Dairy cattle spraying may boost summer milk profits says expert
H. B. Petty of the University of Illinois College of Agriculture projects a potential profit of at least 78 this summer from spraying dairy cows with methoxychlor to control flies. He notes a 16 percent milk boost through fly season, with costs of spraying at 20 to 25 cents per head and recommends regular barn spraying every two to four weeks for horn fly control.
