While the Rules have one of the largest sheepoperations in Iowa, the family’s livestock experi-ence began more than 50 years ago in Colorado.

Third-generation herdsman Tyson Rule sharedthe history that culminated at the modern hoop-barn based lambing facility near Hawarden (inSioux County), home to nearly 2,000 ewes he cur-rently manages with the help of few employeesoutside the Rule family.

“I got involved in sheep because my family wasinvolved with sheep,” he simply stated.

The family patriarch Larry Rule realized hecould not support his growing family that includ-ed three children in 1955, working Hereford cattlein a feedlot near Eagle, Colorado.

He moved to Brighton, near Denver, and with apartner started a sheep feedlot to grow 60,000head of lambs at a time.

To process that capacity, the two also owned andoperated a packing plant in Denver, Colorado, inthe 1970s.

Though in the early 1980s the Rules discoveredit was cheaper to ship the lambs to Iowa for pro-cessing.

Within the last three decades the Rule familystarted two more Colorado feedlots and developedpacking facilities in Hawarden to replace theplant in Denver.

At nearly the same time the packing plant wasestablished, the Rules also purchased a vacantfarm implement dealership. The large buildingthat used to house the office and shop was con-verted into a winter lambing barn and is still usedto shelter the annual crop of club lambs more than20 years later.

The family has also invested in show qualitygenetics and captures the benefits of technologieslike artificial insemination and embryo transfer intheir show flock.

“My involvement in the business started when Iwas six,” Tyson said. His job was to help unload,sort, weigh and count sheep at the Hawarden salebarn, part of the packing plant.

Though, he recalled, the family always had ewesand Tyson and his sister, Jennifer, both had lamband sheep projects in 4-H and FFA.

Tyson obtained an animal science degree fromIowa State University in 2002. Experience gainedselling office software, printing equipment, andworkflow services allowed Tyson to learn aboutsales, marketing and procurement; he compared itto going through an “on the job MBA program.”

“I enjoyed learning about my customers’ busi-

nesses. If I could find a way to make their busi-ness run more efficient with our products andservices, then they would look to me for new waysto help impact their business,” Tyson noted.

He returned to the family business after thesojourn in the corporate world, and in 2008 con-struction began on the new 240-acre site, whichnow includes a modern lambing barn with slattedfloors and two hoop barns to house gestating andlactating ewes as well as lambs, each more than600 feet long.

“I was tired of the 9 to 5,” Tyson said. He also recalled that when he was young, he

could go to work with his dad on the farm everyday. His kids seemed to be missing out.

Getting back into the stock business allows himto spend more time with his two daughters, seven-year-old Madison and Mackenzie, soon to be two,Tyson added.

Madison already has a job on the farm. She is incharge of washing, drying and folding the towelsused in the lambing barn.

Wife Amber, Tyson said, is also involved in thefamily business. Tyson commended her patienceand work ethic.

“She is a lot better at teaching (lambs) to eatthan me,” he said.

Tyson’s dad Rob puts in a lot of hours also dur-ing lambing season and helps teach the newemployees the skills needed to successfully takecare of the ewes and baby lambs during lambingtime.

Between December and May this year, the Ruleswill lamb 2,000 ewes in three batches, about aquarter of which are black faced ewes producingclub lambs. This is the first season of full produc-tion at the new site.

An online sale ended in March and the nextRing of Success online ewe lamb sale will be April19 and 20 at www.rulesheep.com. The approxi-mately 60 lambs offered for sale can be viewedonline.

During lambing, the Rules employ up to fivepeople but during the rest of the year the choresare completed by family members and usuallytake about a half a day.

The efficiency of the work is directly related tothe site layout.

Ewes about to lamb are brought to the lambingbarn and put in “drop pens.” Once the lambs areborn they join their mother in individual penswhere they can be monitored for health and tomake sure they are eating. After just two to threedays, the lambs and ewes are moved into grouppens in the lambing barn, and then a week latermoved out to the hoop barn.

Advantages of keeping the sheep under roofinclude avoiding predators common on pasture aswell as being able to closely observe the animalsfor health. It also keeps vulnerable lambs out ofthe mud and cold in the early spring.

Pens are equipped with lamb creep areas wherethey are started on pellets and corn. Lambs areweaned at about 50 days of age. It takes substan-tially less than a year to finish the lambs.

Feeding all 2,000 sheep takes about two hoursper day. Feed is mixed on site from a feed shedequipped with six bays; each can hold a semi-loadof feed. The ration is composed of forage, includingground alfalfa and grass hay, soy hulls, dried dis-tillers grains, corn produced on site, and anothercorn processing byproduct, distiller’s syrup.

“I like processes,” Tyson said. He devised the routines so the workers do chores

in the morning and the afternoons are reservedfor special projects. This keeps the tasks from get-ting repetitive.

The objective is to expand production to 4,000head at the site over the next decade.

To drive by Curtis Dukes’ farm, it doesn’t lookmuch out of the ordinary: a few sheds grace bothsides of the road nearby an old, white farm housesurrounded by cropland and flanked by a modestfeedlot full of home grown calves.

Once you pull in the drive and step out of yourtruck, though, the first hint that the Dukes’ oper-ation is unique comes in the form of a chorus ofbarks and greetings from a fluffy, young bordercollie named Tuff.

Tuff is the most recent addition to Dukes’ farm,located in Adams County near Lenox. He has hadborder collies as herding dogs for 20 years.

The dogs work hard on the farm and are a hobbyfor Dukes as he demonstrates their skills at fieldtrials.

Dukes’ border collies dogs produce puppies thatare used by other stockmen.

“I pick out a pup I think I’m going to like,”Dukes explained when asked how to select a herd-ing dog at such a young age. Those that are outgo-ing when compared to their siblings are good can-didates. It is also helpful to see the parents work,he added.

The potential of a puppy to one day become aherding dog is protected during the first weeks

and months of his life.“Let the pups be pups until they are six to eight

months old,” Dukes said. During this time it is important for the handler

to bond with the puppy and establish good recall:puppies should be able to recognize their nameand come when they are called.

Dukes said he doesn’t put young dogs in withlivestock yet because a bad interaction, such asgetting kicked, could hurt a small dog and “put thedog off work,” in that they would become fearful ofthe stock and not be able to productively interactlater on. Getting kicked by livestock could evenkill a small dog.

By the age of eight to 10 months, dogs can beginto be introduced to stock.

“I never had sheep until I had dogs,” Dukesquipped.

Dukes starts training pups with “dog brokesheep.” Because dogs are the natural predator ofsheep, stock takes time to become accustomed tobeing handled by dogs.

Border collies will also herd cattle.“Most dogs will work one or the other (sheep or

cattle) better than the other,” Dukes noted.

Bringing in the herd

New border collie trainee,Nikki, is shown getting one of herfirst sheep experiences. TrainerCurtis Dukes starts trainingherding dogs in a round pen.When dogs are first introduced tolivestock their herding instinctimmediately kicks in. It’s thisinstinct the trainer hones so thatthe dog will eventually herd thesheep in a productive fashion.

The round pen is useful, Dukessaid, because it makes for “lessdog chasing.”

The first skills a puppy learnsare to circle the sheep in onedirection, stop, and turn thesheep to circle in the oppositedirection.

He then moves the dog andsheep into progressively largerenclosures and pastures.

The experienced dogs on Dukes’farm are even used together; forexample, when moving cattlefrom one pasture to anotheracross open area or roads. Photoby Emma Struve

Working dogs ease farmers’ burdens

Curtis Dukes, 20-year veteran border colliehandler, uses both verbal commands and aseries of whistles to give his herding dogsinstructions in the field.• “Come by.” A low pitch blast followed by a

high pitched one. The dog flanks the live-stock, sheep or cattle, and turns them in aclockwise direction.

