Abstract
Conservation and improvement of the soil is one of the foremost problems facing farmers on the hilly Ida-Monona and associated soils that border the Missouri River bottomlands in western Iowa. Some changes in the present systems of farming, which center around grain crops and dry lot fattening of cattle and hogs, are necessary to control serious gully and sheet erosion.
