Plywood Hog Houses Tested At Purdue Station

Tests at Purdue Experiment Station compare portable hog houses built from four by eight foot plywood to those using four by eight foot lumber. Plywood versions are lighter and about 20 percent more rigid, suggesting lifespans at least 20 percent longer, though they run one or two degrees colder in extreme cold and need more ventilation to avoid interior frost. The lighter, rigid design aids mobility and hog rubbing, but cost and life expectancy depend on conditions.

Cultivating Soybeans Cuts Lodging and Boosts Yield

Farmers found cultivated row soybeans lodge far less than drilled ones on fertile soil. In a test, 2 bushels per acre drilled solid lodged badly and yielded 36 percent husks of beans, while 1 bushel per acre in cultivated rows avoided lodging and produced 89 bushels per acre. The method saves seed and may hasten ripening, aiding early frost risk.

Best Size For Seed Corn And Turkey Egg Fertility Tips

Purdue tests show seed size offers minor yield gains in the same variety with proper planter plates, large seeds growing slightly faster. South Carolina studies find increasing turkey egg fertility by using all night lighting, limiting hens, and alternating flock tam schedules, with fertility remaining high into late spring across different flock sizes.
