Seasonal And Regional Differences In The Composition Of Cows' Milk In South Dakota, Yee Jeng-Jung, Kenneth Spurgeon

Agricultural Experiment Station Technical Bulletins (1939-2011)

Payment for milk on the basis of fat content has been the common practice for many decades. Very logically the fat and/or SNF content will affect the yield of manufactured dairy products made from a given supply of milk. The Dairy Science Department at South Dakota State University has received reports of lower than average product yields in some dairy plants in the state. Such low product yields have occurred most often during summer months. An investigation was conducted to determine in detail the characteristic composition of milk from various parts of South Dakota during the four seasons of the …

Effect Of Grazing Intensity And Range Condition On Hydrology Of Western South Dakota Ranges, C. L. Hanson, A. R. Kuhlman, J. K. Lewis

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Range livestock production is a primary industry in the Northern Great Plains. Efficiency of operation is important in this industry because of current low livestock prices, couples with the high cost of necessary inputs. Proper stocking rate is the most important single factor affecting sustained net returns from South Dakota rangeland. Stocking rates which are too light result in lowered income. In contrast, heavy grazing results in a damages resource and poorer range condition. Summarized here are 10 years of a continuing study, initiated in 1963 on experimental pastures of the Range and Livestock Experiment Station, Cottonwood, South Dakota. This …

Heat Detection, Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University

SDSU Extension Fact Sheets

Standing heat (estrus) is the time when the cow stands to be mounted by other cows or a bull. The heat (estrous) cycle (number of days from one standing heat to the next) of the cow averages 21 days. Heat cycle length is usually consistent for an individual animal, but can vary from 17 to 24 days. The average cow will be in standing heat for about 14 hours. Some animals may stand for only 4 hours; others as long as 24 hours.
