Yes consumers think they want to know when asked what would they like to know on the label. The real question is would consumer pay more to have a certain claim on the label. For most claims they would not. The next questions is do they know what the claims mean. For example natural is highly...

What nozzle do you have on the small hose?  I would use the nozzle for the double blower and not the single blower nozzle.

I don't understand why there is any discussion.  The winners of this market steer show are terminal.  When a carcass is tested for drug residue and excedes allowable limits by law the carcass is tanked.  I don't know the law in Canada, but knowingly presenting something to slaughter without...

Well it's a pretty long run from the panel, so we are going with 2 20 amp breakers and will run 10 gauge wire to 20 amp outlets. 

We just upgraded to a double blower and was wondering how members ran power supply for their blowers.  We have have an older barn with some old wiring.  We put in a new panel and will run new wire as well.  Thanks in advance.

At first look, that is a really clean tractor, but the price seems on the high side.  I did a little looking around.  Here is a 4850 for 39900 with less hours, but not the same rubber. http://dubuque.craigslist.org/grd/3589935518.html

I am not familiar with that feed. How much fiber does it have?  Is he getting any hay.  Good clean water supply.  Does he sort his feed at all?  How many feedings a day?

I haven't seen much out of him yet. Only 6 calves registered right now.  I would expect Janssen's have some on the ground.

I think this has been discussed some before.  There just happens to be more black cattle and thus increasing the odds that one may win a show.  There are also advantages in hiding flaws on black cattle with a good fit job and hair.  It depends on what your goals are.  Do you want to win a breed...

This can be a tricky subject.  I cannot recall an instance with our show steers where I felt like I couldn't sell him.  I grew up on a diversified livestock farm, dairy cows, farrow to finish hogs, and crops.  From a very young age I knew what it meant to care for animal and at some point you...

When I got started I thought the very same thing, as I didn't have a family with a background in showing beef cattle.  I remember saying I have these red calves and I am getting beat by black calves, so I just had to have a black calf.  I got beat just the same.  It took a few years for me to...

Dream on has been used about everywhere, and it will make stylish females for.  If you don't plan on breeing back Simmental, and it was a good deal go for it. Was #1 registration bull I also like the Ellingson Legacy bull, won't pretty them up much, but should throw some base width, and are...

I know that In Dew Time was mentioned on a couple threads recently as a good Simmy calving ease option.  He also has sexed semen available.  Here's a couple pictures.  They range from 3/4 to pb.  All get around well, cavled easy and were vigorous at birth.  I didn't just fall in love with them...

I was wondering if anyone knew anything on the new genex sire MCM Top Grade.  He is a son of Upgrade, and looks to be made right.  Are there any calves out there?  Anyon know about the cow backing him?

I didn't see them for sale on Kirk's site either.  Thanks for your help, I will contact him directly.

I am looking to buy the Steirwalt DVDs for my neice, as she is just getting into showing.  Does anyone know where I can buy them.  I only found the Guyer dvd at Sullivans. 

It all really depends on what you think you want to do after school, which will probably change 10 times between now and graduation.  Iowa State grads are highly recruited in pharmeceutical, meat, and swine businesses.  It all really depends if you want to be in production agriculture or the...

We had crossbred cow prolapse last year while having a Dr. Who calf.  She died before the vet got there.  Calf didn't survive either.  Stoutest calf we had ever had.  She had always had reasonably sized calves.  Makes me sick just thinking about loosing that cow and calf.  We do have a couple...

http://www.ams.usda.gov/mnreports/lm_xb403.txt Attached is the link for beef cuts from today's market.  It shows both choice and select, the range and weighted average.  This is published each week day.  For future reference most meat and livestock prices are reported on the following page...
