Farmers Nearing End Of Planting Season In Hard, Green Fields
Farmers report many acres still unplowed and to be planted as June conditions slow work. Much fall plowing remains to be redone to kill weeds and loosen hard ground. Even planted corn requires plowing and rotary hoes to break a crust formed by prior rains.
Piga Should be Vaccinated When Light Weight
Farmers vaccinate pigs when they are light in weight and ten days before weaning to reduce cost and ease handling. Delayed vaccination due to late spring and rain led to more losses from cholera outbreaks last summer and fall.
