IRRIGATION OF
ALFALFA FIELDS
REQUIRES STUDY
(By v. w. DeTAR, Farm Advisory

(By v. w. DeTAR, Farm Advisory
Imperial county alfalfa growers
find that at this time Of year it is
easy to scald their alfalfa. The
ordinary method used to avoid scald-
ing is to run irrigation water for a
shorter time on each check. This
practice is quite satisfactory on
sandy soil, but on heavy clay or
silty clay soils the result is a re-
duced alfalfa yield. This is due
to the fact that the irrigation wat
er has not penetrated the soil to
a depth that will wet al the root
zone.
During the past few weeks the
farm advisor $ office has had sew
eral requests to determine why Ger
tain plots of alfalfa were not max
ing satisfactory growth. In each
case it was found that the irriga-
tion water was not penetrating to
sufficient depth, and the crop was
suffering from lack of water.
The best way to avoid this diff
Guilty is to use a soil auger. There
are two common types Of soil au-
gers, either of which is quite sa..'
isfactory. One is two inch post
hole augcr. A three foot augcr of
this type can be purchased at most
hardware stores. The other is made
from q IL inch carpenters sta"
dard wood bit, and 3sineh steel
rod. Directf ions for making this
type Of soil auger can be secured
from the farm advisor s office. and
any blacksmith can do the work.
Such soil auger makes it quite
easy to bore into the soil in several
parts of the field and determine
whether the irrigation water has
wet the soil to the proper depth.
Change Suggested
If it is found that proper penc-
tration is not being obtained, some
change should be made in the ir-
rigation practice. If it is possible
to run the water longer ON each
check without scalding the alfalfa,
this is the change which should be
made. If this is not practicable, a
second run of irrigation water
be made ON each check, as soon as
the water from the first irrigation
has soaked into the ground.
Many alfalfa fields have spots
which do not make satisfactory
growth. This is usually due to diff
ference in soil type. 1t has been
found that water one inch deep will
wet four to five inches of heavy
SOIL six to ten inches of medium
loan soil, and - inches or more
of sandy soil. If it is desired to
wet three feet or more of soil, it
is necessary therefore, to apply
much more water to heavy clay soils
than to light sandy soils. The alfal-
ia grower who uses a soil auger
will learn where his soil is heavy
