Fertilizer In Hands
Increases Potato Yields
Tests conducted tot eleven differ-!
ent farmh with the early Irish potato!
n op in HC.X, indicate thai placing j
the Jerlilizer in bands to the sine of
tile seed piece will give definite .Increases
in tile acre yield
-"Our results this year showed an
Increase of from 2 to 2:1 of the hundred
pound sacks to the acre cr ati
average of 11 sacks for the whole
series of field ilcfiionstrations." announced
L.. P. Watson, extensionhor
tlculturiatal State College; "This
average of 1,100 pounds increase per
acre is not so outstanding as the results
scoured last year but growing
conditions in the early part of this
season were almost ideal and thus
\ >danger front fertiliser burp to the
young iplunts was reduced to the
minimum."
Mr. Watson secured increases of
2.475 pcunda to the acre in the demonstrations
conducted in 1937.
The band method of placing the
fertilizer was used in the dentonstra
lions. This was accomplished by the
use of a machine which plants the
seed/ and at the same time dlstrlbn
tes the fertilizer in two narrow baud
two inches to each side and slightly
, belcw the level of the seed piece. In
each division, one acre was planted
by this band method and a check
plot of cue acre was planted alongside
using the methods commonly fol
lowed by the farmer. At digging
time, thi- two plots were dug sepatately
and. the potatoes carefully
graded and measured.
Air. Watson said the demonstrations
this year were conductedi by
farmers under the supervision of
county agents in Camden, Carteret,
Beaufort, Pitt, Wayne and Tyrrell
counties. A large number of potato
growers are planning to adopt the >
new method of placing fertilizers aa
a result of the tests.