• “Away to me.” A high pitch whistle followed by alow pitched blast. The dog flanks the stock andturns them in a counter clockwise direction.

• “There.” One high-pitched blast on the whis-tle. The dog stops whatever it is doing andlays down.

• “Walk up.” Two short, low-pitched blasts onthe whistle. The dog drives the stock, as agroup, away from the handler. This is one ofthe hardest skills to teach a border colliebecause it goes against their instinct to gath-er stock together and toward the handler.

• “That’ll do.” This gently spoken command isone that may be unique to Dukes. He tells hisdogs this after their training session is over.“It takes the load off,” Dukes explained.

As crop producers in Iowa ready equipment tohead to the fields for planting, Iowa StateUniversity Extension field agronomists sharewith Iowa Farm & Ranch some advice on how toprioritize a potential backlog of field work left overfrom a late and wet fall in 2009.

Of unanimous concern is that soil be allowed tosufficiently dry before any field work is attempted.

R. Aaron Saeugling, field agronomist fromCreston, said, “When considering tillage for thisspring, growers need to have patience to let soilsdry…Tillage in wet soils does little to break com-paction zones.

“Also, growers need to delay anhydrous ammo-nia application until dry soils are present to avoidpoor sealing and loss of ammonia,” he added.

Waiting to plant until soils are drier alsoimproves seed to soil contact and helps to “avoidside wall compaction, uneven planting depth andcrusting,” Saeugling noted. He coversPottawattamie, Cass, Adair, Madison, Mills,Montgomery, Adams, Union, Clarke, Fremont,Page, Taylor, Ringgold and Decatur counties insouthwest Iowa.

Joel DeJong, the field agronomist who advisesfarmers in Lyon, Osceola, Sioux, O'Brien,Plymouth, Cherokee, Woodbury and Ida countiesin west central Iowa added, “I think we causedsome compaction last fall, and we didn’t removemuch with frost this winter due to the good insu-

lating blanket the snow provided.”He said that it is tough, to impossible, to remove

compaction from wet soils. In the very moist soilsthis spring producers can do more damage thangood with inappropriate tillage depth.

Field Agronomist Mark Licht advised, “Springtillage practices should be limited to the minimumamount needed to ensure a uniform seedbed.

“Weather necessitated contingencies would be toget the N, P and K fertilizers applied,” he added.Additional priorities include the application ofpre-emergence herbicide.

Licht works in Sac, Calhoun, Monona,Crawford, Carroll, Greene, Harrison, Shelby,Audubon, and Guthrie counties. He commentedthat “fungicidal seed treatments will be of benefitbecause of the high potential for wet soil condi-tions” this spring.

Licht also offered the following link, which canbe used to check four-inch soil temperaturesacross the state:http://extension.agron.iastate.edu/NPKnowledge/soiltemphistory.html.

DeJong noted that this type of seed treatmentwill be especially important in poorly drainedsoils. He cautioned producers to be aware of

potential nitrogen losses due to fields with exces-sive moisture, both last fall and this spring.

Licht stated, “There is the potential that fall-applied nitrogen movement and lack of uniformsoil conditions this spring will result in unevencorn emergence and growth. It will be extremelyimportant to plant in warm, dry soil conditions tominimize the chances of sidewall compaction.”

As far as spring fertilizer application goes,Saeugling cautioned, “Mistakes early in the sea-son have a way of haunting us all seasonlong…Proper anhydrous application is critical tomaintain optimum use of nitrogen by corn later inthe growing season.”

He suggested, “Consider no-till farming opera-tions to avoid the crunch of making tillage passesunder wet conditions to prepare soil for planting.”

Given the changeable Iowa spring weather,DeJong advised producers, “Before the seasonstarts, put together two game plans for the plant-ing season. One, what you will do if the springgives you good windows of opportunity to get thework done. The second is if we get wet and late;what are we going to do with our system to savetime and get it done quicker?”

On Thursday, April 1, the National 4-H Councilkicked off the 4-H Give2Vote Challenge, afundraiser to benefit state 4-H programs usingmobile and online technology.

Reported to be the first national youth develop-ment organization to test mobile giving, theNational 4-H Council aims to rally 4-H’s legion ofmore than 88,000 Facebook “fans” in a friendlygiving competition to support their state.

The month-long campaign is not limited toFacebook however; anyone who wishes to supportthe six million 4-H members across the UnitedStates can text CLOVER to 50555 to donate $10.What makes the Challenge unique is that thestate 4-H program receiving the most donationsby mobile phone or by giving online at 4-H.org willreceive a bonus $5,000. Each donation counts asone vote.

The $5,000 bonus, generously provided by cam-paign sponsor JCPenney, is an added incentive toencourage states to spread the word. Participatingwireless carriers include AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile,Sprint and Nextel. The state donation designationwill be determined by the area code of the mobilesubscriber.

“New mobile technologies have allowed us tobreak exciting new ground and offer an easy way

for people to support the 4-H movement,” saidDonald T. Floyd, Jr., president and CEO of theNational 4-H Council. “Donations received viatext provide an innovative new stream of fundingto 4-H programs, creating even more opportuni-ties for youth.”

4-H has been proven to have a positive impacton youth. According to longitudinal research con-ducted by the Institute for Applied Research inYouth Development at Tufts University, if a childis in 4-H, he or she is:

• Nearly two times more likely to get bettergrades in school

• Nearly two times more likely to plan to go tocollege

• 41 percent less likely to engage in risky behav-iors

• 25 percent more likely to positively contributeto their families and communities

In addition, The 4-H Study of Positive YouthDevelopment found that when compared to otheryouth, young people involved in 4-H perform bet-ter in science, engineering and technology sub-jects and are more likely to pursue sciencecareers.

The Challenge’s mobile fundraising capability ispowered by Mobile Accord/mGive. “mGive is very

excited to partner with an organization that playssuch an important role in developing America’syouth. We look forward to helping 4-H expandtheir donor base through the mobile giving chan-nel,” said mGive Co-Founder and CEO TonyAiello.

With an estimated 285.6 million US Wirelesssubscribers and 152.7 billion text messages sentper month, according to CTIA-The WirelessAssociation, 4-H is ready to take advantage of this21st Century technology to advance the 108 yearold organization’s positive youth developmentmessage and mission among this growing audi-ence.

A one-time donation of $10 will be added to yourmobile phone bill or deducted from your prepaidbalance. You will also receive up to one messageper day from National 4-H Council Alerts.Message and data rates may apply. All charges arebilled by and payable to your mobile serviceprovider.

For some, college graduation means the endof being on campus amidst faculty, staff and fel-low students. For Jay Lampe, college gradua-tion led to a private industry job that led himback to Iowa State University (ISU) as anemployee, and he couldn’t be happier.

On January 25, he began work as swine farmsmanager overseeing the ISU swine teaching,nutrition and research farms.

“The opportunity to get back to work with stu-dents was the key reason I was interested inthis job,” Lampe said. “My focus is to have goodstudents involved in these farms, just as I was.”

Lampe earned his B.S. and M.S. degrees inanimal science at ISU, and worked on most ofthe ISU animal science department’s farms. Hewas a lab instructor as a grad student and hesaid he enjoys being around people who areenthusiastic about learning.

In his professional career at Swine Graphics,he had both research and production responsi-bilities. His research work included collabora-tive efforts with ISU College of VeterinaryMedicine and the USDA-ARS office on campus.As production manager, he oversaw half of thecompany's wean-to-finish pig system and at anyone time was responsible for 130,000 head ofpigs.

