Agriculture. Guayule cultivation. Newly-seeded guayule nursery beds. Guayule seeds are very fine and delicate and cannot be planted as other seeds. A specially constructed machine drops the seeds on a very carefully prepared seedbed and then covers the seed with a band of white sand to prevent the wind from blowing them away. The seedbeds are kept damp by frequent application of the overhead sprinking system until the little plants are up and rooted. Three large nurseries at the new Salinas Valley, California, project established last spring, contain 890 of such beds and produced 310 million plants now being transplanted to about 30,000 acres of field plantations
