Plan No. 625. Alfalfa Brings Good Returns

This farmer does well with twenty-five acres based on prices before the war.

“I have twenty-five acres of 4-year-old alfalfa on sub-irrigated land. I cut two crops a year, averaging three tons per acre, and use the third crop for pasture. I can sell my hay for from $10 to $14 per ton unbaled. While there is not a great deal of alfalfa raised here I am sure that it will do well and bring very good returns on the investment.”
