Feed a Variety for Better Livestock Diets

The guidance recommends feeding a variety of grains and byproducts to livestock. Ground corn oats wheat bran and either wax or cottonseed are suggested to achieve good results across different animals and conditions.

Practical Hints for Autumn Farm Work

Practical hints advise farmers to buy feed now at lower prices, store and paint equipment, feed wormy apples to stock, calf effort for baby beef, ensure hogs have clean water, allow poultry outdoors, plow ground for wheat, prune canes, burn vines and trash, control late cabbage pests, stock up powder, halter break costs, hatch early hens for Christmas profits, burn smut on corn stalks, select seed ears, burn cockle burrs, prepare apple barrels, cover strawberries later in month, and whitewash barns and poultry houses.

Mange in Horses versus Other Livestock Treatments

The article notes mange in horses is harder to treat than in sheep or cattle. Prevention is safer, and there is no single best treatment for dairy or other stock. Treatment depends on stock class, animal condition, and season, with no universal approach. Adequate forage like fresh clover and alfalfa supports dairy herd nutrition.
