These concerns, combined with diet and health concerns for eating red meat and …

Rp489 Impacting Private Sector Policy For Families, Georgia L. Stevens
Rp489 Impacting Private Sector Policy For Families, Georgia L. Stevens
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Who is caring for families(*) these days? Historically, we've had the notion that families needed to be self-sufficient. But, today, dramatic changes in family structure and family member's employment have shifted this thinking. As family policy educator and researcher Shirley Zimmerman (personal communication, April 26, 1993) states,
"increasingly it is recognized that the well-being of families is dependent on the functioning of other societal institutions, such as government and business. For this reason, government is taking an expanding interest in the role of the private sector, namely business and industry, for ensuring the health and economic security of workers and …

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This publication describes the most common types of ventilation fans and compares their physical and performance characteristics.
Two general types of ventilation fans are commonly used for agricultural applications. Each type has many different blade diameters, materials, blade shapes, speeds, and motor horsepowers available.

Other considerations include maintenance requirements, noise levels, and energy efficiency.

Ec95-816 Extending The Clean Water Act: Issues And Alternatives, Roy Frederick
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Author's note: This publication was written in the months immediately prior to the beginning of the 104th Congress in January 1995. While the basic issues ave not changed, the schedule for reauthorization of the Clean Water Act and the approach to issues may have been altered by the change in political-party leadership in the Congress. For example, wetlands policy and private property rights may be treated as separate pieces of legislation in 1995.
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, frequently referred to as the Clean Water Act (CWA), was last amended and updated in 1987. This reauthorization expired …

This fungal pathogen can be found on soybeans in Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and North Dakota. …

Nf95-218 Conjunctive Use Policy Options, William Miller
Nf95-218 Conjunctive Use Policy Options, William Miller
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Background
The hydrologic cycle controls water available for use. Rainfall, evaporation, runoff, percolation, and transpiration combine to influence the water available at a specific location at a particular point in time. The speed at which water moves among stages in the hydrologic cycle and the amount of time it spends in storage at any stage affects water availability to users. The conjunctive use issue refers to the portion of the hydrologic cycle where groundwater and surface water interface and influence each other.
Users who couldn't depend on an irregular flow of water over time developed systems that modify the variable …