“During the past two years, I worked in thegrow-finish side of the business, which will helpme in streamlining the ISU farms to potential-

ly create less waste,” he said. “Also during thattime of financial downturn, the commercialindustry learned to become creative in order tostay in business. I expect that experience tohelp me deal with budget cuts and decreasedfunding that the university is facing.”

His student work experience has given him areal leg up as swine farms manager, especiallyconsidering his new position replaces threeindividual swine farm management positions.

“It’s been a huge benefit to me to be familiarwith the farms. Otherwise I’d be totally lost try-ing to keep up with the farms themselves andthe researchers and their work,” Lampe said.“Following in the footsteps of those who werehere for such a long time is definitely inspiringand reassuring at the same time. In times ofdoubt, it helps me remember that it’s worthstruggling through the tough times in order tosee the good times.”

Although he has definite goals (the farms willbe financially more sound and production willbe representative of commercial industry),Lampe said he remains firmly committed tostrong traditions such as showing truckloads atthe National Barrow Show. And, he said, heexpects to continue having the farms open tovisitors from within and outside of the universi-ty, such as livestock judging teams, elementaryschools and international visitors.

Animal science alumnus returns to ISU as swine farms manager Discover ways to serve

healthy and fresh food to students

Two-thirds of school children eat a NationalSchool Lunch Program lunch and consume aboutone-third of their total calories from this meal; andthat food travels between 2,500 and 4,000 milesbefore reaching their plates.

Moreover, over one-quarter of Iowa children age10-17 are either overweight or obese, according toa 2007 study compiled by the National Survey ofChildren's Health.

"These stats make clear the need for and imme-diate value of Farm to School programs. Farm toSchool not only provides healthy food choices forour children but also create economic opportuni-ties for local farmers. Gardens make great outdoorclassrooms and farmers enjoy the opportunity towelcome students to their farms," said AdelePhillips of the Center for Rural Affairs.

According to Phillips, excellent resources areincreasingly available for food service directors toconnect with local farmers and learn new ways toserve fresh and healthy food to students. One suchresource, an educational workshop sponsored inpart by the Center for Rural Affairs, will show howfood service directors can serve healthy, fresh foodto students through a farm-to-school food program.The workshop is designed for food-service direc-tors, farmers, community members and interestedindividuals, and will be from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.,Thursday, April 15, at the University of NorthernIowa's Malcolm Price Lab School.

For the last coupleweeks, I’ve been awak-ened by the sound ofcardinals “fighting”with my bedroom win-dow. The birds sit onthe branches of thetrees right outside thewindow, see theirreflections and pickfights.

While I realize theyare territorial birds anddon’t have control overtheir behavior, I alsowant that extra halfhour of sleep I could getwithout the tapping.

I researched thebehavior on a birdwatching site on theinternet to make sure Ididn’t have “crazy”birds. (I didn’t. It’s anatural behavior.)

I came across the site,w i l d - b i r d -watching.com, whichsuggests decreasing thereflectivity of the win-dows or putting a phys-ical barrier on the out-side of the windows. Or,you can just wait untilthe end of nesting sea-son when the behaviordecreases.

I may be crazy bythen.

I do enjoy the brightred cardinals flyingaround the farm,though, so I guess I’lltolerate it for awhilelonger.

I keep telling peoplethat I have tons ofworthless knowledgeand information in my

head. I found anotherlittle piece of informa-tion while researchingcardinals crashing intowindows.

A website calledflap.com listed the topkillers of birds eachyear.

Glass windows kill anestimated 100 to 900million birds each year.Someone actually did astudy over a 20-yearperiod to support thisstatistic. I wonder howthe data was collected,and if he stood at thebottom of tall skyscrap-ers waiting for birds todrop so he could countthem.

The U.S. Fish andWildife Service esti-mates that up to 175million birds die fromcolliding with electricaltransmission lines.

An “unknown” num-ber of birds die eachyear from inadvertentlydrowning in livestockwater tanks. I didn’tknow my herd of cattlewere murderers, butstranger things havehappened.

A couple weeks ago, Iwas flipping through thechannels and cameacross a new HBO moviecalled “Temple Grandin”that caught my interest.It was billed as drama-tized documentary ofthe life of a womannamed Temple Grandin,played by the lovelyClaire Danes.

Usually I like to watchaction movies, with myrating system akin tothe amount of explosivesthe producers had to useduring the filming of themovie.

But, the teaser linecaught my eye: A womenbecomes a advocate forautism and humane cat-tle handling. I wonderedhow these two thingscould come together. Acouple hours later Iknew.

I wanted my husbandto watch the movie too.The next night, I said Ifound a movie about thehandling of cattle that Ithought he would like.

For the first half hour,while we watchedTemple growing up andadapting to her autismin the school system, Ikept getting the “whatwere you thinking whenyou said I would likethis movie” look. OnceTemple started workingwith cattle, he becamemore interested.

Temple Grandin wentto college about thesame time as my dad,beginning in 1966, sothe movie was a greatresource for me to seehow animals used to behandled, and seeing howthat is different today.

Now we know thatcattle that are stresseddo not produce as goodbeef as cattle who arecalm when they areslaughtered.

I wish the PETA peo-ple could watch thismovie and understandthat, for the most part,farmers take care oftheir animals and careabout how they arebeing raised.

One of the thingsTemple said in themovie while she isexplaining her designfor a more humaneslaughter facility was,“We owe them somerespect. I touched thefirst cow that was beingstunned. In a few sec-onds it was going to be

just another piece ofbeef, but in that momentit was still an individ-ual. It was calm andthen it was gone. Ibecame aware of howprecious life was.”

Indeed. Despite her autism,

which was virtuallyunknown 60 years ago(they defined it as aform of schizophreniaearly in the movie),Temple Grandin nowholds three degrees,including a Ph.D inAnimal Science. She is aprofessor, author, andpublic speaker.

When Temple startedher journey of listeningto the mooing sounds ofcattle and watchingtheir behavior, she waslaughed at by the “oldboys’ club” who wouldn’tlisten to her.

Now, almost half ofthe cattle in NorthAmerica are handled ina center track restrainersystem that shedesigned for meatplants.

By looking at theworld from the animal’spoint of view, she helpedchange the cattle indus-try.

A case could be madethat she helped improvethe quality of the beefwe eat today.

Now, if I could just getinto the minds of thosecardinals.

The Bary and Karen Kienast family, whichfarms near Manning in Carroll County, were thewinners of the March “Gary Wergin Good FarmNeighbor Award.”

The award was presented to the Kienast byIowa Deputy Secretary of Agriculture KareyClaghorn at the Hausbarn/Heritage Park inManning on Monday, March 29.

“The Kienast family has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to caring for the land,their animals, and also their neighbors,” saidIowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey. “Likeother farmers throughout the state they exem-plify the care for the land and concern for theirneighbors that this award was designed to recog-nize. It’s second nature for them to give back totheir neighbors and community.”

Bary and Karen Kienast own and operate acustom beef and row crop farm south ofManning. They have two children and have alsohad a number of foster children.

The Kienast family was nominated by KevinBoyle from Templeton Savings Bank. In his nom-ination he said, “The Kienasts have a reputationfor going far beyond the norm of a regular neigh-bor. Bary and Karen are very well known in the

community for their volunteerism and are someof the first people called upon when someoneneeds a favor.”

Besides their work on the farm, the Kienastsare also active in the community. Bary is a mem-ber of Carroll County Extension and both areactive with the Manning Heritage Foundation.

