Windbreak study highlights value of evergreens in farms
Pine and spruce windbreaks of about 30 feet reduce wind impact by 50 to 60 percent up to 120 feet away, says Daniel DenUyl of Purdue. Indiana tests show windbreaks raise temperatures 4 to 8 degrees at 120 feet, aiding heating. Recommend 3 to 6 rows of trees, 10 feet apart, planted in fall ground prep and spring planting. Suitable species include Scotch, red, white pines, arborvitae, and spruce. Care focuses on fire and livestock protection once established.

Vitamins Needed By Young Turkeys
Ohio State University findings show young turkeys need three times more vitamin G in feed to grow well and should receive as much vitamin G as feed with 16 percent dried milk until four weeks old. Producers should avoid cod liver oil or fish meal eight weeks before sale to prevent off flavors in white meat and drumsticks. Best growth occurred with at least 22 percent protein and free choice of grains with proper protein mash.
