Benefits of Grain Plan for Minors Farmers
Growers who join the 1963 feed grain program gain four advantages says Roy Rector vice chairman of Rock Island County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee. They receive price support for sorghum, grain sorghum and barley and earn income from diverted acres. The price-support on established yield is assured and an advance diversion payment is possible at signup. Participants must reduce feed grain base acreage by at least 20 percent and divert the land to conserving use.

Management Tips for Starting Pigs in Muscatine County
Muscatine County swine producers, led by Extension Director Eugene Mathern, discuss early pig management. Emmett Sievermer of Iowa State says pigs can be weaned at any age but earlier weaning needs tighter care. Before weaning, introduce a good starter ration with 20 to 24 percent protein, and 1 percent for 1 week old pigs. Do not mix sows and litters before the pigs are two weeks old. if mixed, minimize pen mates. Pens must stay clean, dry, and draft-free to prevent baby pig scours. Provide clean water by two weeks old. Castration can be done anytime. early castration minimizes setbacks.
