Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Comparison of Annual Cropping, Biennial Cropping, and Green Manures on the Yield of Wheat
The project consisted of fourteen one-tenth acre plats quite uni form in character and included five trials with various green manure crops as compared with bare fallow and with continuous cropping. Each test was made in duplicate, so that of the biennial cropped plats one plat out of each series was cropped to wheat every year. During the summer of 1907 all plats were fallowed in order to disintegrate the plow sole and put the soil in as good physical condition as possible. This was deemed advisable inasmuch as the field had been cropped to grain for a number of years prior to its being used for experimental purposes.
