ARS researchers report that a 120 by 365 foot feedlot on permeable soil near Central City shows limited nitrate pollution to shallow groundwater. Despite 1956 waste removal, nitrogen declines with depth, while aerobic and anaerobic zones drive nitrification and denitrification producing atmospheric gases.

Demand for ag graduates exceeds supply in Nebraska
Lincoln University of Nebraska agricultural education professor Toland Peterson says Nebraska has never had enough graduates to meet state needs. In 1970, 41 NU students graduated in agricultural education. 41 percent became vocational instructors, 17 percent joined the armed services, 10 percent advanced to graduate school, seven percent pursued farming or entrepreneurial ventures, and two percent became agents. Opportunities remain strong if 50 graduates per year were produced. Peterson criticizes misperceptions that agriculture is declining and urges recognizing its ongoing dynamism.
