Orchard Cover Crops
Protect Bank Account
" 'Save the surface and you save
all,' a paint company slogan, cer
tainly applies to soils."
"When an owner allows his top
soil to wash away he has literally
sold his farm down the river."
"The practice of close pasturing
of sod orchards may be fine for the
livestock, but it doesn't help to fill
boxes in the packing shed."
These are a few of the pungent
observations included in a new ex
tension bulletin entiled, "Orchard
Soil Covers," which discusses the
why and how of maintaining soil
fertility in Oregon orchards through
the use of cover or green manure
crops. The bulletin is a joint pro
duction of 0. T. McWhorter, E. R.
Jackman and Arthur King, O. S. C.

"The fertility of the soil under
neath the tree in an orchard may be
regarded as the owner's bank ac
count," the authors point out. "Ev
ery time a crop of fruit is taken off,
a check is drawn on that account.
When a cover crop is turned down
or manures are added, a deposit is
made. In many orchards the checks
are more numerous than the de
posits. Nature spent some millions
of years in building up the fertility
account. Twenty years of poor man
agement will bankrupt it."
The bulletin tells why orchards
require a steady return of organic
matter if they are to remain profit
able, and then lists many different
kinds of crops which are suitable
under the varying soil and climatic
conditions where orchards are grown
in Oregon. The double purpose of a

LARGE PREMIUM LISTS
cover crop is adding fertility and
protecting the soil against erosion is
emphasized. Use of fertilizers with
cover crops is advised in many cases.
Sod orchards are experimental
only for non irrigated conditions, but
a permanent cover crop in irrigated
orchards is now strongly endorsed
by many of the most successful
growers, say the specialists.
