EIGHT-The Heppner GaieUe-Timea, Grasshopper invasion expected County Extension Agent Harold Kerr expects grass hoppers to be everywhere in about a month especially causing problems near homes, gardens, and irrigated crop lands. Kerr said after harvest is completed, the then adult grasshoppers will be flying to areas near homes or to irrigated cropland. "There are a lot of grass hoppers in concentrated areas." Kerr said. "Spring wheat and irrigated crops may have to be sprayed." of cropland were sprayed in the south lone area. Between 15 and 20 wheat growers got together to finance the spray ing of the land. Because of the cost, only the edges of the fields were sprayed. "The farmers had to pay the entire cost of the spray program." Kerr said. "Be cause it was cropland, they did not pet any help. This is the first year we have had to spray cropland. In the past, the big spray programs have been done on ranReland and the cost was split oetween the farmer, the state and the federal government with each paying one-third." Kerr recommends that gardeners use the chemical "malathion" to protect their gardens from the grasshopp ers but warns that it only lasts for two to three days so the grasshoppers may come back. He said malathion is the safest product to use but it does not last the longest. About 330,000 acres of rangeland were sprayed for grasshoppers last year in areas where it was just "full of them" but those areas are practically trouble free this year. Kerr said. tu - Kerr said the rainy weather in recent weeks has been good for the wheat in Morrow County, which is 80 percent soft white wheat that is used for cakes, cookies and noodles and is the major crop in the county. T he rain makes the wheat have fuller kernels and have less protein, which is desireable in the soft white wheat. Soft white wheat that has low protein of eight or nine percent is better quality than 10 or 12 percent. The higher protein content is desireable in the red wheats that are used for bread, he said. The extension agent added that the cool, wet weather has created a "rust colored fungus on the wheat which will reduce the yield somewhat but the fuller kernels should more than make up for that loss. Because of the cooler weather, harvesting should begin between July 10 and 15 depending on the wheat farm's elevation-which varies in Morrow County from 800 feet above sea level to 3,500 feet, Kerr said. Kerr said the farmers would like to see a higher price for their grain as harvest season nears. Last week it was $4 a bushel in Portland. The rain has caused some problems for hay growers, Kerr said. Hay that has been cut is still down because it has not warmed up enough to dry the hay so it can be bailed. Rain has delayed the second cutting of land that has been cut earleir in the year. All the farmers can do is keep rolling the hay until it dries so it can be bailed. Once it is bailed, "the rain won't particularly hurt it," Kerr said. Oregon and US. "The Oregon farmer and U.S. farmer are the only farmers in the world suffering from the embargo," said Don Thompson, Moro farmer and president of the Oregon Wheat Growers League. Thompson referred to the Carter Administration's em bargo of grain to the Soviet Union, and the recent decision to allow U.S. firms to sell foreign grain to the Soviets. Heppner, Oregon.
