Labor Inputs For Livestock Enterprises, Sigurd Strangeland

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

For all kinds of farm planning input and output data relating to costs, yields and labor requirements are needed. Although labor is a major factor in the cost of producing livestock and livestock products little information is available on this input for South Dakota. Some estimates are available, but these estimates are average labor requirements which are based upon farm records obtained in the Corn Belt. These data may be questioned with respect to representativeness for this state. Also the use of average requirements for all sizes of herds and degrees of mechanization leaves much to be desired for useful …

Variety Every Day With Frozen Foods, Mildred Daniel

SDSU Extension Circulars

The freezing method of preserving food for. future use has been used for many years. Modem frozen foods, if proper methods of handling, packaging and freezing have been used, will be of high nutritive value and show very little change in flavor, color, and texture from that of fresh food. Freezing has advantages over other methods of preservation because foods that are frozen quickly and stored at zero will be more like fresh foods than will foods that have been either canned or dried. Canning has been a very satisfactory method of preserving food, and because of this, freezing should …

Garden Insects And Their Control, John A. Lofgren

SDSU Extension Circulars

Every garden .is open to attack by insect pests at some time during the growing season. These attacks may cause severe damage if they go unnoticed and unchecked. It is important to learn to recognize these insects so that the proper control measures may be applied at the right time. Adequate fertility, clean culture, weed control, daily watchfulness and prompt treatment for insects and plant diseases, will do much to increase garden production.

Estimated Feed Requirements For Livestock And Poultry, Sigurd Strangeland

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

Rapid changes in farm practices, largely caused by labor shortages and favorable price-cost relationships, have characterized South Dakota agriculture during the last decade. These changes have raised the questions as to how well they pay. The farmer is always faced with the problem of determining the profitableness of changes in farm practices. Currently, the dollar value of irrigation, soil conservation practices, and various livestock systems of farming are important problems. How much if any of these practices will pay on a particular farm? The answer to this question depends upon the cost of the practice as compared with the benefit …

Inflation And Deflation, Lyle M. Bender

SDSU Extension Circulars

Inflation and deflation are words of many different meanings. They refer to the changes in general price levels. Inflation refers generally to a situation where most prices are rising. On the other hand, deflation refers to a situation in which most prices are falling. In between these two extremes is an "ideal" situation called "stability." In our form of economy fluctuations in general price levels are normal. Inflation may be more carefully defined as a situation where the number of dollars spent increases faster than the goods and services produced. In this case, prices will rise. The opposite situation, deflation, …

Input And Output Relationships In Livestock Production, Sigurd Strangeland

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

What are the profitable patterns of crops and livestock for areas in Central South Dakota? This is a question that farmers in South Dakota are especially concerned with at the present time. The farmer is always faced with the problem of planning the most profitable farm organization and operation, but the problem at the present time is emphasized by the current action programs in irrigation and soil conservation which stress the need for more legumes and livestock in the farm organization. If the economist is to aid the farmer and the action programs, an insight to the question posed above …

Agricultural Productive Capacity Of South Dakota, Lyle M. Bender

SDSU Extension Circulars

The importance of proper land use and agriculture's capacity to produce is very real today. A continuous, adequate supply of food is essential to peace-time prosperity and is highly important in our present defense plans. Since South Dakota is a food producing state, it's citizens have a responsibility to the nation, as well as to their children and grandchildren, to use our land resources wisely. If such are our responsibilities does it not require farmers and others to look to the adequacy of our food production?

South Dakota Crop Varieties Recommendations And Descriptions, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

Growing adapted varieties insures more stable production and creates newer wealth: Using unadapted varieties often invites disaster and causes wide fluctuation in feed and grain supplies. It is recognized that there are two important and profitable markets for grain in the state, namely, (1) market through livestock feeding and (2) industrial uses. Therefore, it will be of great advantage to the producer if he will carefully choose superior varieties that fit his area and his market.

Summary Of Information Given At Fortified Farming, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

United States farmers have done heroic jobs of producing food during the past 10 years. Now our country needs even greater farm production in 1952. And for future years increasing food demands are likely. Farmers will need to produce more. At the same time we must "fortify our farming" by maintaining and building up our soil.