The Wergin Good Farm Neighbor award, madepossible through the financial support of TheCoalition to Support Iowa’s Farmers, recognizesIowa livestock farmers who care for their farms,neighbors, and the environment. It is named inmemory of Gary Wergin, a long-time WHO Radiofarm broadcaster who helped create the award.

WHO Radio’s Big Show broadcast live from theHausbarn/Heritage Park in Manning onMonday, March 29.

Anyone interested in nominating their neigh-bor for the award should write a letter or e-mailexplaining why their neighbor should receivethis designation. Applications may be submittedto the Iowa Department of Agriculture and LandStewardship, Attn: Wergin Good Farm NeighborAward, Henry A. Wallace Building, Des Moines,IA 50319 or emailed to [email protected].

Manning’s Kienast family named Wergin Good Farm Neighbor nect with local farmers and hear firsthand stories

about how some Iowa schools are switching tohealthy, local foods," said Andrea Geary coordina-tor of the Northern Iowa Food & Farm Partnership(NIFFP) housed at the University of NorthernIowa's Center for Energy & EnvironmentalEducation (CEEE). "The transition to sourcingcafeteria foods locally won't happen overnight, butit does need to happen. We at CEEE are more thanhappy to lend our expertise to this effort."

According to Geary, Bertrand Weber, director ofwellness, nutrition and culinary standards forTaher, Inc., a food-services management companyin Minnesota, will give the keynote address. Taher,Inc. provides K-12 school lunch management andother food services to clients in 10 states. Weberformerly managed numerous hotels and resortsand has worked with many school districts tomake their school lunch programs healthier.

"At this meeting, Iowa farmers and food servicedirectors have a great opportunity to observe andlearn from success stories out of Minnesota andfrom around Iowa. And they can bring back ideason how to engender a passion in their students forhealthy eating and an even greater understandingof the importance of food and farming in Iowa,"said Phillips.

The event is open to the public. The cost to par-ticipate is $30. The registration fee covers lunchand material costs.

With the arrival of spring, livestock producersbegin to think of pastures and alfalfa fields, andhow these valuable sources of forage survived thewinter.

So far, Dr. Stephen K. Barnhart, professor ofagronomy at Iowa State University, has not heardof any winter damage to alfalfa fields and pasturesas of an April 2 interview with the Iowa Farm &Ranch. He added that it is too early to know ifthere has been any widespread damage.

But he sounded optimistic about pastures andalfalfa fields surviving the winter well. Theground had a good cover of snow, and other thansome extremely cold days, the winter was mild.Also, not much mid-winter thawing occurred tothreaten the condition of pastures and alfalfafields.

Barnhart is responsible for the ISU Extensionprogram in forage production and managementand also tracks hay prices.

Land for pastures and alfalfa got a good, quickstart this spring with warm temperatures.Barnhart said if temperatures stay average orabove average, it will benefit pastures and alfalfafields.

At the same time, cattle producers want to gettheir livestock out of muddy lots and onto pasturesas quickly as possible.

“It’s a little too early for much grass or grazingvalue out there,” Barnhart said, “so producers willhave to supplement feed to their cattle.”

He explained that producers usually have tomake compromises when deciding when to movelivestock to pasture in the spring. Sending cattleout onto pasture land causes concerns of com-paction and hoof damage if soil conditions are stillwet.

Spring 2010 forage outlook: Still early todetermine winter damage

More than half of Iowa’s farmland is owned bypeople who do not farm it, and the further theylive from the land, the less involved they are inits management, according to data from the 2009Iowa Farm and Rural Life Poll.

This has implications regarding who makesdecisions about Iowa land, farm operators’ abili-ty to earn a living through farming and whetherthe land is well cared for or exploited.

“Farmland owners ultimately are responsiblefor decisions about who farms their land and howit’s farmed,” said Iowa State UniversityExtension Sociologist J. Gordon Arbuckle Jr.,who co-directs the annual survey with ISUExtension Sociologist Paul Lasley. “Their deci-sions regarding who has access to that land andhow it is farmed can influence the social, econom-ic and environmental outcomes of family farm-ing.”

Very little research has examined issues relat-ed to rented farmland, Arbuckle noted; thisreport begins to address that gap.

A complete analysis of the Iowa Farm andRural Life Poll data related to rented land inIowa has been published in a new ISU Extensionpublication, “Rented Land in Iowa: Social andEnvironmental Dimensions,” PMR 1006. It’savailable from the ISU Extension Online Store(www.extension.iastate.edu/store/) andExtension Sociology (www.soc.iastate.edu/exten-sion/farmpoll.html).

Access to land, whether through ownership orleasing arrangements, is critical to success infarming, Arbuckle said.

“This is an important way that agriculture dif-fers from other sectors. For example, manufac-turers can get the raw materials they need forproduction from around the world, and they canoften substitute materials for one another intimes of relative scarcity,” he stated.

But in agriculture, there’s only so much farm-land available in a given area, Arbuckle said. “Iffarmers don’t have access to sufficient land with-in a certain distance of their homes, they can’tfarm. Having secure access to enough acreage tomake a living, or at least contribute to householdincome, is key to success in farming.”

Arbuckle’s research shows that on the whole,Iowa’s farmers feel that their relationships with

their landlords are secure. Farmers have beenleasing from the same landlords for 18 years onaverage, and 78 percent believe that their land-lords are committed to their continuation as ten-ants. Tenants communicate with their landlordsabout farming about eight times a year.

Relationships appear to deteriorate with dis-tance, however. The ISU Extension survey foundthat nearly half of Iowa non-operator landownerslive outside of the county where their land islocated, and 21 percent live out of state. Landlordcommunication about farming and conservation,commitment to relationships with tenants andperceived land stewardship ethics all decline thefurther away a landlord lives.

“Most Iowa farm landlords are former farmersor spouses of former farmers, and they tend tolive in the county where there farmland is locat-ed,” Arbuckle staed. Heirs of farm estates, on theother hand, tend to live out of state. As more for-mer farmers pass their farms on to heirs, theaverage distance between landlords and theirland is likely to increase, and any relatedimpacts will likely intensify too.”

Land ownership also can play a role in deter-mining the environmental impact of farming,Arbuckle continued. The sociologist saidresearch has consistently shown that implemen-tation of conservation practices - especially thosethat require major changes to the land and havelonger-term benefit horizons such as terracesand riparian buffers - is positively related toownership.

“Because such a high proportion of Iowa farm-land is rented, we need to think about strategiesto reach out to non-operator landowners and helpthem to ensure that their land has adequate con-servation measures in place,” Arbuckle said.

About the Iowa Farm and Rural Life PollMore than 1,200 farmers participated in the

2009 Iowa Farm and Rural Life Poll. On average,they were 64 years old and had been farming for39 years. Copies of the rented land report, as wellas the 2009 summary report, PM 2093, andreports from previous years are available fromthe ISU Extension Online Store (www.exten-sion.iastate.edu/store/) and Extension Sociology(www.soc.iastate.edu/extension/farmpoll.html).

More distant landowners less involved, research shows

“We need to also consider what the pasture for-ages need,” he stated. “The grass is just nowrecovering from winter dormancy, and its springregrowth is initially coming from the sugars itstored up over the winter. Grazing early andremoving needed early leaf area causes con-cerns.”

Producers have historically applied nitrogenfertilizer to their pastures and grass hay fieldsearly in the spring, Barnhart continued.

“With our commonly used cool-season forages,we typically have an early spring forage surplus.Spreading nitrogen on pastures early in thespring may not be economically efficient, becauseit just grows more excess,” said Barnhart.

“Delaying nitrogen application until early Mayto the latter part of May may help spread outsome of the spring growth, and make it more uni-formly available,” he continued.

