Iowa Farm Outlook Shows Heavy Cattle Supplies Ahead
Iowa State University economist Gene Futrell expects heavy finished cattle supplies through 1965 with a generally better feeding year than 1964. Prices should rise modestly as feeders buy replacement stock cheaper, supporting favorable margins. cattle weights may stay light with steady marketing. Beef tonnage and prices likely inch above 1964 levels, aided by rising demand and population growth.

Market outlook for cattle and pests in Iowa
The feed and cattle market hints higher slaughter next summer and fall than 1964 with heavy cow marketing likely. Government beef purchases last year supported prices, but none since January. if absent, fed cattle prices may run slightly below 1964 by late summer. Iowa’s western corn rootworm caused 30 million dollars in losses in 1963 and 15 million in 1964, reduced by crop rotation and organophosphorus insecticides. 1.25 to 1.6 million acres were treated in 1964. some farmers still dispute the pest threat. Other pests reported include wire worms and white grubs. proper soil insecticide use could prevent losses. Drive carefully.

Control Soil Insects With Chemicals
Iowa Extension experts say black cutworm and western corn rootworm caused major 1964 damage. More than 1,000 acres per county were attacked. chemical control before planting with aldrin or leptachlor is 99 percent effective, but after half grown, results are poor. Annual Iowa losses since 1954 average 100,000 acres with at least five dollars per acre, prompting broader preplant management adoption.
