WEEDS STUMBLING
BLOCK TOFARMERS
Plant Diseases Also Stand in
Way of Growers in Pro- _
duction of Small Grain
Mixed varieties, plant diseases,
and common and noxious weeds
compose three stumbling blocks
for North Carolina farmers in the
production of quality small gram.
However, declares A. D. Stuart,
extension seed specialist at State
College, these Obstacles dan be
overcome to a large extent by
good farm practices.
The use of pure seed will elim
inate the low yield and poor
quality of mixed varieties, -he
pointed out, as well as control
Thursday, May 6, 1937
most weeds, since a large portion
of the weeds produced in tilled
fields are planted with the seed.
Stuart says that the North
Carolina Crop Improvement As
sociation gives the opportunity of
both using and producing pure
seed. Applications are now being
received for the inspecting of
small grain fields for certifica
tion.
If a grower's crop passes field
inspection by the Association,
threshing should be done careful
ly. All equipment should be
cleaned thoroughly before work Is
begun so that no mechanical
mixture will result, the seed spe
cialist advises. v
After threshing and cleaning,
a small sample of the grain
must, be submitted to the Crop
Improvement Association for of
ficial purity and germination
tests by the State Department of
Agriculture. *
