Delmarva Poultry Manure Feed Study Planned
Maryland researchers push to test using chicken manure as livestock feed amid rising waste and broiler populations. Dr. Leonard Bull reports Cornell results showing air-dried manure mixed with ground corn can feed lactating cows without harming milk or flavor, while noting FDA limits on manure use for meat or milk. The Maryland project will address safety, reproduction in heifers, and potential regulatory approval, with collaboration from Dr. J Thomas Reid and Dr. Walter Williams.

Frederick County DHIA Board Guides Directs Activities
The Frederick County DHIA Board of Directors guides the dairy herd improvement program. The association has six full time and one part time employee who sample milk monthly and maintain production records for about 145 member farms with roughly 11 000 cows. About 22 to 25 percent of county cows participate in DHIA. Average production for DHIA herds was 12 908 pounds of milk and 495 pounds of butterfat per cow for the year ended April 1970. county cows averaged about 9 500 pounds of milk and 350 pounds of butterfat. Differences relate to improved feeding, breeding, and management from DHIA records. The Board meets every other month and works closely with the Frederick County Extension Service.
