Rabbit Fumigation, C D. Gooding
Rabbit Fumigation, C D. Gooding
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Not all poisons act by absorption from the alimentary tract or through the skin, the fumigants are a big group of poisons used in pest control which act on the animal after being absorbed through the lungs.
FUMIGATION as it is now used in Western Australia is not always an economical way of treating whole farm properties. It should only be used on its own in areas where it is impossible to use other more permanent methods such as warren destruction.

Grazing To Control Pasture Composition, R A. Bettenay
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
APART from grazing management, there are a number of means by which the farmer can influence pasture composition.
With the exception of grazing, all of these processes involve recurring costs, so it is important to exert the utmost possible control through the grazing animal.

EVERY bee hive must be a productive unit, headed by a young vigorous queen, to to make sure of the greatest possible return from capital invested in the commercial apiary.
The Romney Marsh, J A. Mallett
The Romney Marsh, J A. Mallett
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE Romney Marsh, sometimes known as the Kent, is the most popular of the British longwoel sheep breeds used in Western Australia.
Rams of this breed are widely used for mating with Merino ewes, the crossbred female progeny of the matings being in demand for subsequent mating with Downs-type rams to produce export Iambs.
