Honeybee Pollination Of Crops, Lee Allan, V. Kesvan, G. Kleinschmidt, P. Anning

Bulletins 4000 -

Pollination of horticultural and agricultural crops is being recognised throughout Australia by quality growers who wish to improve crop quality and quantity, to increase their returns from produce sold on local and export markets. Some growers are able to target specific high value markets using planned pollination to maximise their income.

G93-1177 Feeding And Managing Holstein Steers, Rick J. Grant, Rick Stock, Terry L. Mader

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide discusses feeding and management practices to maximize feedlot performance, carcass quality, and profitability of Holstein steers. Holstein Steers vs Conventional Breeds Holstein steers usually are placed in the feedlot either as light-weight (250 to 350 pounds) calves or as feeders (600 to 800 pounds). The growth of Holstein feeder steers is generally more consistent than for conventional beef breeds.

Ec93-447 Documents For Decision Making: Living Wills And Medical Durable Powers Of Attorney, Georgia L. Stevens

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Every person has a unique belief system including personal values based on family traditions, life experience, spiritual and religious beliefs, and knowledge. Medical decisions that we make for ourselves are based on those beliefs and values that matter most to us. Most of us are aware of the court battles that have raged over "right to die" cases.

This publication helps a person understand the meaning of the living will and medical durable powers of attorney.

G93-1139 Using The Dairy Herd Analyzer Program To Troubleshoot Management Problems, Jeffrey F. Keown, Rick J. Grant

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Here's a logical approach to solving your herd's reproductive, nutritional, genetic and milk quality problems using the Dairy Herd Analyzer program.

The Dairy Herd Analyzer program was developed at Kansas State University. The program uses information on the DHIA-202 form to aid a producer in identifying areas that need to be addressed to improve productivity and overall herd management. The analysis specifically targets four management areas: reproduction, milk quality, nutrition and genetics.

G93-1126 Crambe Production, Lenis Alton Nelson, Alan Grombacher, David D. Baltensperger

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This is a complete guide to the specifics of crambe production, from seedbed preparation to harvesting, storage and marketing. Crambe (Crambe abyssinica) is an oil crop from the mustard family. The seed contains 30 to 35 percent oil with 40 to 60 percent erucic acid in the oil. The erucic acid oil content of crambe is 8-9 percent more than that of rapeseed.

G93-1184 Bovine Ocular Neoplasia, L. J. Perino, D. D. Griffin, D. G. Rogers

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide will aid in the early identification and proper management of bovine ocular neoplasia, commonly known as cancer eye, including appropriate veterniary care. The common name for bovine ocular neoplasia, also known as ocular squamous cell tumors, is cancer eye. The term cancer eye is not entirely accurate and carries negative connotations. As we will explain in this NebGuide not all of these growths are cancerous. The scientific term for a cow is "bovine," the medical term for the eye is "ocular," and the medical term for these new and abnormal growths is "neoplasia." Thus, the term bovine ocular …

Review Of The Origins Of Agriculture And Settled Life By Richard S. Macneish. Norman And London: University Of Oklahoma Press, 1992. 433 Pages., Alan J. Osborn

Department of Anthropology: Faculty Publications

Excerpt:

Following a brief review of the "environmentalist's" (e. g., Ratzel, de Candolle, Childe, Braidwood, and Flannery) and the "materialist's" (e. g., Marx, Vavilov, D. Harris, Binford, and Cohen) accounts, MacNeish presents his "trilinear theory." It consists of "three hypothetical models and three hypotheticaI sets of causes" for the development of plant domestication and sedentism. This "trilinear theory" is a world culture history similar to the multilinear developmental frameworks proposed "by Julian Steward (The Theory of Culture Chtange: The Methodology of Multilinear Evolution, 1955). MacNeish's multilinear scheme is cross-cut by three developmental stages, i. e., food collectors, transitional …

G93-1172 Starting Cattle, Dicky D. Griffin, Louis Perino, Don Hudson

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide gives guidelines to help feedlot operators prepare and establish a plan for starting new cattle on feed that minimizes stress, reduces morbidity (sickness) and improves performance.

An animal's first few weeks in a feedlot can influence performance throughout the entire feeding period. The cattle are adapting to a new environment and may be exposed to disease, some for the first time. It is vitally important to prevent and deal with health problems at this time to prevent loss of performance.

Cattle entering the feedlot encounter a range of problems that arise from several sources, including health and nutritional …
