FARM MANAGEMENT IX CATAWBA COUNTY, N. C. 23 
On other lands corn should receive a prominent place. For this 
purpose a two-year rotation is suggested. (Rotation 6.) When 
the land is somewhat evenly divided between the upland and lowland 
the three-year cotton rotation and the two-year corn rotation together 
make a very desirable system. Of course these rotations may be 
varied to suit different conditions. 
Rotation 6. — Two-year lowland rotation for Catawba County, N. C, and other southern 
Piedmont areas. 
First year. Corx. Plow in April or later and plant corn from April to June; harvest 
in September or October; disk land and drill oats or other winter and spring 
crops. 
Second year. Oats. Harvest in May or June; plow or disk and plant cowpeas or 
soy beans for hay and seed; cover crop from September to April.
