Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Harvesting the 1956 Corn Crop
More extensive use of machinery is evident in the harvesting of corn for silage. Between 19h8 and 1956, the quantityr of corn silage harvested with field forage harvesters increased from about one-third to almost 90 percent of the total production.
The acreage of corn used for hogging down, grazing, and forage was larger than average in the drought areas. Some of the corn harvested for forage was small enough to cut with a mower; a side-delivery rake was used for raking.
