Improving Swine Production, Animal Husbandry Department Nov 1963

Improving Swine Production, Animal Husbandry Department

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

Swine Evaluation Stations have been erected in most of the leading swine producing states of the nation, and like the one in South Dakota, the stations help point the way to improved swine production. Through the efforts of the South Dakota Swine Improvement Association working in cooperation with Animal Science Department, the test station in South Dakota was established in the spring of 1958. A committee consisting of one member from each of the eight organized breed associations makes up a swine evaluation station committee. This committee has developed the rules and regulations used in the operation of the station. …


Proper Location Of Feeder And Waterer--Outside Versues Inside Comparisions, R.W. Seerley Nov 1963

Proper Location Of Feeder And Waterer--Outside Versues Inside Comparisions, R.W. Seerley

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

In order to properly evaluate the best location of feeders and waterers in growing-finishing lots, the experiment should be conducted for several seasons and years. This experiment was initiated in 1961 and the results of a winter and summer trial were reported last year (A.S. Mimeo Series 63-3). The two trials reported herein are the third and fourth trials of the experiment. The results of these trials should be considered as a progress report. No conclusions will be made until more results from several seasons are available.


Performance In An Experimental Spf Herd, J.W. Mccarty, Albert Dittman Nov 1963

Performance In An Experimental Spf Herd, J.W. Mccarty, Albert Dittman

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

Disease free or SPF swine production has received increasing attention in recent years as an attempt to improve the environment under which pigs are produced. SPF procedures were developed to combat specifically atrophic rhinitis (AR) and virus pig pneumonia (VFF) which have been very costly to swine producers over the last several years. These diseases are transmitted principally by pig-to-pig contact once a herd is infected, or a clean herd is infected by introducing infected animals such as replacements for the breeding herd. A producer can unknowingly infect his herd by introducing apparently healthy, but actually carrier animals. Certified SFF …


Calcium And Phosphorus For Growing-Finishing Specific-Pathogen-Free Pigs, R.W. Seerley, J.W. Mccarty, A.E. Dittman Nov 1963

Calcium And Phosphorus For Growing-Finishing Specific-Pathogen-Free Pigs, R.W. Seerley, J.W. Mccarty, A.E. Dittman

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

Since the introduction of SPF pigs on farms, nutritionists have wondered if the nutrient requirements of the pigs are similar to non-SPF pigs. Theoretically if the animal does not have a physiological stress, such as disease, and a good environment is provided, he should gain faster and thereby need more daily nutrients. However, the healthy, fast gaining pig will normally eat more feed in order to meet his nutrient requirements. Consequently, the nutrient requirements in terms of amount of nutrient per pound of total feed should generally be the same for SPF and non-SPF pigs. The word generally is emphasized …


More Testing Needed, R.W. Seerley Nov 1963

More Testing Needed, R.W. Seerley

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

The purebred swine business, like farming or any other business, must be progressive, sensitive to change, and always looking for new and better ways to grow and prosper. The ideas presented in this article are not especially new, in fact, good swine producers have already put most of these ideas into practice. However, some breeders still use production programs and salesmanship of ten years ago and now have a second rate program. The decision must be made—shall the program remain second rate or can some newer information, particularly that regarding accepted testing programs be put into use.


Swine Housing And Management In Confinement Production Systems, A.H. Jensen Nov 1963

Swine Housing And Management In Confinement Production Systems, A.H. Jensen

South Dakota Swine Field Day Proceedings and Research Reports, 1963-11-11

Confinement production of swine is not necessarily suited to all producers, and, in part, may in certain instances be undesirable. It does, however, offer the advantage of greater production potential per unit of labor expended through maximum use of mechanization and automation. In addition, confinement protects the animals from the environmental extremes which cause wide variations in level of performance. Deterrents to confinement swine production have largely involved disease buildup and the difficulties associated with manure disposal. Since their introduction in the early 1950’s, antibiotics have been a valuable aid in preventing disease buildup, but handling and disposal of the …

Marketing And Other Factors Affecting The Cattle Feeding Enterprise In Eastern South Dakota, Gerald Marousek Oct 1963

Marketing And Other Factors Affecting The Cattle Feeding Enterprise In Eastern South Dakota, Gerald Marousek

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

The marketing aspects of the cattle feeding operation are vitally important to its financial success. Decisions concerning transportation rates, grade specifications, market information, and many others cannot be made or put into effect by individual action. Often financial, legislative, and legal considerations are involved. In order to gain knowledge concerning the marketing aspects of cattle feeding in South Dakota, the cooperation of established feeders was sought. Cooperators supplied information on present and expected future operations, both individual and for the geographic area over which they had knowledge.


Cost Of Producing And Marketing Finished Beef In Relation To Consuming Areas, David A. Myers Oct 1963

Cost Of Producing And Marketing Finished Beef In Relation To Consuming Areas, David A. Myers

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

South Dakota exports a large part of its agricultural production. The commodities exported and the form in which they are exported are determinants of the returns producers receive for the employment of their resources. The objectives of this study were: (1) To determine the principal costs for bringing beef cattle from 400 pound weight to a finished weight of 1150 pounds in South Dakota and in other selected areas. Two main categories of cost are purchase price of the animal and feed costs. (2) To compare the cost of marketing beef produced in South Dakota with beef produced in selected …


Variability Of Feed Grain And Forage Production In South Dakota, Edward Dailey Oct 1963

Variability Of Feed Grain And Forage Production In South Dakota, Edward Dailey

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

The volume of feed grain and roughage production varies from year to year and the variation in South Dakota is sizable. This variation has a bearing on the extent to which cattle feeding is carried out in South Dakota. It helps to explain why different areas or regions have unlike rates of expansion. It is important that this variation be recognized for there are a number of sound farm management practices which can be used to reduce instability and uncertainty. Feeders in some areas must make more provisions to increase stability than others. Stabilization of feed grain and roughage availability …

1962 Annual Report : Extension Service Indian Program In South Dakota, Cooperative Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

Because of great differences in economics and people on each reservation area, it is not possible to set forth in this report the specific objectives of all programs conducted. Several broad objectives were therefore selected for major program emphasis. They are: To strengthen and encourage adult responsibility in community living through leadership training. To encourage through training programs greater utilization of the unemployed and underemployed human resources of the reservation population. To teach better nutrition and food habits and to improve the uses of surplus food commodities distributed to welfare clients. To teach sound ranch management principles to Indian ranch …
