Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the experiments conducted at the Akron Field Station between 1908 and 1922 to determine best farming practices in a 15-year period that encompassed significant climate extremes. The author begins by detailing the specific location of the station and describing the often unpredictable and harsh climate in which the surrounding farmers worked. The majority of the book summarizes the data collected over the 15 years from experiments in planting methods, crop selection, and crop variety development for major cereal grains, including corn, oats, barley, and spring and winter wheat. Of these, winter wheat and corn were determined to be the most reliable and productive in this region. The final chapters focus on the development of strains of winter wheat that could withstand the region's specific climate challenges. The author concludes that the experiments conducted during this period provided a foundation for successful dry-land farming practices in this region.
