Feeding And Managing Dairy Calves And Heifers, David J. Schingoethe, Alvaro Garcia Nov 2001

Feeding And Managing Dairy Calves And Heifers, David J. Schingoethe, Alvaro Garcia

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

If improved breeding and management practices are followed heifers will most likely be better than the cows in the dairy herd today. Costs of raising a heifer to 24 months of age may range between $800 and $1,500 depending on the farm. If heifers calve at more than 24 months of age, $2 per day are lost in feed, herd replacements and lifetime production. Although reducing the calving age may have a positive impact on profitability, heifers must grow at an optimal rate to avoid calving problems and to have a successful first lactation. Some practices recommended for raising heifers …

Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs Oct 2001

Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The paper provides an overview of the types of economic costs, benefits, and risks involved with agricultural biotechnology at the farm level, at the market level, and for the farm and food system as a whole. Both advantages and disadvantages of agricultural biotechnology are discussed. Among the drivers of the US domestic and international consumer demand for transgenic crop products discussed in the paper are environmental and food safety concerns. A comparison is made between a 'science-based' regulatory framework and a policy based on the precautionary principle. The authors argue that open dialogue is needed for achieving improved public understanding …

An Empirical Investigation In To The Factors Influencing The Economic Incentive To Retain Ownership Of Weaned Steer Calves, Scott Fausti, Brad Johnson, William Epperson, Nancy Grathwohl Sep 2001

An Empirical Investigation In To The Factors Influencing The Economic Incentive To Retain Ownership Of Weaned Steer Calves, Scott Fausti, Brad Johnson, William Epperson, Nancy Grathwohl

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

Marketing and production data collected from weaned calves (628 head) in a university sponsored retained ownership demonstration program are analyzed to identify factors affecting the annualized rate of return when retaining ownership versus selling the calves at weaning. Data were collected on the following characteristics associated with the calves: 1) ranch-of-origin production management practices; 2) feedlot performance; 3) carcass merit; 4) health history; and 5) market prices. Retained ownership until slaughter was more profitable, on average, when compared to selling calves at weaning. The calculated annualized rate of return to retained ownership versus selling calves at weaning averaged 11.5% per …

Does The Producer Have An Incentive To Sell Fed Cattle On A Grid?, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi Sep 2001

Does The Producer Have An Incentive To Sell Fed Cattle On A Grid?, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

Barriers to the adoption of grid pricing by fed cattle producers are investigated over a 206-week period (Jan. 1997 to Dec. 2000). The empirical findings document: I) when fed cattle are evaluated on a grid pricing system versus a dressed weight pricing system, a price differential per cwt. and a per-head revenue differential exists over time, 2) the price differential per cwt. is subject to seasonal variation which contributes to inconsistent price signals transmitted to producers concerning the market value of carcass characteristics over time; 3) grid revenue per-head variability is consistently higher than dressed weight revenue per-head variability over …

Managing Feedlot Cattle To Reduce Nutrient Waste, Julie Walker, Brad Johnson Aug 2001

Managing Feedlot Cattle To Reduce Nutrient Waste, Julie Walker, Brad Johnson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Management opportunities can reduce feed costs and the cost of excess nutrient waste outputs. The key to controlling excess nutrient output is controlling nutrient intakes. The question becomes whether nutrient excretion can be reduced without negatively impacting animal performance?

Random Walks, Lemmings, And Behaviorism; The Search For A Market Lodestar, John Sondey Apr 2001

Random Walks, Lemmings, And Behaviorism; The Search For A Market Lodestar, John Sondey

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

Random Walk: Burton Malkiel defines a random walk as "one in which future steps or directions cannot be predicted on the basis of past actions." Within the context of the stock market, a random walk for a stock's price means that it is as likely to fall as to rise, regardless of previous price performance (Malkiel, 1996). To hold the random walk hypothesis as truth is to foresake all punditry regarding fundamental and technical analysis and to abandon long-standing shibboleths such as evolving industries and sectoral rotation. Essentially, random walk implied that "winners" could not consistently be picked. The Wall …

South Dakota's Hog Market: Developments And Prospects, Matthew Diersen Mar 2001

South Dakota's Hog Market: Developments And Prospects, Matthew Diersen

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

This paper examines the developments that have occurred in South Dakota's swine industry and offers insights into its future prospects. Data, trends, and literature related to this market were gathered in an effort to fill in specific gaps about South Dakota's market. Nationally and in South Dakota there are fewer producers raising hogs. The exit of relatively small producers from the industry reduced a seasonal spike of farrowings during the March-May quarter in recent years. A growing trend of in shipments, where feeder pigs are brought into South Dakota, finished, and marketed, has partially offset the reduction in farrowings. An …

Effects Of Un-Ionized Ammonia On Hydropsyche Morosa Hagen Larava Net And Retreat Construction, Althea Caraway, N. H. Troelstrup Jr. Jan 2001

Effects Of Un-Ionized Ammonia On Hydropsyche Morosa Hagen Larava Net And Retreat Construction, Althea Caraway, N. H. Troelstrup Jr.

Oak Lake Field Station Research Publications

The objectives of this study were to (1) describe natural variability in retreat and net mesh dimensions and retreat and net tending behavior for the hydropsychid caddisfly Hydropsyche morosa Hagen and (2) perform laboratory experiments to determine the influence of un-ionized ammonia on H. morosa retreat and net construction. H. morosa were collected from fifteen streams in eastern South Dakota and head capsules, nets, and retreats were photographed and measured. Caddis were exposed to 0.00, 0.025, 0.05 and 0.1 mg/L un-ionized ammonia for 48 and 96 hours within experimental stream chambers. Data indicate that exposing caddis to un-ionized ammonia caused …