From a farm management standpoint,Barnhart explained delaying pasture fertiliza-tion until later in May often conflicts with row-crop activity.

In Iowa, the ideal growing season for hay andpasture would be a mild winter, no winter injury,

no late freezes, timely rains, no drought, not toohot and a good long fall lasting until mid to lateOctober, before a good hard freeze, he stated.

Farmers used more stored hay this year thanin the past as livestock couldn’t graze on cornstalks as long as normal, said Barnhart. Somehay growers sold out earlier than normal thiswinter.

“I’ve talked to some producers who had to buyhay,” he stated. “Each farm is going to be differ-ent as far as surpluses and carry-over.”

As with last year, there will be pressure fromwestern states to sell more hay in Californiabecause more irrigation water is being pulledfrom hay producers there, Barnhart commented.That pressure may have an effect on Midweststates.

“Last year the long-term cash hay growersmoved a lot of hay early,” said Barnhart. “I don’tknow if that was in anticipation of the demandfrom California.

With similar national market conditions, andlower local on-farm hay inventories, it may bepointing to a tighter hay supply this season.”

SPRING 2010 FORAGE OUTLOOK:Contined from page 9

From April 5, 2010 “Crop Connections” by Mark Licht, Extension Field Agronomist, Carroll

It’s almost time to check alfalfa stands for winterinjury. It’s possible to check now for winter kill,but keep in mind that plants that are experiencingwinter injury are slow to green up in the spring.

The best time to check for winter kill or injury iswhen growth is four inches. Keep in mind thatstand reductions should be expected each year.Winter temperatures, snow cover and ice sheetscan impact stand reductions, but other factorssuch as stand age, fertility, pH, harvesting fre-quency and grazing can cause stand to be moresusceptible to winter damage.

Here’s how to assess:• For young stands; count the number of plants

per square foot. Greater than 12 plants for the firstproduction year and greater than eight plants forthe second production year is a good stand.

• For older stands, count the number of stemsper square foot. More than 54 stems will not limityields; if there are fewer than 40 stems, replantingshould be considered.

Don’t stop at counting plants or stems. Dig tap-roots and evaluate the health. Firm, white tissueis excellent and soft, brown tissue is dead. Yellowtissues indicates a dying root.

Here are two great resources with more detail:“Evaluating Hay and Pasture Stands for WinterInjury” from ICM News and “Alfalfa StandAssessment: Is This Stand Good Enough to Keep?”from the University of Wisconsin.

Landowners needing to conduct prescribedburns to meet mid-contract management require-ments of Conservation Reserve Program (CRP)contracts may utilize a variety of sources for writ-ing prescribed burn plans.

“Prescribed burn plans may be written by thelandowner, volunteer fire departments, TechnicalService Providers, local County ConservationBoards, non-government organizations, stateagency personnel or other knowledgeable person,”said NRCS State Conservationist Rich Sims of theUSDA Natural Resources Conservation Service(NRCS) in Iowa. “In Iowa, no formal certifiedtraining is required to write burn plans.”

Although NRCS employees cannot write burnplans, the agency has provided a Prescribed Burnjob sheet for landowners to use as a planning tool.Copies are available at ftp://ftp-fc.sc.egov.usda.gov/IA/technical/PrescribedBurning2009.pdf.

John Myers, NRCS state resource conservation-

ist, highlights some key considerations when con-ducting prescribed burns:

• Always notify your local fire departmentbefore the burn.

• Landowners are liable for damages caused bythe burn.

• Monitor wind conditions to reduce chances offire spreading from planned burn area.

• Be aware of how smoke may affect visibility onnearby roads and conditions at nearby facilitieslike hospitals.

Landowners may not conduct burns betweenMay 15 and August 1 which is the primary nest-ing season for birds. This would result in CRP con-tract termination, according to Farm ServiceAgency (FSA) rules.

Financial assistance is not available for writinga prescribed burn plan. But it is available to eligi-ble landowners for the costs associated with con-ducting the burn. Contact your local FSA office formore information.

USDA clarifies prescribed burn plan rules for CRP contract holders


Lean hog trade has remained firm following ourupside push last week due to the friendly QuarterlyMarch Hogs and Pigs. Now spill over support fromcattle, firm cash trade and chart buying have all beenbehind the support. After three days of trade thisweek we have the weekly net changes at $3.05 high-er on the April contract and June is up over $1.22.The cash market has jumped about $10 from the lev-els seen about two weeks ago. This has been especial-ly supportive to the April futures, which have nowrallied over $8. The cattle strength has been moreimpressive to me, which continues to be a supportivefactor for pork, but demand needs to be there to sup-port higher trade and support the higher prices.Demand should be good near term, but as we moveinto the summer we need to watch to see if the hognumbers are indeed smaller as the Hog and Pig num-bers suggested. We have been favoring using the pre-vious high side of the range as an area to secure pro-tection, at least via options. . We now have October up

in the $74-76 area which historically is very good andprofitable level. Hedgers call with questions, therecent drop in corn and meal price along with thehigher hog price has our margins looking very good.We should start to look forward to later 2010 num-bers soon.

WHEAT 4/8/10Wheat trade has bounced from oversold condi-

tions this week and there is some light positivemomentum still in place. The weekly July contractnet changes after three days of trade are 17 high-er in Minneapolis, 20 higher in Chicago and 21higher in Kansas City. There were a few qualityand weather items this week which helped themarket bounce along with an absence of fresh sell-ers. We could argue the sellers were all in the mar-ket already and it’s natural to see a market bounceafter big sell offs. The Chicago May futures did slip$1.40 from the early January high to the low thispast week, and the market was down $1.69, ornearly 30%, from the high printed aroundThanksgiving. The first aggregate USDA weeklywinter wheat condition report showed good toexcellent ratings at 65% versus 43% last year,which was negative. The expectations for coldertemperatures have been one weather item whichhas helped the market bounce, but we are not fear-ful of much damage at this juncture. The weeklyexport sales were reported at 323,700 tons of oldcrop and 209,700 tons of new which combined wereat the high side of expectations. The monthlyUSDA report on Friday is expected to show the2009-10 carryover at 1 billion, the range of esti-mates is 971 million to 1.1 billion. Hedgers callwith questions, continue to look forward at thecarry in the futures, the carry is a good hedge assetat this time.

CATTLE 4/8/10Live cattle trade has maintained the firm tone this

week with cash trade moving to $100 /cwt. The weeklynet changes after three days of trade are $2.80 higher onApril Live Cattle, which did see a new contract high.June futures are up $1.22 and August feeders are up$2.12. Feeder cattle have also jumped to new highs.Cash trade jumped to $100/$162, which was mostly $4to $5 higher than the trade the past few weeks. Thehigher trade was mostly priced-in to the futures. Thefeeder cattle movement continues to reflect good place-ment interest as well as interest in buying calves tobackground. The third and fourth quarter feeder pricemovement, to the $115 level, is a good level to start look-ing at some futures or options for protection on fall/win-

ter calf sales. The cutout values have remained firm butno big jump occurred, so the higher cash trade does hurtpacker margins. Wednesday’s cutout trade had choice at164.62 and select at $163.55; if the cutout can hold thesegains it does support cash trade in the $96-100 area.The chart momentum remains up, so more shorts couldget squeezed out to give us an even further upside move.Hedgers call with questions. Make sure your focusremains on profitability and not ownership of expensivecalves or exiting profitable hedges because it could havebeen or could be better. There is a risk of a brisk setback that will occur before we can talk about any type ofconfirmation of a top.

