Overview

Excerpt from The New Jersey Salt Marsh and Its Improvement In draining the Shrewsbury river marshes in 1904, the same sort of opposition from hay producers was encountered that we met on the Newark marshes, and it was objected that the ditches cut up the land and made work harder. Nevertheless, the work was done and the result is a crop just double - mostly from longer, thicker grass. Before 1904, two tons per acre was considered a good crop; now, good and bad together, it averages four tons, and local conditions furnish a market that pays $10 per ton!
