FBruce County OMAF ARM REPORT Hot Hay Every year at this time we repeat an ar- ticle on hay heating in storage. I predict there will be several problems this year because the hay went in early. Take time, to observe your hay mows for at least 30 days after harvest. Hot hay has a characteristic odour. When you smell it check for hot areas by putting a rod into the hay at least three feet. If the rod is hot when removed call us or the fire department for further information. Residues In Your Spray Tank? Be sure to not drag out any ghosts from your spray tank while spraying the next crop. A thorough cleaning with a heavy laundry or dish detergent will remove most residues from the tank. Clean and flush the tank thoroughly. It takes a very minute residue to kill out your beans or corn. It's a double sickener as you will know you killed them yourself. Commercial operators will use a small amount of ainmonia or ammonium sulfate to be sure. ,Are You Getting •Those Weeds? The dry weather not only is putting stress on the crops but some herbicides re- quire rainfall to activate them. Once we do receive rain anticipate a new flush, • of weeds. Drop nozzles for corn and post ap- plications of sprays on soybeans will likely be required. Inter -row cultivation could be considered for weed control. The crops are under great stress and even the weeds ' have stopped growing. This is why postemergent sprays are ap- pearing ineffective. Hormone sprays pro- mote erratic growth but with no, growth they do not kill weeds well. If you must spray consider morning or evening sprays to reduce crop stress. • The Junior Agriculturalists Have Come Starting on June 20th, 1988, through to the end of the month, young people bet- ween the ages of 15 and 24 with little or no farm experience will be arriving on ten Bruce County farms.
