INGREASE WHEAT YIELD Investigations by Experiment Station Show Good Results The particular feature which has do minated grain culture in California, and on Pacific coast generally, has been mass production, rather than a maximum production per unit of area or quality of product. But with the inevitable ultimate deterioration of soil under such a practice, heightened by the encroachment of other crops, there has been a notable falling off in the production in toto, as well as in the yield per acre, during recent years. While grain farming on an extensive scale is not an industry to be particularly encouraged when natural conditions are such as to make more intensive crops safe, yet it is still, and is destined to be for all time, a very important industry in California; and as one of the staple crops of a general farm is worthy of not only much encouragement but also the greatest aid that can be given it by scientific research. Further, on account of olimatic and topographical conditions there will always be large areas in the state in which cereal culture will be the principal interest. How to produce more grain of better quality per acre, then, is a very pertinent problem. Under a special appropriation of the state legislature the agricultural experiment station of the university of California has conducted for the past five years investigations having in view a solution of this problem, and some very important practical and scientific results have been secured. It is the aim of a bulletin issued by the university to set forth in as brief a manner as possible some of the more important results bearing upon the question of an increased yield. The development of the combined harvester has without doubt decreased the cost of production where grain is harvested upon a large scale, but it has at the same time tended to encourage a desultory system of culture, rendered the fields very foul both by the general distribution of weedseeds and because by the time the grain is harvested in this manner practically all the serious weeds have fully ripened their seed; and further, on account of the long time the grain is left in the field after maturity, has tended to seriously increase the loss from shattering of the grain from the wind. This latter condition is especially true in the Sacramento valley. It is very questionable, then, as to whether the combined effects of these undesirable factors have not more than offset the decreased cost. The summer fallow practice was introduced for two reasons: first, it was an attempt to save as much of two season's precipitation as possible for the production of a single larger crop; second, to clean the land of weeds resulting from continued grain culture. The latter effect has been largely offset by the use of the combined harvester. The shallow preparation of land and the continual practice of burning off the straw has had a very bad effect upon the humus content of the top foot of the soil, which in turn has so affected its physical condition, generally speaking, as to materially reduce its moisture capacity and seriously affect the yield of grain. Further, the earlier seeding made possible by the summer fallow practice has also reduced the quality of the grain, as plowing can be the result. In many localities a depth of twelve inches especially if the land is ceedingly compact and the benefits from deeper not be so evident that unless great care is taken the soil in order to establish pillary connection in the results are of permanent nature.

In order appropriation of the state legislature the agricultural experiment station of the university of California has conducted for the past five years investigations having in view a solution of this problem, and some very important practical and scientific results have been secured. It is the aim of a bulletin issued by the university to set forth in as brief a manner as possible some of the more important results bearing upon the question of an increased yield. The investigations covered by this report, which is written by G. W. Shaw, are in general based upon results and observations covering a long period. For a limited time a portion of the work was conducted in cooperation with the bureau of plant industry of the United States department of agriculture. Both the field and laboratory investigations have covered a wide range. They embrace the relative value of deep vs. shallow plowing, early vs. late seeding, drill vs. broadcast seeding, trials with fertilizers, the effect of certain rotation schemes, the improvement of the soil through green-manuring, moisture conservation, the treatment of grain for the prevention of smut, the value of exchanging seed, cleaning the land from weeds both by cultural methods and the use of chemical sprays, and finally, variety trials and the development of better types of grain than those commonly grown. In the study of the general question of environmental influence upon the quality of wheat, and also the selection work involving an increase of the gluten content, there has of course been a large amount of chemical work required. Questions involved along these lines have been the influence upon the gluten content of the length of the growing period, of the time of harvest, of the time of seeding, of the time the wheat plant receives its moisture, the influence of sunshine and of the composition of the soil. The environmental question as affecting the gluten content will be the theme of a separate report. In this report an effort has been made to so correlate the cultural results and observations that they may be of immediate benefit to the California grain growers, in effecting improvement in soil fertility, increasing the yield of grain, and improving the milling quality of the grain produced. It should be said that these results should be considered as simply the foundation for more extensive work. The shallow preparation of land and the continual practice of burning off the straw has had a very bad effect upon the humus content of the top foot of the soil, which in turn has so affected its physical condition, generally speaking, as to materially reduce its moisture capacity and seriously affect the yield of grain. Further, the earlier seeding made possible by the summer fallow practice has also reduced the quality of the grain, as shown by the analyses of a large number of early and late seeded grain. During recent years, mainly as a result of the reduction in size of some grain farms, and the educational efforts throughout the state conducted by the university of California, there has been an increase of the depth of plowing on the part of some farmers, but in general the same careless methods of culture still hold. To summarize, the general effect of the past and present methods has been the development of a poor physical condition of the land, largely as a result of the depletion of the humus, until the soil refuses to produce profitable crops of the commonly grown varieties of wheat under the old system of farming, and, besides, the soil has been made very foul with weeds. At the outset of these investigations a large number of cultural experiments were planned, principally in the Sacramento valley. It is almost universal practice in California to give grain land a very shallow preparation, probably 90 per cent is seldom, if ever, plowed to exceed 3 or 4 inches in depth. Although this is so generally the practice, yet it is diametrically opposed to the most fundamental principles of "dry-land farming," so-called, viz., securing a deep penetration of water and retaining it in the soil till late in the season for properly maturing the crop, and to encourage deep rooting. On the university farm at Davis, where the average precipitation is about 20 inches, forty trials of deep vs. shallow preparation of land for grain have been tried within the past three years. The average yield of wheat in the state for the past three years has been 14.5 bushels per acre. On the cereal stations, over the same period, the average yields, including all varieties, some of which were very poorly adapted to California conditions and therefore giving light returns, has been as follows: Wheat bushels per acre: Tulare Humus benefits them ally: 6—By supplying nitrogen—By supplying phosphate ash, and lime directly.

