Peace Region well represen Junior Nationals

Byron Hackett Staff writer

Fort St. John’s Tyrel Roberts was among the best performers out of the 11 Peace Region riders that made the trip to Des Moines, Iowa for the Junior National Rodeo Finals.

Roberts put up a personal best time to finish 28th in the first round of Goat Tying event and finished overall in 105th place.

More than 1000 competitors from across Canada, United States and Australia competed in 12 different events over the six-day competition.

Roberts said he wasn’t intimidated by the large crowd or the competition and was happy with his performance.

“It was really fun and exciting and I enjoyed it a lot,” he said. “I had a personal best in Goat Tying. I placed 28th out of 151 people in the first round.”

British Columbia High School Rodeo Association vicepresident and junior nationals director Rod Keith said overall he was proud with the way the kids rode.

“It is a pretty big deal for the kids. They put a lot of time and effort to qualify to go there and they compete against about 150 kids in each event. They all had a good time,” he said.

Keith said there isn’t much in the way of expectations for the kids, but he made sure to let them know to enjoy the experience.

“Just go out and rodeo hard and have a good time. Where you end up is where you end up,” Keith explained about his advice for his own son before the events. “As long as they go out and try their best and our happy with the way they competed. If they had done everything they could to set themselves up before we leave home, however it works out

it works out when we get there.”

Dexter Keith was another top performer for the Peace Region. He finished the event with a final average of 35.31, which was good enough for 67th place. Keith also competed in the Boys Breakaway Roping where he finished 70th overall along with another 70th place finish in Boys Goat Tying.

Fallyn Mills, the daughter of rodeo champion Daryl Mills, was the top female finisher of all the riders from the region with a 30th place finish in the girls Goat Tying first round and an overall 56th place. She also combined with Derek Hadland of Fort St. John to come 91st overall in the Ribbon Roping event. Hadland also finished 76th overall in Boys Chute Dodging, 40th in the Boys Breakaway and 106th in Boys Goat Tying.

MaKalya Jones of Dawson Creek finished 133rd out of 180 competitors in Pole Bending during her first ever visit to the Junior Nationals event.

Tommi-Sue Little of Groundbirch ended up in 77th place overall in Barrel Racing after finishing 109th in the first round and 73rd in the second round. She also finished 71st overall in the Girls Goat Tying Event.

Chetwynd native Jenna Drinkall took home 68th overall in the Girls Breakaway roping event.

Breakfast Brief

Diverging Sentiment

We’re getting to that point in the growing season where most producers are getting a general idea of what their crops are looking like. Of course, your expectations are completely dependent on where you are farm and there is a fairly wide divergence of conditions out there right now. Eastern Saskatchewan & Western Manitoba continue to be under water while the most recent Alberta crop report shows that 83 per cent of crops are rated in good-to-excellent condition (five-year average is 69 per cent) but are still lagging behind in terms of development. The Canadian Loonie is also rising which is making it harder for U.S. buyers to get aggressive in the Canadian markets. On the other side of the border, all U.S. crops have recently received U.S.D.A. good-to-excellent ratings above both last year’s levels and their five-year averages. However, bulls are more likely to make more noise (and news) than bears and not all areas are in great condition, creating some diverging ideas as to what this year’s crop really looks like.

Most of the market has dropped off recently, with corn below four dollars a bushel and soybeans now into the 12 dollar level. University of Illinois ag economists recently suggested that a 173.6 bushel per acre U.S. national average isn’t out of reach at this point (the USDA’s last estimate was for 165.3 – multiply either number by the U.S.D.A.’s 84.3 million acres that are expected to be harvested and you have a 14 billion bushel crop). It’s also been pointed out that below normal temperatures during pollination has historically produced big corn yields like in 2004 and 2009. Corn isn’t the only crop looking alive and well – Purdue ag economist Chris Hurt has suggested that the U.S. soybean crop “is about the fourth best crop in the last 30 years.” While the record for national average soybean yields was 51 bu/ac set in 2004, Mr. Hurt forecasts that if the weather conditions remain ideal (not too hot, not to cool), then 52 bu/ac is possible.

