Experiments Outlined For Milkweed Control
Nebraska agronomist Dr. Orvid Burnside outlined year long strategies at a North Central Weed Control Conference. He described milkweed as a stubborn perennial, spreading by seeds and creeping root segments, with germination across a wide temperature range and infested areas experiencing significant yield losses. He urged cultural, mechanical, and chemical controls over several years, including crop rotation to alfalfa or grasses, seedbed prep, shallow cultivation, and pre and post emergence herbicides such as metribuzin atrazine glyphosate and others.

FDA weighs feeding recycled animal waste as cattle feed
The FDA studies the feasibility of using dried animal waste as feed additives amid state experiments. While potential cost and protein benefits exist, concerns over disease, drug residues, and contaminants persist. States like Alabama California Colorado Mississippi Virginia Washington permit dried waste in some feeds. Florida Georgia Iowa Oregon register such ingredients, though FDA disapproval remains unless products cross state lines. About 1.7 billion tons of animal waste are produced annually with up to 143 million tons usable for feed.

1978 Farm set aside plans under review by Bergland
Agriculture Secretary Bergland says the 1978 acreage reduction program for corn and feed grains is "too close to call" with a 30 to 50 percent chance of activation. Prospective exports to the Soviet Union have improved while 300 million bushels of grain are snowbound. Prices and weather influence carryover, and a 10 percent set aside may be required if futures rise beyond thresholds.
