Lambing Problems In Summer Rainfall Areas, H Suijdendorp
Lambing Problems In Summer Rainfall Areas, H Suijdendorp
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
LOW lambing percentages have become a serious problem in the summer rainfall areas in the North-West of Western Australia.
Largely as a result of poor nutrition of the lambing ewes, lamb marking figures have fallen to the stage where keeping up stock numbers is extremely difficult.
Vitamins And Their Relationship To Animal Health, J Shilkin
Vitamins And Their Relationship To Animal Health, J Shilkin
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
NUTRITIONAL problems are assuming more and more importance in stock as the years progress and while much stress is sometimes placed on the role of vitamins in nutrition, one should not lose sight of the fact that they are only part of a balanced ration which should include other constituents, such as proteins, carbohydrates and fats in suitable proportions.

Points On Producing Better Pigs, P C. Beck
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THERE are many factors to be considered in the production of quality pigmeat which today is the demand of the housewife.
Poor quality means two things, bad advertisement for the industry and low returns to the producer.

Saving Labour In Feeding Calves, R A. Bettenay
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
PRESENT day values are such that no farmer can afford not to dispose of his calves to the best advantage.
With the lighter breeds this might still mean vealing all bull calves within a week of birth, but with heavier breeds it is now more economical to keep all calves until they are at least six to eight months old.

The Open Range System Of Pig Farming, S R. Dunstan
The Open Range System Of Pig Farming, S R. Dunstan
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THERE are several satisfactory systems which can be employed in planning a piggery, but under West Australian conditions, the paddock system has much to commend it.
Grazing admits an animal to the healthy influences of sunlight and stimulates exercise. The digestive processes of the pig are also stimulated and this helps to bring about more efficient utilisation of the feed.
Palatability Of Forage Plants In North-West Sheep Pastures, R H. Collett
Palatability Of Forage Plants In North-West Sheep Pastures, R H. Collett
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A DECLINE in carrying capacity has occurred in large areas of the Pilbara district of the North-West, due to the decrease in palatable plants and the increase in unpalatable ones.
The relative palatability of the various species to sheep is therefore a matter of considerable importance to pastoralists.

Selecting A Herd Sire, R A. Bettenay
Selecting A Herd Sire, R A. Bettenay
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THERE is now ample evidence that most of the differences in production between herds are determined by feeding and management, with differences in genetic merit playing a relatively minor role.
It seems that the quickest way to increase production is by improved feeding, whilst in some herds much production is being lost by faulty milking techniques.
Tree Lucerne : A Fodder Crop With A Future, Laurence C. Snook
Tree Lucerne : A Fodder Crop With A Future, Laurence C. Snook
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN December, 1952, an article was published in this Journal drawing attention to the potential value of white flowered tree lucerne (Cytisus prolifer) as a source of nutritious green fodder during the dry summer months.
Figures were quoted to show that heavy yields could be obtained year after year with very little effort, and no outlay other than for fertiliser.
The advantages to be gained from the cultivation of this tree were made very apparent and many farmers set out to grow the shrub.

Hay For The Dairy Herd : Quality Or Quantity?, F E. Ryan
Hay For The Dairy Herd : Quality Or Quantity?, F E. Ryan
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
CONSERVATION of hay on dairy farms has increased in recent years but so far emphasis has been on quantity rather than quality and in some districts paddocks are closed up very early to increase yields per acre of hay.
Recent trials have shown that late closing of hay paddocks on dairy farms gives higher quality hay, more winter grazing and a better balanced pasture. The gain in quality more than compensates for any drop in yield.
Correcting Cobalt Deficiency, Laurence C. Snook
Correcting Cobalt Deficiency, Laurence C. Snook
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
COBALT is essential in the food eaten by sheep and cattle. As little as one part of cobalt in 10,000,000 parts of food appears to be adequate.
But if this mere trace is missing, ruminants will waste away and die, even when the feed appears excellent In every other way.

The Effect Of Feeding Various Levels Of Fluoride To Dairy Cattle On Their Pepsin Activity, Hassan Sabeti-Rahmati
The Effect Of Feeding Various Levels Of Fluoride To Dairy Cattle On Their Pepsin Activity, Hassan Sabeti-Rahmati
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
In certain industrial areas fluorides are present in various amounts in the atmosphere. These fluorides are liberated by industrial processes at high temperature in treatment of materials containing fluoride, either as a natural impurity, or as added material for technical purposes. Equipment and procedures have been installed in many plants to reduce the output of fluorides significantly, yet forage and hay grown near the plants may contain elevated amounts of fluorides. The feeding of such material to young livestock for many months may cause fluorosis or chronic fluoride poisoning. Some springs contain a high concentration of fluorides and the continuous …
