Madison Vetch May Be
Higher Yield Answer
By PAT GALLUP
Veterans Farm Instructor
Farmers, if you are farming sandy land, Madison vetch could
be your answer to higher yields and better living. Can com and
rye yields be doubled by using vetch in your crop rotation, or is it
just “vetch talk”?
First, let’s look at the sandy soil we have in north-central Ne
braska. It’s low in water holding ability, is moderately acid and is
low in plant nutrients, especially nitrogen and phosphorus. Here
lies the answer to our low yields!
Second, let’s look at this soil vitalizer, vetch. It grows readily
on moderately acid soil where with sweet clover and alfalfa, poor
stands often result. When properly inoculated, vetch puts nitrogen
in the soil at the rate of 60 to 120 pounds per acre, the equivalent
of $7.50 to $15, if put on as ammonium phosphate. Vetch is a heavy
feeder on phosphate and responds well to phosphate fertilizer. It
increases the organic matter (humus) in the soil, thus enabling the
soil to hold more water for prolonged dry periods.
When big rains come, there is less run off, more moisture for
crops. When planted in the fall vetch prevents the loss of valuable
nutrients leaching through the soil.
Vetch can be fall or spring seeded. When planted in the fall it
matures the following summer. When spring planted it makes seed
in the fall of the same year. If grazed or mowed moderately it will
mature the following summer. In the fall it should be seeded at the
rate of 10 pounds of vetch and one bushel of rye (Pierre is a recom
mended variety) about September 1, preferably not later than
September 15. Wheat can be substituted for rye as a nurse crop.
If soil is deficient in phosphorous, it should be applied in row with
seed according to results of a soil test The seedbed should be firm.
It is important that the vetch be inoculated with the proper type
bacteria or poor stands often result. Ten pounds vetch and two
bushels of oats planted at oat planting time makes a good spring
planting.
Vetch can be harvested by either straight combining or wind
rowing. Straight combining is cheaper but green material in grain
makes it harder to store. Difficulty is often experienced in wind
rowing when strong winds move the windrows. Combines and wind
rowers should be equipped with divider bars to push the vetch
down, enabling the sickle to cut a clean swath. Separation of wheat
and rye from the vetch can be satisfactorily accomplished by the
use of a gravity spiral seed cleaner.
Vetch can be used for pasture or hay without injury to live
stock and it is higher than alfalfa in digestible protein and in total
digestible nutrients. In haying, cut the vetch when the first pods
are full and before they begin turning brown. Vetch is showing
promise as an excellent ensilage crop.
Fall drilling 10 pounds vetch per acre in native grass pas
tures increases the growth and stand of native grasses. If grazed
moderately, the vetch will reseed the following year.
Mr. Gallup will take members of the veterans farm class and
non-members to the Pierce soil conservation demonstration farm to
day (Thursday) for a first-hand study of a vetch plot.
Mr. and Mrs. A1 Fritton and
daughter, LuAnne, will spend
this weekend in Omaha. Their
daughter, Miss Marilyn, plans to
return with them for a visit.

day morning for Lincoln wnere
