Wheat Acreage Allotments Increased By 15 Percent
The Agriculture Department raised 1967 wheat planting allotments by 15 percent, boosting potential output to as much as 59.3 million acres for the year. The plan aims to keep farmers within the new caps to qualify for price supports and payments, with details pending and state allotments to be released later. The program reflects a shift away from payment for underplanting and targets a sizable reserve near 600 million bushels by July.

Cryo branding heats up cattle marking method
Researchers report on super cold branding using copper irons cooled in dry ice to apply to clipped cattle. The process aims to reduce pain and hide damage while producing white hair at the brand site. Early tests show legible marks with less epithelial damage than hot brands, though long term results and optimal conditions remain under study.
