Research Report No. 25, Frmps: A Forest Resource Management Planning Simulator For East Texas Pine Plantations, Tom Hartz

Informal Project Reports

FRMPS is designed to provide a landowner an opportunity to simulate the establishing, growing and harvesting of lob lolly pine ( Pinus taeda L.) and slash pine ( Plnus elltotti Engelm. ) plantations in East Texas. Also included in the model is a procedure to s1mulate the growing of an existing non-plantation with a future conversion to ptne plantet1on. The effect of different cash flows from various activities and operations is analyzed using net present value as the decision-making criterion. FRMPS runs on a Macintosh SE or 11 personal computer and requires STELLA FOR BUSINESS v. 2. 1 software.

G90-999 Nutritional Management Of The High-Producing Dairy Cow In The 1990s, Rick J. Grant, Jeffrey F. Keown

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses important aspects of grouping and feeding systems, body conditioning, and nutritional requirements for high-producing dairy cows.

An effective feeding system allows maximum intake of a nutritionally balanced ration. The use of production-enhancing compounds, such as Bovine Somatropin (BST), makes proper nutritional management of high-producing dairy cows even more critical. This NebGuide discusses important aspects of grouping and feeding systems, body conditioning, and nutritional requirements for high-producing dairy cows.

As herd production levels continue to increase along with the average herd size, it is becoming more difficult for many dairy producers to feed their cattle adequate nutrients to …

Reports

This report summarizes data collected by the Virginia· Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) trawl survey monthly cruises for January through December, 1989. The trawl survey is a long term, broad scope monitoring program. Its primary goal is to produce annual indices of juvenile (young-of-year) abundance of commercially, recreationally and ecologically important marine and estuarine finfish and crustaceans. The objective is to provide indices of sufficient accuracy and precision for both immediate resource management needs and long-term understanding of environmental influences on fishery resources. A second important product of this effort is the documentation and monitoring of habitat utilization by juveniles …
