Cropspecialist tells
about Kentwood

PERTH & HURON COUNTIES
A decision faced by white
bean growers this year is
whether . to plant the variety
Kentwood. This controversial
new variety has two sides to it.
On one hand is its growth
characteristics and ability to
yield. It is more upright in
growth habit than., Sanilac or
Seafarer and tends to hold the
pods off the ground better at
maturity. In tests in the bean
growing -area it has suc-
cessfully outyielded both
Sanilac and Seafarer.
On the other hand, is its size.
"the Kentwood bean is larger in
size than either Sanilac or
Seafarer. This presents a
problem for canners and
graders: With the present bean
handling equipment some
changes will have to be made at
the elevators before these
Kentwood' beans can be han-
dled.
It will also mean that the
Kentwoods will have to be kept
in separate silos and handled
separately. The elevator
operators see this as a problem
that • is not easy to police'
especially at peak harvest
times. This also means that not
all ,elevators will be able to
accept Kentwood' beans. If
some Kentwoodbeans are ..
accidentally mixed in with
Sanilac or Seafarer the grading"
system will penalize the larger
Kentwood bean.
If growers intend to 'try the
,higher yielding Kentwood bean
this year they should plant at
least 8 --or 10 acres. This way at
harvest' there will be a sizeable
load of these beans to deliver at
one time and thus less chance
of an individual grower mixing
beans•of two different sizes.

The .quality of hay, silage and
pasture has •a great influence
on a dairyman's profits from
milk production, according to
W.R. Broadworth,, the
associate agr. rep. for Huron.
County.. Lower feed bills and
satifactrory production result
from stocking barn and silo
with high quality forage,
Mr. Broadworth feels the
demand for grain to feed the
world's population will not
wane, which means there is a
need to harvest more nutrients
required for milk production
from forage crops. The secret
behind the nutritive value of
forages is'in cutting legumes at
the 1-10 bloom or earlier.
An acre of alfalfa produces
four tons 'of dry hay a year or
two tons leaves and two tons
sterns. About 25 percent of this
dry matter is lost in harvesting ,
and storing, and because most
of the lost material is leaves,
two tons of stems and only one
ton leaves are accumulated.
Early cutting of the leaves
while they are still growing,
„crushing or conditioning -to
speeddrying, and minimum
handling, all help to reduce leaf
loss.
Inadequate fertilization
lowers yields per acre and Mr.
Broadworth encourages
dairymen to test the soil and
follow fertilizer recom-
mendations. Potassium and
phosphorus are two major
nutrients, which if adequate,
will 'enhance the longevity in
forage stands.
Some' Huron , County
dairymen have come to know
the advantages . of cutting ,r
alfalfa or alfalfa based. forages
• as haylage rather than hay.
'Besides bei.ng„a low moisture
silage, alfalfa is easier to
harvest, has less chance of
having rain damags and is
easier• to feed mechanically.
The big plus for haylage is its
higher protein content because
of less leaf loss.
