Weaning Lambs Under Pastoral Conditions, H Suijdendorp, L. Parsons
Weaning Lambs Under Pastoral Conditions, H Suijdendorp, L. Parsons
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN the summer rainfall region of the pastoral areas lambs are too often born too late to ensure their survival.
In good seasons with a fair measure of winter rain more late lambs will survive, but losses are still serious. The only solution to this problem is to make sure lambs drop in May-June.
But the presence of late and often unmarked lambs at mating time is a disturbing influence, which makes it hard to advance the established mating pattern.
The Sparrow, John L. Long
The Sparrow, John L. Long
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
SCATTERED widely throughout the world, sparrows are a nuisance wherever they have become established.
Two species have been introduced to Australia—the House sparrow (Passer domesticus) and the Tree sparrow (Passer montanus.)
Dingo Control : Organised Ground Baiting Drives At Mating Time, C D. Gooding, J. J. Freeth
Dingo Control : Organised Ground Baiting Drives At Mating Time, C D. Gooding, J. J. Freeth
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
DINGOES in Western Australia, like all "creatures of nature", have a well defined seasonal pattern of behaviour.
This is influenced somewhat by weather variations, but even in remote areas where violent fluctuations in rainfall occur from year to year, the dingo still breeds at roughly the same time.
The numbers of pups born and the numbers which survive each year varies a lot, but life goes on at roughly the same tempo under most seasonal conditions.
One Shot Baiting, C D. Gooding, L. A. Harrison
One Shot Baiting, C D. Gooding, L. A. Harrison
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE Agriculture Protection Board introduced the first of its contract poisoning schemes in 1955 in the lower South-West when three units undertook the first "1080" poisoning for farmers in Western Australia.
The originators of one-shot baiting describe this new technique and explain how it should be used for best results on the farm.
Effects Of Beaver On Stream Flow And Water Quality, James W. Bates
Effects Of Beaver On Stream Flow And Water Quality, James W. Bates
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Water, one of the major resources of the western lands, controls the economy and expansion of the communities. Industry, agriculture, timber, livestock, game and home water needs are all dependent upon a steady and continued flow of water from wells, springs, and rivers. Water is derived from one source, precipitation, which occurs in the form of rain and snow. Watersheds which are properly managed accumulate a substantial snow pack during the winter which is the life-giving source of water for our springs.
The Utah Water and Power Report (1948) indicates the annual precipitation over the entire state of Utah averaged …
Wallaby Control In The Kimberleys, C D. Gooding
Wallaby Control In The Kimberleys, C D. Gooding
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
EXPERIMENTS aimed at controlling sandy wallabies along the Fitzroy River frontage were started in 1952 by officers of the Agriculture Protection Board.
This work was undertaken in response to requests for assistance from some of the station owners and managers between Derby and Fitzroy Crossing.
Milking Routine, G R. Olney
Milking Routine, G R. Olney
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IT is well known that the condition of the milking machine is important for efficient and hygienic milking, but even with a machine in good condition good management during the milking process plays a leading part.
Bird Problems And Control In Western Australia, John L. Long
Bird Problems And Control In Western Australia, John L. Long
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
ALTHOUGH wild birds are mostly beneficial in Western Australia, there are certain species which are damaging to agriculture and the home gardener.
Vermin Control Research In Western Australia 1952-1962, C D. Gooding
Vermin Control Research In Western Australia 1952-1962, C D. Gooding
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Ten years ago this month the Agriculture Protection Board of Western Australia began setting up a section within its Vermin Control Branch to tackle some of the scientific aspects of vertebrate pest control.
C. D. Gooding, B.Sc. (Agric), reviews the first 10 years of vermin control research work in Western Australia.
Food For Thought In Rabbit Poisoning, J W. Leighton
Food For Thought In Rabbit Poisoning, J W. Leighton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
SINCE the introduction of the "1080" Poisoning Unit Scheme in 1955 by the Agriculture Protection Board reasonable control of rabbit numbers has been obtained.
Besides this many important side effects have resulted.
Vermin Symposium Report : Wanted : A New Approach To Rabbit Control, A R. Tomlinson
Vermin Symposium Report : Wanted : A New Approach To Rabbit Control, A R. Tomlinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE main reason why rabbits have not increased as rapidly as their amazing capabilities might have led people to expect has been a series of years not suitable for full breeding.
This has been more important than myxomatosis and "1080". This was one of the thoughts taken away by those who attended the rabbit control symposium held in Perth recently.
Control Of The Emu, C D. Gooding, J. L. Long
Control Of The Emu, C D. Gooding, J. L. Long
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Vermin research officers C. D. GOODING and J. L LONG give the latest recommendations for control of the emu, based on a series of observations and poisoning experiments in the northern wheatbelt.
Wild Dog Control In The North-West, R J. Fraser
Wild Dog Control In The North-West, R J. Fraser
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
BECAUSE of its sparsely-settled condition, the North-West of Western Australia is almost an ideal breeding-ground and hunting-ground for wild dogs.
Even the best of the pastoral country is but thinly populated and there are large areas of rugged country which is seldom traversed by white men.
Rabbit Control In 1960, C Marshall
Rabbit Control In 1960, C Marshall
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN the year 1859, an enthusiastic sportsman in Victoria took delivery from the clipper "Lightning" of a small consignment of wild European rabbits which he joyfully released on his estate at Barwon Park, near Geelong, in order to assure himself of some rough shooting.
He was not the only rabbit importer on record—tame rabbits were brought into Australia before and after 1895 and doubtless there were other importations of the wild rabbit—but he is generally credited—or discredited—with having triggered off the rabbit plague.
A Successful Campaign Against The Euro, E H M Ealey, T. M. Richardson
A Successful Campaign Against The Euro, E H M Ealey, T. M. Richardson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
RESULTS from a five-year research programme carried out by the C.S.I.R.O. on the Abydos-Woodstock Pastoral Research Station indicated that euros could be controlled in a practical and economic way by the traditional method of water poisoning,
if it was continued for an extended period and carried out over a large area. Smallscale trials supported this claim, but no opportunity had occurred to assess the practicability of a large-scale poisoning operation.
