Farm Layout And Field Arrangements, H. Mccullough

SDSU Extension Circulars

Farm layout involves the location of the fields with respect to the farmstead and public highways, the size, shape and number of fields, and the location of hog-lots, feed yards, etc. In arranging or re-arranging a farm layout the most important considerations are convenience and economy of operation. An ideal farm layout is so arranged that there shall be a minimum of time consumed, no retracing of steps and no lost motion in doing the routine work of the farm.
