Heifer sale set for this Friday
CARTHAGE, Mo. — A Show-Me-Select heifer sale will be held at 7 p.m. Friday at Joplin Regional Stockyards, Carthage.
The sale is to have 125 bred heifers that will have passed various health and reproductive examinations. They also will have received official Brucellosis calf vaccinations and been negative prior to the sale. They will have been tested and found negative for BVD-PI.
The sale includes a new level of participation that requires Tier Two SMS heifers to be sired by bulls that have attained certain levels of expected progeny difference accuracy for calving ease, weaning weight, carcass weight and meat marbling.
Sale catalogs are available at University of Missouri Extension offices in Southwest Missouri. Data can be seen at extension.missouri.edu/lawrence/.
All heifers in the sale will have been raised on area beef cattle farms. Heifers are expected to have calves from the middle of August to late November, said Eldon Cole, extension livestock specialist at Mount Vernon.
Details: (417) 466-3102.
Poultry litter adds nitrogen to plants
COLUMBUS, Kan. — Incorporating poultry litter increases the amount of nitrogen to plants the initial year, said Dennis Elbrader, Kansas State University Extension agriculture agent at Columbus.
Incorporating litter will enable 60 percent of the nitrogen to be used for plants, compared with 50 percent available when it is spread on the surface.
The second year after application, 12 percent of the litter is available when litter is spread on the surface compared to 15 percent when incorporated into the soil.
Elbrader said the best use of poultry litter comes when incorporating it into the soil as soon as possible after it is removed from the poultry house.
Details about poultry litter as fertilizer are at www.poultrywaste.okstate.edu. It also can be found at www.oznet.ksu.edu/cherokee.
