Good Management For The Springers Pays Dividends, J Y. Langdon Jan 1966

Good Management For The Springers Pays Dividends, J Y. Langdon

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

This article gives a striking example of the advantages of calving cows in good and rising condition—and explains why condition around calving time is so important.

ALTHOUGH most farmers know that cows calving in good and improving condition will give higher yields than those calving in poor condition, few use this knowledge to improve the production from their cows.


Stocking Rates On Cyprus Barrel Medic In The Northern Wheatbelt, R J. Parkin Jan 1966

Stocking Rates On Cyprus Barrel Medic In The Northern Wheatbelt, R J. Parkin

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

IN May 1963, some three weeks after germination, a 4th year stand of Cyprus barrel medic was stocked with Merino wethers.

These same sheep are still grazing the area after three years.


Twinning Increases Production, K P. Croker Jan 1966

Twinning Increases Production, K P. Croker

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Many breeders claim that twinning causes too many losses among Merino lambs and does not favour breeding for twin lamb production.

But recent experiments have proved otherwise and agricultural scientists now agree that . . .

TWINNING INCREASES PRODUCTION

THE low marking percentages regularly recorded for Merino flocks suggest that the Merino is a relatively infertile breed.

Certainly, lambing percentages are low when compared with those of most British breeds of sheep.


Heavy Rate Set Stocking : Esperance Downs Research Station, R J. Doyle Jan 1966

Heavy Rate Set Stocking : Esperance Downs Research Station, R J. Doyle

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THIS article describes a stocking rate demonstration in one paddock at Esperance Downs Research Station, using Merino wethers.

Since December 1961, the area has supported 530 to 540 Merino wethers under continuous grazing.


More Sheep Per Acre, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia Jan 1966

More Sheep Per Acre, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

In the late 1950's agricultural scientists in Western Australia became convinced that much of the improved pasture in the agricultural areas of the State was going to waste.

The results of the early trials resulted in many farm demonstrations of higher carrying capacities on improved pastures in southern agricultural areas.


Stocking Rates On Light Land : Wongan Hills Research Station, R J. Lightfoot, W. L. Mcgarry Jan 1966

Stocking Rates On Light Land : Wongan Hills Research Station, R J. Lightfoot, W. L. Mcgarry

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE two most important things that determine the rate of return on invested capital in Merino sheep breeding and grazing are the stocking rate and lambing percentage.


Rate Of Stocking, Rate Of Fertiliser In The Chapman Valley, R J. Parkin Jan 1966

Rate Of Stocking, Rate Of Fertiliser In The Chapman Valley, R J. Parkin

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE Chapman Valley embraces a relatively small area of country, following generally the course of the Chapman River.

The Chapman Valley proper extends from just north-east of Geraldton to Nanson, Nabawa and Naraling and includes on its fringes, areas of Narra Tarra, Moonyoonooka and areas west of Nabawa towards Northampton.


The Avondale Stocking Rate Experiment, L D. White, R. J. Lightfoot, R. N. Glencross Jan 1966

The Avondale Stocking Rate Experiment, L D. White, R. J. Lightfoot, R. N. Glencross

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THERE is now ample evidence that stocking rates well above the usual district levels can be carried in the Avon Valley.

However, many aspects of increasing stocking rates still require investigation, particularly with lambing ewes and young sheep.


Values Of Commonly-Used Protein Supplements In Broiler Rations, D F. Hessels Jan 1966

Values Of Commonly-Used Protein Supplements In Broiler Rations, D F. Hessels

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE performances of broiler flocks in the latter part of 1964 were below standard. Low body weights and a high incidence of gizzard erosion were common on farms.

It was therefore decided to test the biological valuss of the commonly-used protein supplements and also to try to find a correlation between gizzard erosion and any of the protein supplements.

Comparisons Of Broiler Rations, D F. Hessels

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

PELLETS are the most profitable feed for broiler chickens—but when they contain about two-thirds cereal, does it pay a country grower to pay freight on pellets when cereals are plentiful in his district?

Agricultural Problems And Economic Growth In East Pakistan, Asad-Ud-Dowla Chowdhurry May 1965

Agricultural Problems And Economic Growth In East Pakistan, Asad-Ud-Dowla Chowdhurry

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

Pakistan came into existence on August 14, 1947, by the partitioning of what was British India. The basis for the division was the desire of the Moslem population of India to form a sovereign state. Since the country was established in the sections of India which were predominantly Moslem, Pakistan emerged in the form of two blocks, East and West Pakistan. They are two provinces separated from each other by over 1000 miles.


Managing Change In The Livestock Industry Of South Dakota: Papers Presented At The Fourth Annual Agri-Business Day 1965, South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station, Department Of Economics, South Dakota State University Apr 1965

Managing Change In The Livestock Industry Of South Dakota: Papers Presented At The Fourth Annual Agri-Business Day 1965, South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station, Department Of Economics, South Dakota State University

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

It is appropriate that the annual agri-business day program address itself to the current status and future potential of South Dakota's largest industry, the meat animal business. The 1965 program is the fourth in a series designed to probe opportunities for increased economic development of human and physical resources in our state. If maximum development is to take place, we must study every resource, discuss it, and then determine how we might harness it to fit man's social, cultural, and economic goals. South Dakota State University is proud of its long tradition of helping individuals and groups solve problems. But …

Irrigation And Fertilization Practices For Seed Production From Established Stands Of Side-Oats Grama, D. E. Smika, L. C. Newell Mar 1965

Irrigation And Fertilization Practices For Seed Production From Established Stands Of Side-Oats Grama, D. E. Smika, L. C. Newell

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The objectives of this study of grass seed production were to determine the response of an established stand of a warm-season grass to irrigation and fertilizer practices with regard to the specific practices needed to produce maximum quantity of adequate quality seed per acre. Side-oats grama was chosen for the study because of the availability of adapted varieties.

Air Applicator Information Series

Where to obtain authentic and needed information is a problem in every new industry. The purpose of this volume is to provide classified lists of sources of material and information.

There is a wealth of information available in the field of agricultural aviation. This material, however, is obtainable in piecemeal form and from many sources. State colleges of agriculture, the United States Department of Agriculture, city and county libraries, chemical and agricultural magazines, chemical companies and state departments of aeronautics are a few of the sources. This volume presents these and other channels of pertinent information for the air-applicator who …

Kimberley Research Station Progress Report, 1964 : Introduction, W M. Nunn

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE Ord Irrigation settlement has recently planted its second commercial crop of cotton.

Research and planning toward the development project has been systematic over the last 20 years and has included hydrological surveys and dam-site investigations by the Public Works Department soil and topographical surveys by both the Department of Agriculture and C.S.I.R.O., and concerning farming methods both by research station investigations and by pilot farming.
