Hints Given For Curing
Tobacco By Bulk
An Increasing number of
North Carolina farmers will be
curing their crop by the rela
tively new bulk curing method
this year. This method Is radi
cally different from the tradi
tional curing process and re
quires as much if not more
exactness in operating.
"Farmers using bulk curers
should utilize the advantages In
herent in the bulk method to
produce the best possible re
sults," comments Rupert Wat
kins, extension agriculture en
gineering specialist at North
Carolina State.
Watkins offers the following
hints which farmers may find
helpful in practicing bulk cur
ing.
1. Load racks or bales uni
formly with as little variation
between bale weights as prac
tical. Bale weight differences of
more than 10 to 15 pounds should
be avoided. Loose spots or
rounded corners In bales should
be avoided to Insure uniform
air flow through all of each
Much of the pressed ap
pea ranee associates wun nuK
cured tobacco can be avoided
by the exercise of a reasonable
degree of care in placing the
handfuls or armfuls of tobac
co in the racks for bailing.
Leaves should beplacedonedge
as much as practical so that
they are wrinkled as the bale
is compressed rather than laid
flat.
3. Soft rot (also known as
stem rot, barn rot and pole
rot) can be minimized by blow
ing fresh air through the bales
to dry the leaf surface should
also be kept dry during yellow
ing of first ana second primin
gs where there is danger of soft
rot. This soft rot bacteria
comes from the soil and thrives
in warm, moist atmospheres.
It Is more troublesome in first
and second primings.
4.' With the current empha
sis on fully mature or ripe
tobacco farmers should yellow
their tobacco a little longer and
take advantage of the forced
air principle of bulk curing to
dry the leaf at slightly lower
