Farrowing to Finishing New Swine System Dream
Harrison Storandt near West Salem Wisconsin completed a two-building swine operation to farrow 80 litters yearly and finish 200 pigs at once. The system includes 20 farrowing pens with automatic feeders and waterers, a finished level cleaner, and a 50 by 70 foot finishing house with four pens for 200 pigs. Storandt funded design with UW engineers, built a unique double-cleaner drive, and expects future feeder-pig operation if market conditions permit. He shifted from Chester White stock after a rhinitis outbreak and now aims for quality pork with planned crossbreeding.

State Sets Two Records In Dairying
Madison Wisconsin farmers set two dairy records last year with the largest milk quantity sold and the highest cash income from milk in a single year. They sold more than 17 billion pounds of milk at an average price of 3.48 per hundredweight, totaling over 595 million dollars in cash receipts. The gains came from higher production and less milk fed to calves and used in households.