CORN 4/8/10Corn trade has been mostly flat this week, but we

saw a bounce on Wednesday due to oversold condi-tions; this has the May contract 12 higher on theweek after three days of trade and December is up 11cents. The lower prices last week did find somedemand with ethanol scale down buying and somebigger export business. We do not believe end userswill chase a rally here, but the uncertainty ahead ofthe planting season has kept sellers away amid thebuying. There may be some additional buying near-term, but the expected big USDA ending stocks num-ber on Friday should limit buying. The April MonthlyUSDA World Agriculture Supply and DemandEstimates will be seen Friday morning. The averagetrade guess for the new 2009-10 ending stocks accord-ing to the DTN posted survey is 1.91 billion bushelsversus 1.799 a month ago; the range of trade guessesis 1.72 to 2.15 billion. The USDA Quarterly Stocksreport seen last week would suggest the carryovershould be at 2 billion bushels. The lower livestocknumbers have also been a bearish item in the marketalong with the expected 89 million acres of corn.Supportive news this week has come from optimismin the export market due to talk of China buyingcorn. Granted China has been a big buyer of DDGsand will likely source any initial imports from closerorigins such as Malaysia. Only if bigger issues arisein this growing season should we expect China tobecome a buyer of any big quantity of U.S. corn. Theweather has slowed some field work this past weekbut we do not see the weather as a supportive itemlooking further into April. The weekly export salesreport was an illustration of the recent demand atnew lows. The weekly total was at 1.357 million tons,and there was a light net reduction for new crop. Themajor buyers were South Korea, over 600,000, andJapan, 280,000 tons. Hedgers call with questions;this is a nice little bounce to catch up on a few salesand to get a floor under production to lock-in a closeto breakeven type number. Although we obviouslyhave our growing season to get through, the supplyside equation is big and could give us unfriendlyprices later in the year.

SOYBEANS 4/8/10Soybean trade is higher on the week heading

into Thursday with May beans up 11 cents, meal isaround steady and bean oil is up 102 points.November new crop beans are up 15 cents on theweek; of the negative USDA numbers last weekplanted 2010 soybean acres was not one of them.The soybean planting intentions number waslightly lower than expected, so the flat to firm tonethere was not a surprise. The weekly gains weremostly printed on Wednesday with the exception ofsoybean oil which broke out to the upside onTuesday. In the big picture we remain concerned ofthe downside. The crude trade has been a positiveinfluence for the soy complex, but it needs to holdstrength. The weekly soybean export sales num-bers were 205,700 tons of old crop and 238,100tons of new; this was within expectations. Mealsales were good at 211,900 and bean oil sales lowat 6,800 tons. The USDA report on Friday isexpected to have the 2009-10 carryover up to 210million versus the 190 million last month due tolower usage shown on the Quarterly Stocks reportlast week. The range of estimates is 170 to 242 mil-lion. Our expectation is for a 225 number. Therewere some heavy rains in South America whichhelped limit downside this week. Also there was acrowd looking for pressure this week; short cover-ing showed up on Wednesday when it did not occur.Hedgers we believe you should get caught up ondesired sales levels if you have not and call us todiscuss your individual situation.

As we consider all the items that make raisingsheep a challenge, internal parasites (worms) areright up there towards the top of the list.

A few facts on parasites will help us realize howimportant a strategic attack is for combating theseorganisms.

Since it spring, we need to realize that our pas-tures are not parasite larvae free. About 25 percentof the worm eggs shed last fall survived the winterand will hatch and develop into infective larvae asthe weather continues to warm up. Under idealconditions it takes 21 to 35 days from the time eggsare shed in the feces and deposited on the pastureuntil the larvae reach infective stage. The warmerthe weather the faster they develop to reach infec-tivity stage.

Larvae also have enough nutrients that they canexist for one to two months in this infective stage.The warmer the weather the faster they use uptheir food source and perish.

Lastly, some worms hibernate over winter in thesheep’s gut and become active egg layers in thespring. So ewes may have some worm load in thespring even though they have not consumed anylarvae for six months.

Other new facts on the parasite issue:• Twenty percent of the ewes shed 80 percent of

the eggs. Routinely treating the whole flock to treat20 percent is not good use of anthelmintic and maylead to more rapid build up of resistance to theanthelmintic.

• We generally do not want to rotateanthelmintics. The exception to this is if we need tocontrol tape worms.

• Sheep maintained in drylot should not have tobe de-wormed.

• Winter born lambs that are pushed hard andkept in confinement should also not need to bedewormed.

The best times to de-worm ewes are just prior toor at lambing. The hormonal changes associatedwith lambing sends a message to the internal par-asites and they become active and start laying eggs.It is good to remove this worm burden so as to min-imize the stress on the ewes and insure all her con-sumed nutrients can go to making milk for feedingher lambs rather than to mount an immuneresponse to fighting internal parasites.

The second most important time to treat forinternal parasites is just prior to pasture turnout.Dry ewes on good pasture may not need to be treat-ed again the remainder of the grazing season.

Lactating ewes and young lambs are much moresusceptible to internal parasites.

Lactating ewes are more susceptible becausetheir immune system is compromised by the highnutritional demands for lactation.

Young lambs have not developed any resistanceto internal parasites so they are at a huge risk.Additionally young lambs are trying to grow so thatthey have a higher nutritional requirement.

To improve the productivity of lactating ewes oneneeds to insure high quality feed from the pasture.This can be done by managing the plants so thatthey are vegetative and highly palatable resultingin maximum intake.

Incorporating legumes also improves the nutri-tional status with a more energy and protein denseforage. Another advantage legumes offer isincreased productivity in the hot summer months.This matches the needs of the grazing flock becauselambs start to compete with their dams for dry mat-ter intake under short pasture condition.

Some producers have successfully used self fedsoyhulls as a means of supplementing ewes andlambs on pasture.

The greatest challenge to parasite control is hav-ing clean pastures that we can move the ewes andlambs onto once we treat for internal parasites.

As discussed earlier larvae can be viable for 2-3months on pasture. Additionally, with some eggsoverwintering and hatching the next spring we can-not count on old man winter to make clean pasturesevery spring. Pastures that have not had sheepgrazing for six months would be considered safe.

The six month down time is from Januarythrough June or July through December. Mostoperations cannot leave half their pasture acres layidle to make them parasite free.

One option is to rotate between hay harvest andgrazing. This technique is restricted to those areaswhich are flat enough for equipment.

The other option for rougher ground is to rotateanimal species. Cows could graze for the first halfthe year and sheep for the last half of the year.Around the first of July cows and sheep could beswitched to the others pasture.

The last means of getting clean grass would be tostock pile forages starting in August and not graze

them until November after the ground freezes. Veryfew eggs would be shed in November and mostwould not survive the winter. However, stock pilinga pasture means we have to have more pastureland than the grazing herd needs. This is seldomthe case in August and early September.

The biggest mistake all producers make isassuming all thin sheep are wormy.

For a true evaluation of the parasite load in theflock one needs to run fecal analysis. Your local vet-erinarian should be able to provide you with fecalegg counts. Generally, counts below 300 eggs pergram would not indicate the need for treatment.

FAMANCHA is patented system of compar-ing a standard eyeball pictures with varyingdegrees of anemia to the ewe or lamb. This sys-tem has been heavily implemented in areas ofthe country that are seeing resistance toanthelmintics but only addresses haemonc-hous contortus (barber pole worm). This is themost prevalent parasite in Iowa. Only thoseanimals which show symptoms of anemia aretreated.

The FAMANCHA system requires lots ofwork as all sheep need to be caught and evalu-ated every two weeks. One needs to realize thatFAMANCHA.

The haemonchous feeds on blood over timecausing anemia that will end in death.

Bottle jaw is an accumulation of fluids underthe chin of severely infected sheep.

