AGRICULTURAL
EXTENSION
SERVICE
by
John G.
Richardson
Robeson County
Extension Chairman
About this time each year
the North Carolina Depart
ment of Agriculture provides
us a computer printout of the
summaries of all soil tests that
were taken in Robeson County
for the prior fiscal year. The
most recent soil test summary
that was received was for the
period beginning July 1. 1983
through June 30, 1984. As
usual, a review of the infor
mation helps to provide some
interesting assessments of the
fertility status of our Robeson
County soils and the level of
participation in the soil test
ing program. With this infor
mation we can then plug in
some local figures to make our
own assessments as to the
overall usage of soil testing by
our farmers as a tool in their
production programs.
Last fiscal year there were
5,124 soil samples tested from
Robeson County, and the
various categories of crops for
which tests were made in
cluded 467 samples for tobac
co or 9.1 percent. There were
1,738 samples for corn or 33.9
percent of the total number of
samples submitted. Small
grains held a 10 percent level
with 514 samples, while soy
beans accounted for 1,155
samples or 22.6 percent.
There were 427 samples sub
mitted in which cotton was
going to be the next crop
planted or 8.4 percent.
Homeowners and industries
submitted 258 samples or 5
percent which were listed
under the area of home
grounds. There were 565
samples or 11 percent sub
mitted for miscellaneous pur
poses which would include
pastures, horticultural crops,
forestry, and all other areas
for which a specific category
has not been specified.
Even though soil testing is
considered a vital part of a
farm fertility program, closer
analysis of these figures
clearly indicate the need for
many farmers to become more
serious about this practice. By
being generous and calculat
ing that each sample would
account for a test of five acres
of land for a given crop, we
found that of our approxi
mately 13,000 acres of tobacco
grown, that samples were
submitted for only about 18
percent of our total acreage.
Continuing on the five acre
per sample estimate, the
number r>f "n"11"
for analysis for corn pro
duction accounted for only 9.1
percent of our total estimated
acreage. Small grains faired
even more poorly with only
7.5 percent of the total
acreage tested, and soybeans
coming in at even a smaller
percentage of 4.8 percent of
the total acres grown. Cotton
production is confined to a
much smaller geographical
area and numbers of farmers.
Yet, while cotton is produced
by those fewer individuals, it
is readily apparent that cotton
producers are much more
serious about their fertility
programs since the samples
submitted accounted for 28.5
percent of the total cotton
acreage when using our five
acre per sample formula.
Since many farmers custo
marily take soil tests every
three years, our most gener
ous assessment of the total
acres of these crops that are
grown locally for which soil
test information has been ob
tained during the past three
years amounts to 54 percent
for tobacco, 28 percent for
corn, 22 percent for small
grains, 14 percent for soy
beans, and 86 percent for
cotton. From these figures we
can readily see that tobacco
and cotton producers are
showing greater interest in
obtaining a soil fertility ana
lysis on their farms, and it
becomes reaidly apparent that
many corn, small grain, and
soybean producers are less
serious about being aware of
the specific fertility status of
the soils in which those crops
are grown.
With the tremendously low
figure for soybeans, it is
apparent that if we are to
obtain optimum yields and
income from soybean produc
tion in Robeson County, that a
more serious effort must be
undertaken by many of our
soybean growers to obtain
specific information on the
fertility status of those soils
where soybeans will be grown
and to subsequently have the
opportunity to utilize this
analytical information in ad
justing fertility levels to most
nearly meet the needs of the
crop to be grown.
Soil testing supplies and
other information relating to
these analysis may be ob
tained at the County Exten
sion Office in Lumberton.

Soccer-The Role*
Are Simple
If you touch the ball with
your hands it is a free kick for
the other team from the spot
of the touching. If you use
your hands in the penalty area
it is a penalty kick. There
must be two men between you
and the goal otherwise you
are off-side. If the ball goes
out-of-bounds on the side
lines it is a throw-in for the <
other team. The throw-in i
must be down in one motion
from over the head, both feet
must remain in contact with
the ground. If the ball goes

goal kick by the defensive
team. If the defensive team
touches last it is put back in
play by a corner kick by the
offensive team. If you "play"
the man instead of the hall it
is a free kick for the ofTc.ided
team. Unnecessary roughness
can cause disqualification of
the offending player.
So. one of the World's
oldest games is very simp1 in
rules but very difficui. to
master the skills. A player
must educate his fcit and
become a master at team
play. Skill is more important
than size. It is tnily fun to play
