a.nuipber of agressive weeds
showing tip in Huron County. They include •
velvet leaf, jimsorry weed,' nutsedge and
Atrazine resistant. Iamb's 'quarters. Each
starts as one totw,c) plants in a field, but
can cover a number of.acres, two br three
years after being established. These
weeds,. generally, ' escape our . most
common herbicides.
All of these wseds can be controlled with
specific herbfcides next year, but it's
necessary to identify them now. Control,
this year, may consist of using a burn-off
chemical. If a burn-off chemical is used,
avoid damaging the crop. An aggressive
crop will reduce further Weed germination ,
this year. •
CHECK SOYBEANS FOR NODULES
Soybeans are a legume that produce
their own nitrogen. This nitrogen is made'
by bacteria ,that form nodules on the
soybean roots. The bacteria are introduced
to first -year soybeans by means of a
.bacteria inoculum: If this inoculum has
been,-applied properly, 'each soybean plant
4.
should have 4 to ,10'nodules. If the plants
have few nodules, there is nothing that can
be be done to• thc,t,etirrent .crop-
means that the method. used this year is
inadequate and a different method must be
used the next year. Once .the bacteria is
introduced to a field, it will remain for a
au Fnotbresrol years,

people do not like to
SOIL TESTING
soil test. Indeed, over 3/4 of the 'crops in
Huron County ,are planted without the
benefit of this management tool. Each
spring people tell us they knew they should

. soil test, but don't. As far as we are

have the right lubricant for a motor or the
right mineral fora livestock ration,

recommendations are based on the
experience of crop need's and a. lot of
guessing as to the soil's ability to supply
nutrients. Since there was no soil test,
available, we treated. all tields:the same. '
Naturally, all these fields were not the
same. These recommendations either
decrease yields or increase crop costs. '
If we had soil tests, we could point out ,
: the areas or fields that needed different
fertilizers. ,
