Overman Urging
Lespedeza Crop
For Best Pasture
One or More Acres on
Every Farm Recom
mended
“Good lespedeza is one of the
cheapest livestock feeds on the farm,”
-ays County Agent C. W. Overman,
pointing out that lespedeza is one of
the most outstanding pasture crops
for late spring, summer and fall
grazing in this area. “The Kobe va
riety,” says Mr. Overman, “will per-1
haps give the best grazing and the |
Korean is the next best adapted va- j
riety to this area.
“Lespedeza should be sown in 1
February or certainly the first few I
days in‘March—now is the time to;
sow. Broadcast 30 to 35 pounds of j
seed per acre on new pastures or old
pastures that have practically no les- :
pedeza in them. To re-seed pastures
where a partial stand of seed is be-1
lieved to be present, use 21) to 26
pounds of seed per acre.
“Lespedeza may be sown on a well
prepared seed bed covered very light
ly by brushing in or it may be left
uncovered. Seeding on established
pastures may be done by lightly disc- j.
iug the pasture before seeding or
most of the seed will germinate when
sown in February bn unbroken pas
tures.
“For milk cows, work Stock, hogs
and poultry, lespedeza is an excellent :
grazing crop. Every farm should j
have one or more acres sown for good
lespedeza grazing next summer. A
local supply pf seed is available.
I.ct’s sow lespedeza now for green
pastures next summer.”
