B812: Dairy Farmer Indebtedness In Maine, Wayne L. Thurston, George K. Criner, Ralph A. Reeb

Bulletins

The dairy industry in Maine is an important contributor to the agricultural sector and general economy. In 1982 there were 750 employees processing dairy products in Maine drawing a 12 million dollar payroll (Maine Bureau of Labor). The 1983 farm-gate value of milk produced in Maine totaled 108 million dollars, higher than any other single commodity's farm-gate value (Maine Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural Resources). For the past several years the farm level price of milk has remained fairly steady while production costs inflated. This "price-cost" squeeze worsened in 1983 with a 50 cent per hundredweight decrease in the …

B811: Field Appraisal Of Resource Management Systems Farms Crop Yield And Quality Relationships With Soil Erosion - 1982, Paul R. Hepler, Lauren H. Long, Kenneth J. Laflamme, John H. Wenderoth

Bulletins

This document presents the objectives and third-year results of the Field Appraisal of Resource Management Systems (FARMS) study. The principal objectives of FARMS were to study the relationship of crop yields to predicted soil erosion and to simulate the economics of this relationship. Crop management, soils, conservation practices and management, crop yields, soil chemistry, and sociological data were collected. The data analyzed in preparing this report are from the 800 plots sampled in 1982. This report presents statistics for rill and sheet soil erosion, which is estimated by the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and assumed to represent a long …

Bulletins

Hygrophori have been collected and identified with their possible ectomycorrhizal associates in Maine. Most of the ectomycorrhizal relationships reported from Maine were confirmed by the work of others. The information on edibility is from authors' popular mushroom guides. Colored photos of forty-four Hygrophori are included here.

Tb117: Techniques For Using The Growth And Behavior Of Imprinted Ducklings To Evaluate Habitat Quality, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr., Jack W. Witham, Jody Jones

Technical Bulletins

We developed a technique for evaluating duckling habitat quality that is based on two assumptions. In good habitat young birds (1) grow rapidly and thus are better able t o survive stresses such as inclement weather, and (2) spend relatively less time moving about in search of food and more time resting and thus are less conspicuous to predators. We imprinted artificially incubated and hatched ducklings by being present at the time of hatching; i.e., the ducklings thought we were their mother. Ducklings were split into broods and placed on ponds where their growth was measured and their behavior monitored …
