Soils, Soil Erosion, Soil Conservation & Crop Management

Description: Photograph of lost wheat crop. Right: the field as planted to wheat after the land lay fallow over the summer. The wheat was likely planted too late and this, together with the lack of stubble on the surface resulted in the loss of the crop. Left: A small area of the wheat field that made a fair stand. If sorghum had been planted last spring instead of the following [the wheat/], the sorghum stubble would have helped to hold the soil for the wheat crop. TX-1844.
