Factors In Profitable Farming

profitable farming is a fertile soil.
The principal steps necessary to
secure a fertile soil are given by
Prof. G. P. Blackwell, Chief of
the Agronomy Division.
First, the drainage must be
taken care of and the land not
allowed to wash if II is to be
built up to high state oftertility.
In order 10 prevent washing 1t is
necessary to have proper terrac.
ing Next to proper terracing is
the incorporation oforganic mat
ter as the most important thing
for our thin soils. We have
found that the greater the
amount of organic matter added
to most South Carolina soils the
greater the amount of fertilizer
that can be applied with profit.
We have also found that le
gumes constitute the best source
of organic matter. Legumes
when grown as a companion
crop make the most economical
contribution of, organic matter
and nitrogen to the soil. Ofthese
companion crops, perhaps the
velvet bean is the most valuable.
when grown as companion crop
with, corn. Cowpeas and soy
beans may also be grown sue.
cessfully in this way.
The legume's next most eco
nomical contribution to soil im-
provement is as a winter cover
crop. The legume may be grown
alone;or in combination with rye.
Rye aud vetch make one of our
best winter cover crops when
turned under as a green manur.
ing crop. 80
The third most important fac
tor in soil improvement is crop
rotation. A crop rotation in
which a legume appears as often
as practicable is extremely i'm.
portant in soil improvement and
in promoting greatest efficiency,
of valuable plant food in the soil.
We have found in our expert.
ments that crop rotation con.
tributes as much to the yield of
crops as 1000 pounds of 8-4.4 fer
tilizer per acre. 1t is therefore a
contribution which can not be
neglected.
Proper cultivation IS also a
very important factor in efficient
crop production. Many of the
farmers in South Carolina do not
have the proper plows or suffi-
cient teams with which to pre-.
pare and cultivate their land ef.
ficiently.
Another aid to successful crop
production is proper use of lime
and commercial fertilizer From
our experiments to date. we be-
lieve that lime when used in con
nection with organic matter and
crop rotation is a valuable aid to
soil building and economical
production. The judicious use
of commercial fertilizers essen
tial to profitable cfop production
on practically all Of the soils OF
this state. Judging both from
our experiments and from obser.
walton of the practice of our
most successful farmers, we are
convinced that the above named
factors are the determining fac.
tors in successful crop produc.
