By John Finlay Agricultural Representative COOL WEATHER STRESSES CROPS The continuing cool weather, weather, with the loss of valuable heat units is affecting many agricultural crops in the Durham Durham East area. Hardest hit has been the asparagus crop with yields down from 25 to 50 per cent over last year. The season for asparagus ends in about two weeks. The numerous frosts have caused damage to the strawberry strawberry crop, as well, particularly particularly the 1st and 2nd pickings. The harvesting of forage crops is just getting underway, about 10 days behind normal. Yields are expected to be slightly below average. Spring grains are making better growth after a slow start. Several acres intended for spring grain are shifted to other crops or will not beseeded. The planting season for corn has stretched from the 1st of May to June 10th. Many farmers have planted 2300 to 2400 early maturing corn hybrids. The yield potential for these hybrids is 25 - 30 per cent lower than that of the normal 2800 to 2900 heat unit varieties. We do not recommend that any corn be seeded after June 10th. The canning crops have also been delayed with the planting of peas extended to June 12th, kidney beans to June 15th, sweet corn to June 20th. Soybeans are being planted at time of writing this column, but we should not encourage planting later than June 15th. Early planted potatoes have had some difficulty with germination. Most agricultural products will not be seriously affected in the marketplace because of competitive crops from the United States and other parts of Canada. Any shortages that might occur in feed grains and forage will not be a factor until late fall or winter, when livestock livestock numbers might be adjusted. As one elderly farmer says: "I have never seen the barn go empty in all my years, and I don't expect it to start now!"