It should be said that these results should be considered as simply the foundation for more extensive work. The element of time is an all-essential one for the solution of such problems as these. This would be true even though the problem was merely the development of grain giving higher yields, but, with the introduction of the problem of increasing the gluten content, the element of time is of even greater importance. The old methods of grain growing still persist in California. They are generally very simple and very crude. At first satisfactory returns were obtained because of an unusually fertile virgin soil. At the outset there was an annual cropping of the land to the cereals with no attempt to either rotate crops or restore any of the humus that such a system destroys. In order to cover as large an acreage as possible the crudest methods of culture were practiced. The practice consisted simply of three- or four-inch plowing, broadcasting the seed, and harrowing it in. But little attention was paid to the selection of pure seed, and far too often the growers purchased a second or a third grade seed under the false notion that anything that would sprout was good enough. The more important changes which have taken place since the introduc- "The average yield of wheat in the state for the past three years has been 14.5 bushels per acre. On the cereal stations, over the same period, the average yields, including all varieties, some of which were very poorly adapted to California conditions and therefore giving light returns, has been as follows: Wheat, bushels per acre: Tulare 35.2, Davis 40.4, Ceres 33.2; average 36.3. Barley: Tulare 53.4, Davis 45.4, Ceres 19.1; average 39.3. In this connection it must be remembered that neither irrigation nor fertilization has been practiced on the tracts except in certain plats which are not included in the averages. This increased average yield has been almost entirely due to a deeper plowing than is customary, a better preparation of the seed bed, and a well cultivated summer fallow. On the experimental tract at the university farm at Davis the average yield of barley for the last three years has been 45.4 bushels per acre. The same land at Davis under more shallow preparation, over the same period has returned a yield of 37.9 bushels per acre of barley. Much of the grain land of the state at present, as a result of continued shallow culture, has developed a very tenacious plow-sole which materially lessens its ability to absorb moisture rapidly and freely. On such lands it may not be advisable to plow to the full depth of eight inches at one operation, but rather to increase the depth gradually until eight-inch." plowing can be the regular practice. In many localities a plowing to a depth of twelve inches is advisable, especially if the land has become exceedingly compact and hard. While the benefits from deep plowing may not be so evident the first season, unless great care is taken to sub-pack the soil in order to establish good capillary connection in the undersoil, the results are of permanent character. The subsoll is materially benefited by aeration and other climatic influences, and the effects of deep plowing will be noticeable for several succeeding crops. California soils in the grain growing sections are low in humus. For many years the writer has maintained persistently that the maintenance and increase of the humus component of the soil is the most important single factor in California agriculture. Humus is vegetable or animal matter in process of decay. Its presence in ample quantity in a soil means success; its lack means disaster, and this is particularly true in dry-land farming. To lessen seriously the humus content of a soil is to lower the crop producing powers of the individual farm and impair natural resources. Humus benefits the soil physically: 1—By increasing its water holding capacity. 2—Increasing its warmth. 3—By bettering its texture. Humus benefits the soil chemically: 4—By supplying nitrogen directly. 5—By supplying phosphoric acid, potash, and lime directly. Humus benefits the soil biologically: 6—By affording food for microorganic growth. Very pertinent to this is an experiment described by Professor Cavanaugh, of Cornell experiment station. He undertook the analysis of soil of an orchard where three successive crops of crimson clover had been plowed under.
