Saving Feed Value of Hay Through Silage and Curing
Farmers waste about one quarter of hay feed value due to harvesting methods. Beltsville tests show grass silage saves 112 pounds of alfalfa protein per acre versus field curing, worth about $11.50 in linseed meal. Barn curing with forced air yields 78 pounds per acre saved. About 1,400 barns process hay this way. Progress in a Foot-and-Mouth Disease Campaign: U S and Mexican officials coordinate eradication across 15 Mexican states, with over 100 veterinarians from each country and 1,500 troops enforcing quarantine. Slaughter of infested animals occurs in outbreak centers, and cash payments for condemned stock are well received. Mosquitos Have Color Preference: Entomologists report mosquitos favor black, rue, and red. white and yellow are least attractive, colors may offer protection.
