FLAME CULTIVATION....

■
Halfway—Flame cultivation as a
means of weed control has made the
full cycle, from research to the farm-
er. Harold Hinkle of Plainview,
working with his local LPG dealer,
has worked toward complete weed
weed control using the research in-
formation developed by the High
Plains Research Foundation. Now
the High Plains Research Foundation
has been able to see research go from
the experimental to the applied.
Hinkle, a 26-year old farmer locat-
ed 9 miles north and one and one-half
miles west of Plainview, has been
flaming his crops for the past three
years. His objective is toward total
weed control.
Harold has been farming the same
quarter section for seven years and
reports that he has been able to cut
his weed control costs in cotton from
$20.00 per acre to $8.97 using both
flame and hand hoeing. Hinkle states
that on his present cotton crop, his
cost for weed control is: $5.71 per
acre for hoe labor and with two
flamings, the first of which cost him
$0.36 per acre and the second cost
him $0.90. Harold feels that he must
then add a cost of $1.00 per acre per
flaming for the cost of his flame cul-
tivator.
rr
On the other crops that are grown
on his farm, the cost breakdown in-
dicates that it cost $10.00 to $12.00
per acre for weed control with con-
ventional tillage tools as compared
with a cost of $1.45 lay-by with his
flame cultivator. With sorghum,
Hinkle, who did not practice any
type of weed control stated, “When I
did not use flame, all I had was a
grown up mess!” Now, using heat as
an economical means of weed control
in the grain sorghum crop, his cost is:
for the first flaming $0.45 plus $1.00
for use of the flame cultivator and
$0.81 for the second flaming.
One other full cycle from the High
Plains Research Foundation that can
be found on the Hinkle farm is the
HINN soybean. The HINN developed
by the Foundation is the first soy-
bean developed for this area of Tex-
as. Hinkle, a supporter of the Foun-
dation, has planted the HINN bean
to complete one more step going
from the Foundation and its research
to the farmer.
The planting of the HINN soy-
bean, as an example of the new crop
research for the area, combined with
other research at the Foundation
helps the farmer produce better
crops more efficiently and economi-
cally. -
Don't Go Another Tear Without This Modern
Method of Weed Control Now is the time to plan
for next year's crop with flame cultivation.
