Mr. Albert A. Francke, chairman of the Nebraska State Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, announced collaboration with sportmen to assist farmers in a wildlife program. The announcement outlines partnership details and expected benefits for farming operations and game management.
A Department of Agriculture revision allows sportsmen clubs to count their contributions toward a farm’s wildlife practices. Previously a $50 club donation on a $100 practice yielded $25 for the farmer. now the club’s $50 is credited and the farmer can receive up to half the total cost. If the club gives $60, the farmer’s reimbursement remains $40. Federal aid covers herbaceous cover, trees or shrubs for wildlife, wetlands, and pond creation in Nebraska.
The advisory outlines cost sharing that covers about half the cost of wildlife practices such as planting food plots and building ponds. It urges farmers and wildlife enthusiasts to collaborate on conservation on Nebraska farms, with Osceola ASCS Office handling details.

University of Nebraska extension animal expert Paul Guyer outlines salt needs for a 1000 pound steer. He estimates about 0.03 pounds per head daily, noting variation by conditions and that salt could restrict intake if fed at higher levels. He suggests salt may be used to control consumption in range protein supplements or drylot self-feeding programs.
Walter Bagley of the College of Agriculture reports trials on windbreaks finding no significant difference in survival or growth for trees fertilized at planting. Tests covered nitrogen phosphorus and potassium with moisture availability being the key factor for establishment and later growth.
University Extension Forester Karl Loerch says a complete fertilizer high in nitrogen is generally recommended to improve tree growth. He explains the nitrogen-rich mix supports vigorous development and overall health of landscape trees.
Heavy mulching reduces rainfall infiltration, fosters rodent damage, and promotes shallow rooting making windbreak trees vulnerable to drought. Studies show mulching lowers survival and growth. clean cultivation or careful chemical use yields better establishment. If used, keep mulch under an inch, materials like corn cobs woodchips hay or straw advised.
