Poisonous Plants in the Pasture

Saison 4

vendredi 6 septembre 2024 • Durée 01:05:20

This week our special guest will be Cliff Little, Agriculture Educator from Ohio State Extension to talk about "Poisonous Plants in Pastures and the Landscape”.
Recognizing poisonous plants and properly managing animals, pastures and hay fields will help minimize the potential of poisoning animals. Most poisonings occur in the early spring or during a drought when feed is short. Plants which animal normally will not eat become a potential source of food and a potential source for poisoning, because animals are hungry and searching for food. Also, some herbicides may increase the palatability of some weeds.
Nitrate poisonings, acorns, buckeyes, water and poison hemlock, cyanide poisoning caused by sorghum species and chokecherry plants, glycoside poisoning from nightshades and cocklebur and photosensitive skin reactions from St. Johnswort and buckwheat are just a few issues livestock producers may deal with.
Homeowners deal with poison ivy, Tree of Heaven, pokeweed, nightshades, stinging nettle and other weeds, ornamentals and houseplants.
Cliff will share his insights and management tips to avoid poisonous plants and treatment options for affected animals and people.

Dealing with Drought with Dr. Ed Rayburn

Saison 3

vendredi 30 août 2024 • Durée 01:03:49

This week our special guest will be WVU Extension retired Agronomy Specialist Dr. Ed Rayburn to talk about "Drought Management for Livestock Farmers in West Virginia”
The summer of 2024 has been exceptionally dry. Pasture and hay production has been severely reduced by lack of rain fall and extreme heat. Since 1900, West Virginia has experienced several noteworthy droughts, including 1904, 1930–31, 1941, 1954, 1966, and 1988.
Many livestock farmers are hauling water as water sources have been severely affected by the lack of rainfall. In addition, they are also feeding winter hay reserves as grass growth in pastures has slowed significantly. Hay will be in short supply and is increasing in price.
Farmers should also take this opportunity to implement any needed management changes. Managed grazing practices such as pasture rotation, sufficient recovery periods, and appropriate stocking rates make pastures naturally more tolerant of drought conditions.
Dr. Rayburn will discuss strategies farmers can utilize to minimize the effects of drought on livestock production and profitability.

Backyard Fruit Trees with Adams County Nursery

mercredi 8 mai 2024 • Durée 01:01:12

Growing tree fruits in the home orchard or landscape can be an interesting and satisfying hobby. Fruit trees do, however, require considerable care, and people who are not willing or able to devote some time to their home orchard probably will be disappointed in their harvests. When fruit trees are carefully selected, properly located, and well managed, they can enhance the home landscape and provide fresh fruit for the family.

The Amazing Grazing Project with Dr. Matt Poore of NC State Extension

Saison 4

vendredi 2 février 2024 • Durée 01:05:54

This week our special guest will be Dr. Matt Poore from North Carolina State Extension discussing the “Amazing Grazing Project”.
Pasture management is extremely important to any livestock producer. Amazing Grazing is a pasture-based livestock educational initiative that began at North Carolina’s Center for Environmental Farming Systems and has developed into a statewide program through North Carolina State Extension.

The program includes producer workshops, interagency advisor workshops, and research and demonstration projects. The three major themes of the Amazing Grazing Program are improved profitability, improved animal health and improved environmental sustainability.

Pasture-based production systems that achieve these three themes are good for farmers, good for their neighbors, and good for our non-farming population.Matt will discuss management strategies he teaches through the Amazing Grazing Project to improve the health of both pasture fields and livestock and increase your profits.

Prepping for Lambing & Kidding with Dr. Andrew Weaver, NC State Extension

Saison 4

lundi 22 janvier 2024 • Durée 01:03:08

Nutrition is one of the keys to healthy livestock and extremely important before lambing and kidding season. Nearly 70% of fetal growth occurs during the last 4 to 6 weeks of pregnancy, while rumen capacity is decreasing. The result is the need for increased nutrition, usually from a more nutrient-dense diet. Extra nutrition is needed to support fetal growth, especially if there are multiple fetuses. Extra feed is needed to support mammary development and ensure a plentiful milk supply. Proper nutrition will ensure the birth of strong, healthy offspring of moderate birth weight.

Birth weight is highly correlated to lamb and kid survival, with low and high birth weight offspring usually experiencing the highest mortality. Dr. Andrew Weaver will discuss management strategies producers can use to get ready before lambs and kids are born this 2024 season to increase the survival and health of our livestock.

Breeding Back Better

Saison 4

vendredi 12 janvier 2024 • Durée 01:04:21

This week our special guest will be Dean Kreager from Ohio State Extension to talk about "Getting Cows Bred Back”.

Reproductive efficiency has long been recognized as the most economically important aspect of commercial beef production. Numerous research studies have shown that reproduction is several times more important than growth or carcass traits. Simply put, genetic superiority in any trait doesn’t matter if the beef female doesn’t get bred and deliver a live calf for the producer. Today’s cow-calf producers place high production demands on their beef cows for them to remain in the herd. Producers expect cows to calve without difficulty, provide enough colostrum and milk for a rapidly growing calf, come in heat quickly after calving and conceive early in the breeding season. Dean is an extension educator for Ohio State University Extension and he will share some insights and management practices to get cows bread back sooner, a higher percentage of the herd bread back within 60 days and improve profitability on the farm.

Prepping Livestock for Winter

Saison 3

lundi 4 décembre 2023 • Durée 01:08:11

This week our special guest will be Clif Little from The Ohio State University to talk about "Preparing for Winter with Livestock”. As winter is quickly approaching us, we want everyone to be prepared to care for their livestock. Livestock farmers should plan for adequate feed, making sure our animals have plenty of fresh water and access to dry areas that can block some wind. Preparation should begin before winter hits to ensure that you have the proper amounts of hay or forages stored for the cold season as well as making sure that barns and other shelters and winter equipment are repaired before we get into the heart of winter. Clif will share some recommendations and ideas for your checklist to prepare your farm for the upcoming winter weather.
