Improved performance of red worms (Eisenia andrei) in compost of cattle manure rinsed with water
To achieve satisfactory results with vermiculture, it is important to know how many times to rinse cattle manure to eliminate salts. Treatments under evaluation were 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 rinses in a tap water: manure ratio of 1 : 1 (v/v). Electrical Conductivity (EC), Biomass of Worms (BW) and Number of Cocoons (NC) were evaluated. The EC ranged from 2.57 to 0.5 dS·m−1 for T0 and T4. ...

Cattle gain and crop yield for a dryland wheat-sorghum-fallow rotation
Increasing pumping costs and declining well capacities in the U.S. Southern High Plains have led to greater reliance on less productive and inherently riskier dryland cropping systems. Dryland wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] are typically grown in a 3-yr wheat-sorghum-fallow (WSF) rotation that may be intensified by integrating cattle (Bos taurus) ...

South East framing review
Drilling a borehole on a farm can cost less than a conventional water supply and cut the carbon footprint from pumping and treating mains water. "There is an environmental as well as a cost argument for drilling a borehole,' said Ben Nicholls, joint managing director with his brother Richard of Nicholls Boreholes, which is based in West Sussex. Nicholls Boreholes is in an office on an organic ...

Reducing the impact of summer cattle grazing on water quality in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California: a proposal
The Sierra Nevada Mountain range serves as an important source of drinking water for the State of California. However, summer cattle grazing on federal lands affects the overall water quality yield from this essential watershed as cattle manure is washed into the lakes and streams or directly deposited into these bodies of water. This organic pollution introduces harmful microorganisms and also ...

Ensuring bio security in cattle production - Case Study
Central America’s largest meat producer looks to ensure their livestock’s bio security in Mexico and Nicaragua. With 1,058,000 livestock over multiple locations in Central America, a solution was urgently needed that could meet their demanding and distributed waste management needs. A thermal treatment solution is needed As the largest meat producer in Central America with ...

Bacterial contamination in Fresh produce
Fresh fruit and vegetables are an important part of our diet. If produce is contaminated by poorly sourced water, however, the implications can be fatal. While many people associate foodborne illness with meat and dairy, it is important to recognize that fruits and vegetables can pose a significant threat to public health if hygienic water sourcing is not upheld. We take a closer look this week ...

Nutrient export in run-off from an in-field cattle overwintering site in East-Central Saskatchewan
Wintering cattle directly in the field creates potential concerns with water quality, as nutrients added from urine and fecal material over the winter can end up in runoff water, ground water and soil. In 2008/2009 an experiment was conducted to observe the effect of in-field winter feeding of cows on the nutrients in spring snowmelt run-off water. Low temperatures give little opportunity for ...

Evaluation of cattle bedding and grazing BMPs in an agricultural watershed in Alberta
This paper highlights the environmental impacts of implementing beneficial management practices to address cattle bedding and direct access to the creek in a study watershed in southern Alberta, Canada. Approximately 35 cow–calf pairs grazed 194 ha of grass forage and had direct access to the creek in the spring and summer. During winter, the cattle were fed adjacent to the creek at an old ...
