Nf94-128 Observations From Anthrax Outbreak In Sheridan County Herd, John Gamby, Roger Sahara, Dale Grotelueschen
Nf94-128 Observations From Anthrax Outbreak In Sheridan County Herd, John Gamby, Roger Sahara, Dale Grotelueschen
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Anthrax killed 23 head of cows and calves on a Sheridan county Nebraska ranch in June 1994. Bacillus anthracis was confirmed on culture by the Panhandle Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, Scottsbluff, Nebraska and the National Veterinary Services Laboratory, Ames, Iowa. The following observations from this case are offered to veterinary practitioners encountering herds where anthrax is a part of the differential diagnosis. Please consult textbooks for specifics regarding this disease.
G94-1202 Vaccination Guide For The Small Poultry Flock, Eva Wallner-Pendleton
G94-1202 Vaccination Guide For The Small Poultry Flock, Eva Wallner-Pendleton
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide will help the small flock owner decide whether vaccinations might help prevent disease in the flock. Types of vaccines and methods of application are also discussed.

Nf94-204 Computing The Dollar Value Of Concentrates And Byproduct Feeds For Dairy Cattle, Rick Grant
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Feed costs represent 50 to 60 percent of variable milk production costs. Consequently, feed costs play a major role in determining the profitability of a dairy enterprise. Specifically, a producer should focus on "income above feed costs" to assess total feeding system profitability.

G94-1208 Managing The Alfalfa Weevil, Stephen D. Danielson, Thomas E. Hunt, Keith J. Jarvi
G94-1208 Managing The Alfalfa Weevil, Stephen D. Danielson, Thomas E. Hunt, Keith J. Jarvi
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The identification and life cycle of the alfalfa weevil are discussed along with scouting techniques, economic thresholds, and other integrated pest management tactics.
The alfalfa weevil is the primary insect pest of alfalfa in Nebraska. Management is essential to reduce crop losses, particularly during years when weevil infestation is high. Because there also are years when weevil damage is economically unimportant, it is necessary for growers to become familiar with sampling procedures, management guidelines, and control recommendations so control techniques are not used unnecessarily.

G94-1220 Controlling Ticks, John B. Campbell, Gustave D. Thomas
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Identification and control of ticks common to Nebraska.
Ticks are members of the same phylum (Arthropoda) of the animal kingdom as insects, but are in a different class (Arachnida). The main difference is the body of a tick is composed of only two sections while insect bodies have three sections.
There are over 800 species of ticks, 100 of which are important to man and animals because of economic losses or disease transmission. Fortunately in the United States, only about 12 species are economically important because they transmit disease organisms (viral, bacterial, protozoan, and rickettsial) or cause economic losses to …

Ec94-738 Using Agricultural Anhydrous Ammonia Safely, Robert D. Grisso, David Morgan, Rollin D. Schnieder
Ec94-738 Using Agricultural Anhydrous Ammonia Safely, Robert D. Grisso, David Morgan, Rollin D. Schnieder
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Anhydrous ammonia is one of the most efficient and widely used sources of nitrogen for row-crop production. Because it is a cheap source of nitrogen and readily available, large quantities of anhydrous ammonia are used as nitrogen fertilizer.
Anhydrous ammonia has disadvantages, especially in handling. It must be stored and handled under high pressure, which requires specially designed and well-maintained equipment. In addition, to ensure operator safety, workers must be trained to handle this product and to follow strict work procedures.
