University’s ag research studies on solar energy may help farmers
By ELAINE ELMER
Staff writer
Farmers who face higher
prices for fossil fuels—and
consumers who feel the pinch
of higher food prices could
gain some long-term aid from
the University's program of
agricultural research
Solar energy is a potential
source of power for agricul
ture. and an ongoing research
program, involving University
faculty and government agen
cies, aims to harness the
power of the sun for use on the
farm

UGA Union presents
The purpose of the Univer
sity solar energy research is
the "evaluation of low cost
solar collection," according to
Dr. R H Brown, chairman of
the division of agricultural,
engineering
"We propose a solar water
heating system with concrete
tanks insulated in the ground."
Brown added
Solar assisted heat is a
reality and one University
project aims toward retrofit
ting existing grain and animal
houses. The project is working
for a system which will not be
dependent on fossil fuels,
prices and availability
The final system will not
directly use any fossil fuels
The system will have four
possibilities for heating: solar,
wind, biomass burning (the
burning o( organic matter),
and “off peak" electric use
The use ol electricity during
"off-peak” hours (usually mid
night to 6:00 ami allows for
lower power costs
Solar energy is not limited to
heat or energy directly from
the sun. Brown said.
"Wind energy and biomass
burning are also solar " he
added, as these energy sources
are dependent on the sun.
1969 marked the first use of
solar energy in agriculture at
the University. The oil embar
go of 1973 caused the rise of
other solar energy projects.
Solar heat can be used in
several ways after the initial
healing of the water which is
held in the storage tanks
The most common form is a
system of pipes buried in a
concrete floor The hot water
(at approximately 140 lo ISO
degrees I is run through the
pipes and Ihe heal rises from
the floor to heat Ihe existing
unit.
Convectors in the walls of
the building have also been
used in the Southeast Poultry
Research Laboratory of the
USD A. The convectors have a
radiator effect and warm the
poultry house.
Heat exchanges are another
form of extracting heal from
water
Ot course the evaluation of
the cost for solar energy units
is based on the current cost of
energy When the price of
electricity and gas rise, Ihe
feasibility ol solar energy
healing also rises.
The items were taken
between 8:30 p.m Monday and
7:20 a m Tuesday, police said
Tom Rogers, assistant of the
4-H youth group on campus,
said maintenance workers
discovered a broken glass door
to the 4-H office Tuesday
morning.
“The discovery aroused sus
picion," Rogers said, and the
office workers then noticed
that some coffee money in one
of the desks, less than $13 had
been taken The storage room
of the club was then checked,
and the equipment was dis
covered missing.
A window was discovered
broken on the first floor of the
building, and the thieves
probably entered the building
through it, Rogers said
The equipment belonged to
the 4H club members, not to
the University. Rogers said
The stereo was used for disco
dances held by the club The
property was not insured and
the club will be affected by Ihe
loss, not the University,
