Excerpt from Work of the Huntley Field Station, Montana, in 1925 and 1926
The total cropped area Of the Huntley reclamation project during the two years covered by this report remained about the same as in previous years - approximately 20, 000 acres. The crops of principal importance were alfalfa, sugar beets, and wheat, although the sugare beet acreage was less in each Of these years than in 1924. Other changes worthy of note were the increases in the production Of beans and barley. Alfalfa continued to occupy somewhat more than one-fourth of the total cultivated area of the project. The larger part of this crop was fed locally, principally to sheep, cattle, and work stock, although a small quantity was shipped out each year. The farm price per ton for hay sold was about 38 In 1925 and 39 In 1926. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
