Productivity of these plots <br />~J remains at zero. Extreme caution must be used while spreading the sulfur <br />because it can catch fire. A spreader that does'nt have any moving parts <br />that will rub or scrape the sulfur is recommended. <br /> <br />Seed Production Record <br /> <br />Jose Wheat Grass <br /> <br />1969 - 174# <br />1970 - 213# <br />1971. - 156# <br />1972 - 193# <br /> <br />1973 - 0 Replant <br />1974 - 160# <br />1975 - 563# <br /> <br />A startling increase in seed production was recorded in 1975.. This <br />increase in production coincides with an equally phenomenal decrease in. the <br />ground water table. As yet we have not been able to find the cause of the <br />ground water table reduction. The degree of relationship between a lower <br />ground water table and better production have been substantiated by earlier <br />pumping tests in the Bethel corners areal. It has also been established that <br />canal lining and improved farm practices will lower the water table so un- <br />doubtedly many farmers here in the valley can look forward to increased <br />production. <br /> <br />1 <br />C.5.U Bul. 535 F Reclamation of Saline Soils in the Upper Colorado <br />River Basin.
