Soybean Meal Or Urea During Feedlot Adaptation And Growing Of Calves, R. N. Gates, L. B. Embry

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1975

This experiment investigated the response by calves to different levels of protein during the first four weeks of feedlot adaptation using soybean meal, urea or a combination of the two sources. Following the adaptation period, the calves were continued on experiment for a growing phase to compare soybean meal and urea as supplements to corn silage.

Acid-Treated Vs. Dried Corn With And Without Zeranol Implants For Finishing Cattle, L. B. Embry, R. C. Ward

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1975

Corn grain is frequently harvested at a moisture content too high for safe keeping under conventional grain storage conditions. While this may be a desirable or necessary practice, the grain must be dried, stored under oxygen-limiting conditions, stored to produce ensiled grain or treated with an effective preservative to prevent spoilage during storage. Each of these methods is being used for preservation and storage of corn when harvested at a high-moisture content (20 to 30%) and used for feeding livestock. Total costs including storage structures, losses in processing and storage and comparative feeding value are factors involved in choice of …

Diethylstilbestrol, Zeranol Or Synovex-S Implants For Finishing Steers, L. B. Embry, W. S. Swan

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1975

Direct comparisons between DES, zeranol and Synovex implants and a non-implanted control under various conditions and are more limited. In the experiment reported here, implants of the three products were compared to a nonimplanted control when steers were fed finishing rations with and without roughage.

How Energy Level In Ration, Market Weight And Type Of Cattle Influence Beef Carcass Traits, W. J. Costello, L. B. Embry, W. S. Swan

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1975

An experiment reported in this publication under the title "Energy Level in Ration, Market Weight and Types of Cattle" provided material to observe the influence of the three factors listed on beef carcass characteristics.

Factors Affecting The Cattle Industry Outlook Situation, Gene E. Murra

South Dakota Cattle Feeders Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1975

Historically, many of the demand and supply relationships which impact on the cattle industry in the United States and South Dakota have been rather easy to analyze. This is not true today--many of the old, simple relationships have become complex. The purpose of this paper will be to present some of the demand and supply relationships as they pertain to outlook.

Consumer Education: Who Needs It?, Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University

SDSU Extension Fact Sheets

Times have changed. So have prices. Before inflation and the shrinking dollar really hit South Dakota, many of us were less concerned with consumer education. Now we are more concerned. The times have hit us where it hurts the most--in the pocketbook. We 're just beginning to realize the importance of being a smart shopper. And, an educated consumer.

False Wireworms Of Economic Importance In South Dakota (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), C. O. Calkins, V. M. Kirk

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

False wireworms were important pests of wheat during the early part of this century, and the cropping practices of that time were synchronized with the life cycle of several species. However, a wide-spread change in cropping practices occurred during the 1920s and 1930s. Farmers began to alternate wheat with other crops, and they began a practice called summer fallowing.
These practices were detrimental to false wireworms because they broke the crop continuity necessary for the completion of the life cycles. The economic importance of false wireworms seemed to decline quite sharply, and the mention of economic infestations no longer appeared …

Reducing Blackbird Damage, Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University

SDSU Extension Fact Sheets

Blackbirds (which include redwing, yellow headed, and Brewers blackbirds, grackles, and cowbirds) gather in black clouds each summer, preparing for migration long before fall actually arrives. These congregating birds seem hungrier than usual; they need to satisfy their daily energy needs and also stock up for their journey southward.

Preventing Electric Shocks By Proper Grounding, Cooperative Extension South Dakota State University

Factors Affecting Poultry Meat Yields, C. W. Carlson, W. W. Marion, B. F. Miller, T. L. Goodwin

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

It has been 10 years since the previous publication bearing this title was issued. A quote from that publication, “…research reported 10 or more years ago is of questionable value because of the rapid progress made by the poultry industry…”, indicates that an updated review is now necessary. Information in that publication is not repeated here. The earlier report is still of much value, especially as it pertains to methodology and guidelines for comparing yield data.
Although many of the same frustrations persist, in that "all conditions of the research reported are not spelled out in the original articles and …
