Scientists Seek to Unlock Secret of Soybean Usage
University of Missouri researchers funded by the ASA Research Foundation study how soybeans obtain and metabolize nitrogen. They find nodules fix nitrogen and reduce soil nitrates, reshaping understanding of soybean metabolism to aid future yields. Experiments use stable nitrogen isotopes to map nitrate reduction and fixation across growth stages.

Quarantine for Farm Show Poultry After Exhibition
Poultry shown at the Farm Show should be isolated from the main flock for at least 30 days due to exposure to diseases not common to the origin. If no illness appears, they may be returned. if disease occurs they should stay separated. Vaccination helps prevent many breaks but some bacteria like coryza and fowl cholera lack reliable vaccines. Watch for coccidiosis 1 to 3 weeks after returning home.