Generally, haemonchous does not result indiarrhea and dirty butts on lambs. For morereading on alternative parasite control see Dr.Ray Kaplan’s Web sitehttp://www.scsrpc.org/SCSRPC/Participants/kaplan.htm. FAMACHA training will again beoffered at this year’s Iowa Lamb and WoolFestival in Adel. See ISIA Web page for details.

A cross country trip from an almond farm inModesto, California, with an 11-head group ofBoer goat does marked the beginning of JustKiddin’ Boer Goats.

Adam and Robin Fedders met, married, andworked at Robin’s family’s orchard in California,though Adam is originally from Sioux Center.

When they first acquired goats they grazed inthe retired almond orchard once the trees wereremoved. It is the natural preference of goats toeat brush, along with grass and grain, Robinexplained.

They entered two of the “catch-able” goats in anopen class show there, just for fun one weekend,and took second and third place.

The Fedders moved to Iowa in 2005 and tookpart of the herd with them. Adam’s family farmsjust five or six miles from their acreage.

They moved, Adam said, “To have a little placelike this, an acreage, near a small town to raiseour family.”

Adam and Robin have three sons, Jasper, ageeight, four-year-old Everett, and Stetsen, who isthree.

From that time, they have added breeding stockpurchased in Iowa and Texas from well-known,and historically important breeder Don Smith. Hewas among those that imported the first Boergoats into this country from New Zealand.

“It felt like we had a little heritage getting thosegoats,” Robin commented.

The does are bred once a year, timed to kid inJanuary and February so the kids will be weanedand of the appropriate size for sale as club proj-ects.

Others are sold for meat; chevon is especiallypopular around Easter.

Adam, in addition to breeding and selling showgoats, conducts clinics for those interested inlearning about goat production and how to selectand prepare a goat for showing.

Goats are bathed and clipped before shows.Since goats can be kind of hyper, Robin said, the

handler also needs to practice walking the goat on

a leash. It takes at least a week for the goats to getused to this.

The Fedders learned about goats and showingfrom attending shows and talking to other breed-ers and competitors.

Adam said, “In Boer goats, you are looking formeat and power.”

Robin elaborated that the goat’s conformationshould include a Roman nose that is in a smoothcurve from the nose through the horns, which archback over the head. Boer goats typically have a redhead and a white body. They should have a wide,flat back and sturdy, straight legs and feet, sheadded.

The American Boer Goat Association sanctionsshows conducted in Iowa and additional informa-tion about breed standards are available at theorganization’s Web site, www.abga.org.

For example, the Never Boering open showtakes place at the Sioux County fairgrounds July9 and 10. This is the fourth year of the show andmore than 300 head are expected to be shown.

It has grown from just 10 head in the first year,Adam stated.

The annual Northwest Iowa Club Sale andClinic that takes place in April each year drawsbuyers from the tri-state area.

In addition to raising goats, Adam is the presi-dent of the Iowa Meat Goat Association and GoatSuperintendent for the Sioux County Youth Fair;he also works as a building inspector for SiouxCenter.

As their kids get older - Jasper will be in his firstyear of 4-H this year - the Fedders plan to partic-ipate in additional shows.

“We’ll probably slowly build the herd up with topquality Boer goats,” Adam said.

They have saved back a couple does from lastyear’s kid crop and will breed them for the firsttime this year. Robin said the does are usuallybred once they are at least a year of age.

Researchers, manufacturers, farmers and applicators collaborate to control drift

Researchers today are transforming weed con-trol with new precision tools and application tech-niques that can keep herbicides precisely wherethey belong. As a result, farmers are able to opti-mize the performance of herbicides and minimizethe small amounts that drift off target as they arebeing applied.

One of the latest breakthroughs involves low-drift nozzles that can significantly reduce the pro-portion of very fine (small) spray droplets that aresusceptible to drift.

“These low-drift nozzles are really having a rev-

olutionary impact,” said Dr. Tom Wolf, a researchscientist with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canadaand a member of the Weed Science Society ofAmerica (WSSA). “Research shows we can reducethe spray that drifts away from its target to lessthan 0.5 percent of the applied amount. That’s adecrease of more than 80 percent compared to con-ventional sprays.”

The secret is a clever design that reduces theinternal operating pressure of the sprayer nozzleand mixes air into the herbicide spray as it isapplied.

“We’ve seen nearly 100 percent adoption amongcustom applicators in Canada, and up to 50 per-cent of the more innovative growers on largefarms are using them as well,” Wolf said. “Theyhave clearly found the devices work well in theiroperations.”

Still, there are obstacles to even broader adop-tion. Not all weeds andall herbicides respondthe same way whenchanges are made toreduce the number ofvery fine spray droplets.

“It can be tough toprovide practical recom-mendations to applica-tors on diversifiedfarms,” Wolf said. “Butscientists are meetingthat challenge by com-municating theirresearch findings toherbicide manufactur-ers and applicatorsalike. We’re finding low-drift sprays can be usedsuccessfully in themajority of situationsan applicator is likely toencounter.”

Robert Klein, a WSSAmember and crop spe-cialist at Nebraska’sWest Central Researchand Extension Center,recommends combiningmultiple drift controlstrategies in order toachieve optimal results.Here are eight proventechniques he recom-mends:

1. INCREASE SPRAYC O A R S E N E S S .Switching to low-driftnozzles has a largeimpact on drift. For tra-ditional nozzles, lower-ing pressure can alsoincrease droplet size

and reduce drift. There is a fine line, however,between droplets that are too small (causingexcessive drift) and too large (providing insuffi-cient coverage). Look to your nozzle manufacturerfor guidance on the recommended pressure. Low-drift nozzles typically require a higher pressure tooperate properly.

2. GAUGE THE WEATHER. Environmental fac-tors can be critical to the control of spray drift.Klein cites wind speed as one important example.“When wind speed increases, so does the potentialfor drift downwind of the sprayer,” Klein said.Today’s ultrasonic weather sensors can help. A farcry from yesterday’s rudimentary weather vanes,sensors measure air temperature, humidity, dewpoint, barometric pressure, wind chill, wind direc-tion and wind speed. The units are extremely com-pact and can be mounted inside a sprayer cab.That means the applicator has continuous, up-to-date weather data and can apply herbicides whenthey are least likely to drift.

3. CONTROL THE FLOW. Modulated flow con-trols reduce drift by rapidly pulsing each spraynozzle on and off. This allows pressure and dropletsize to remain constant as the sprayer movesacross the field at various speeds.

4. REV UP THE AIR SPEED. Air-assistedsprayers emit a high-velocity, downward airstream that pushes the spray droplets directlyonto the targeted weeds or treatment area. As aresult, they can reduce drift if used properly.

5. CREATE A BUFFER. Untreated zones aroundfields can serve as buffers that keep drift awayfrom off-target sites.

6. ADD DRIFT RETARDANTS. If you use a tra-ditional sprayer, special additives can be used toreduce the number of fine droplets. Make certain,though, that you select an additive especiallydesigned for the type of nozzle and herbicide youuse. Certain additives can be a minus when usedwith the wrong nozzle tip.

7. HOOD YOUR SPRAYER. By mounting hoodsaround the nozzles on a sprayer boom, you cancreate a physical barrier that reduces spray drift.It’s a simple but effective technique.

8. MONITOR THE BOOM HEIGHT. Extensionspecialists recommend keeping booms close toyour weed target in order to decrease the possibil-ity of downwind drift. But be careful to follow themanufacturer’s instructions so you maintain theuniform spray pattern and coverage needed tocontrol weeds effectively.

