2016 CORN Newsletter
From Sam Custer
OSU Extension, Darke County

Please find below this week’s CORN Newsletter.  We have a feature article regarding our upcoming Corn College within it.
 
Four new articles have been posted in this week’s 968th issue of the Ohio BEEF Cattle letter: http://u.osu.edu/beef/
 
It seems like we hear it nearly every year . . . “My cows are eating all they want, and while they seem full, it appears they’re losing weight.”
 
“I’ve got some cows that act like they are open.”
 
“My fall born calves seem unthrifty, and some are week. I’ve lost a few.”
 
“I had a cow that could hardly get back up after she calved . . . just seemed weak.”
 
But, this is the one that likely sums it up best . . . “I just got this forage analysis back . . . it’s not very good, is it?”
 
This week, Jeff Fisher, Chris Bruynis, Jeff Moore, and Steve Boyles share what they found when they recently looked at several southern Ohio forage samples.
 
Articles include:
Hay Quality Determines Supplementation Needs
Feeding Livestock and Managing Forage Waste
OCA Accepting Bull Consignments for Seedstock Improvement Sale - Deadline February 1
Thoughts on the Cattle Industry in 2016
