Proper Milk Cooling Keeps Grade A Quality
Farm study shows milk must be cooled to 50 degrees or lower soon after milking to qualify as Grade A. Cooling methods include water, ice, or mechanical refrigeration with electric coolers, which use up to 30 kWh monthly to cool 10 gallons daily. An innovative setup adds an agitator to boost ice bank formation as cans are immersed.
Small Acreage Farmers Practice Conservation
A farming magazine notes that small farm operators are embracing soil conservation as affordable and effective. It recalls 1930s advice to reduce corn and small grains and keep land in grass or hay, yet thousands now report higher yields and even doubling production through conservation methods.
Heat Lamp Waterer Keeps Poultry Water Free of Ice
Broilers and laying hens require year round water. A heat lamp over a common waterer prevents freezing and keeps litter from wetting the area, reducing winter attention previously needed to thaw ice.
Dry Silage Lacks Vitamin A Content In Long Fermentation
Dry silage subjected to long high heat has little carotene or Vitamin A left, reducing nutrition. Farmers with multiple silos should start several days before kernels finish debting to avoid filling with rattle dry corn.