“Each of these approaches has its strong points,”Klein said. “In order to make sure we’re using theoptimal combination of techniques for each sce-nario, it is important for scientists, applicators,farmers and manufacturers to communicate close-ly and share best practices. That’s one of thestrengths of WSSA. The organization bringseveryone together to share research and explorethe best science-based approaches for managingdrift.”

HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSIONS

by Brian Hoops, President,Midwest Market Solutions, Inc.(Report as of April 5)

Corn: The month of March, was a bearishmonth for corn as corn lost 44 cents from the pre-vious month’s close.

In the prospective plantings report, the USDAestimated U.S. producers would increase 2010corn by 2.298 million from last year to 88.798 mil-lion acres. This will be the second largest seededacres estimate in history, trailing only the year1946.

With the lower input values of corn, the prof-itability of corn will encourage additional acres ofcorn to be seeded this spring, providing a wetspring would prevent additional plantings.

Like the month of March, April will have com-mercial and seasonal traders buying weakness fora potential summer weather rally as the recordlarge demand base will have end users very nerv-ous about weather and this year’s growing season.

U.S. producers will begin seeding corn acres bymid-April and weather will become very impor-tant to pricing by May. If the month of April is wetand hampers producers planting efforts, look forDecember corn to rally in an effort to entice pro-ducers to plant corn later, rather than switchacres to soybeans.

Currently, the United States is experiencing apattern of hot and dry weather; however thisweather pattern is forecast to change to a cool andwet pattern the last week of April.

Soybeans: The month of March was bearish forsoybeans as futures closed 20 cents lower inMarch compared to February.

In the prospective plantings report, the USDAestimated U.S. producers will need to plant

598,000 more acres in 2010. Producers do notappear willing to increase seedings more than thisas profitability of soybeans versus corn favorscorn at this time.

The quarterly stocks report and world endingstocks ensure the world has an adequate supply ofsoybeans, and the market is not signaling to pro-ducers to increase seeded acres in 2010.

In the month of April, the soybean market hasone simple job, to rebound and compete again withcorn this spring so it does not lose any acres.

In the acreage report, the USDA estimated the2010 soybean acres at 78.098 million. Thisacreage forecast is the largest in history.

In April, soybeans should find support from aneffort to return to profitability to encourage farm-ers to not switch from corn to soybeans. Also, aplanting season that is slowed by heavy rains willencourage farmers to switch plantings of corn overto soybeans, therefore look for soybeans to main-tain their premium to corn to ensure adequatesupplies of soybean stocks.

Wheat: It was a lower month for wheat prices inMarch as Chicago wheat closed the month 68 3/4cents lower than the previous month.

April is the month that the United States winterwheat crop is now in the key yield developmenttime frame. Wheat has broken dormancy and willgrow into the winter wheat harvest which startsin June.

April and May are the months where winterwheat yields will be made or lost. As in any keyyield development timeframe, if April brings littlemoisture, prices will soar. If there is plenty ofrain, prices will fall.

Our winter crop is about 70 percent of our totalU.S. production, and goes mainly to the exportmarket. Improved quality because of ample rain-

fall means better export business after harvestends.

Crop ratings are above average for early Aprilwith Kansas at 70 percent good to excellent andOklahoma at 66 percent good to excellent. Kansasand Oklahoma are our two largest winter wheatstates. Texas has a rating of 60 percent good toexcellent.

Our spring wheat crop is currently being seededand producers will finish in May. Spring wheatrepresents about one third of our U.S. production,and mainly goes to U.S. millers for domestic use.

As recently as 1996-97, U.S. producers seededapproximately 19 million acres of spring wheat.For 2010, the USDA is forecasting U.S. producersto seed 13.906 million acres this spring, up 4.8percent from one year ago.

The large world ending stocks will be a limitingfactor for wheat prices this spring as any loss ofyield is made up for by the huge carryout levels.

He has been quoted in theWall Street Journal, Bloomberg and Dow Jonesnewswires and U.S. Farm Report.

What to expect in April

It takes more finesse when working withsheep, he added. Dogs that work with cattle,especially stubborn cows, are trained to “grip”them to establish a respectful relationship. Thedog “grips” the stock’s nose with its teeth.

“You can tell on a dog when they’re ready towork or not,” he stated. Training begins any-where from six months to a year of age, depend-ing on the personality of the dog. The dogs’ tem-perament also determines how much time thehandler has to spend with them, sometimes on adaily basis - especially in the early stages oftraining - and how long it takes before the dog isuseable.

“Work to these dogs is just like play to anyother dog,” stated Dukes.

When more experienced dogs come in proximi-ty to livestock, their attention and concentrationis focused on the animal, with just enoughreserved to follow the handler’s directions.Dukes called this “eye.”

“You can’t stress that natural ability enough,”he said. The innate skill is what helps the dogsto work out of the sight line of the handler.”

Though, he noted, “Anything that’s going tomove, a border collie is going to herd.”

For this reason, it is important for the dogs tobe contained when they are not working, he said.It is an instruction Dukes gives to all those whoget pups from him.

His dogs live in a converted hog house. One ofhis first collies even helped herd the hogs in andout of the pens and load them on trucks.

Dukes recalled having “brand X” dogs beforehe acquired his first border collie in 1990. Hehad a town job and in 1975 began farming.

Border collies, he said, “are so much smarterthan any other dog…they’ve got an instinct togather stock to you.

“I wish I would have gotten into these things20 years earlier than I did.”

Other herding dogs include heelers, alsoknown as Australian cattle dogs, and Australianshepherds.

Dukes noted a big difference between bordercollies and heelers is that heelers instinctivelydrive stock away from the handler. The training,then, is undertaken in an almost opposite fash-ion, though both types of dogs can be taught tobring livestock towards and away from the han-dler.

The inspiration to get a herding dog, Dukesrecalled, came after he’d spent at least an hourrunning around a feed lot, yelling. After thatexperience, he said he was all tired out but thecalves really hadn’t gone where he wanted themto anyhow. He figured there must be a betterway.

With his first dog, Dukes learned trainingtechniques from an experienced handler. Heinsisted this is the best way for a novice handlerto learn workable, proven methods.

To learn more about dog training, Dukesjoined the Nebraska Stock Dog Association andthe Iowa Herding Dog Association; both organi-zations had clinics and training videos avail-able.

In addition to organizational events, Dukessoon began participating in field trials anddemonstrations. These field events take placeacross United States. Dukes attends trials pri-marily in Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri.

The trials involve either sheep or cattle andconsist of a course with tasks such as driving thestock through a gate, around cones, into a pen,or into a chute. Depending on the level of compe-

tition, novice to open (expert) classes, the dogsmay also be required to separate the stock intotwo groups, called a “shed.”

The trials ask a little more of a dog than whatthey are needed for on the farm, Dukes said.

Dukes’ dog Drew was the 2009 NationalWestern Stock (which takes place in Denver,Colorado) Show Reserve Grand Champion andfinished that course within two seconds of thegrand champion. Points are also awarded to thetasks.

He commented, “When people give compli-ments on the dogs, it means more than all thetrials you could win.”

At these field events, Dukes said he observesdogs to discover those that have capabilities hehas not yet developed in his own and then hevisits with the other handlers so is constantlylearning.

Dukes also offers demonstrations with hisdogs, for example at the local school’s ag day,Living History Farms, and the Farm ProgressShow.

He is the herding dog trial coordinator for thecompetition at the Adair County Fair; the trialtakes place on July 25

Dukes even takes in dogs to train for otherpeople. Within one to two months, he said, youcan have a fairly useable herding dog.

While Dukes and his wife Audrey live on thefamily homestead, one of their daughters livesjust across the section. Another daughter livesin Waterloo. The Dukes have four grandkids.