However, the game-changer could be late July/early August when plants start podding.

Estimates are starting to come out as to what may be lost in the Canadian Prairies to the late seeding season and the subsequent wet weather in western Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan. Multiple analysts are calling for around six million acres of seeded Western Canadian land will be lost this year, including over two million canola acres. I would suggest that this number may be a little preliminary as even just a few days of warm weather has brought some fields back from the dead, as evidenced by most recent provincial crop reports. Further, production in areas that are looking good will likely offset poor yields from the aforementioned wet areas, putting total output somewhere near the five-year average for the Canadian Prairies. What’s for certain though is that everyone in Western Canada won’t be taking off a record crop again. Accordingly, there will likely be some levels in the coming weeks to take advantage of in terms of locking something in before harvest selling pressure hits the market full tilt. As always, no better way to find the price that you’re looking for than by posting your grain on the FarmLead Marketplace and exposing it literally to hundreds of buyers in one shot.

What’s For Dinner?

A Recipe For Harvesting Forages

By: Monika Benoit It seems as though time has been flowing by particularly quickly, and it’s hard to believe that it is time to think about putting up feed for the year. As we start to make our plans for harvesting forage, there are a few things that we can reflect on about last year’s calf crop and the condition that our cows were in as they went out to grass this year. Nu-trition plays a huge role in our cow herd’s performance, and overall, the profitability of our operations. A few good indicators of how sound your nutrition program was over the past year include: • How many open cows you had; • The body condition score of your cows; • How many cows calved within the first 60 days of calving; • Calf health, size, vigor and growth rate.

This gives us a great chance to make a few decisions this year, as we prepare to harvest our forages, that could help to improve all of these areas for next year. The main ingredient in the diets of our cows is forage, and we can do our best to harvest it at the stages of maturity that will give us the required nutrient levels for each stage of production. Harvesting forages earlier in the season will give us a higher quality feed, which has the potential to save us money. If your forages are cut later and of low quality, the feed will likely not meet the nutrient requirements of your cows, which will mean supplementation and an extra cost will be required, or it will lead to the production problems men-tioned above. Cutting forages at a later maturity will give you greater yield than cutting early; making a plan to har-vest some high quality feed as well as some lower quality feed and then balancing your rations in the fall using a com-bination of feeds is

an ideal way to feed a cow herd. There are things we can’t control of course, namely, the weather, but there are also a few options that we can choose from for putting up our feed. One of the precautionary measures that can be taken is getting all feed sources tested for nutrient content. It is surprising how feed values can change year to year, and a little extra information is never a bad thing to have.

Making Hay While The Sun Shines The standard method for putting up feed in the Peace Country for cowcalf herds is making dry hay. There are multiple methods that producers use to decide when to cut their hay, and deci-sions are based on maturity of the forage, the weather, and the labour and equipment available. Nutritional quality will be highest when the plants are still growing and in the vegetative stage. During and after flowering, the protein and energy contents of a plant decrease.

One of the biggest challenges with making dry hay is getting it to dry down enough to bale. A few techniques are used to speed up the drying process, including making wider swaths so that the forage receives more sunlight. According to UNL Forage Specialist, Bruce Anderson, research has shown that important factors in hay dry-down are sunlight, temperature, humidity, wind speed and soil moisture. However, they are not nearly as important as solar radiation. Sun bleaching may occur, but this is only visual, and your overall forage quality won’t be compromised. New research being done in Manitoba and eastern Canada looking at increasing the sugar content of forages for cattle has shown that sunny conditions increase the sugar content of harvested forage, making it more palatable and higher in energy.

When the hay is cut in a wide swath, the sugars can be preserved, and to maximize the sugar content, cutting should be done in the afternoon (source: Western Producer 05/30/14, Berthiaume). Another method is to turn over or rake your hay, however, this should only be done if the moisture content is 40% or greater, otherwise the leaf loss will be be-tween 10 and 25%, which will be a significant sacrifice of quality (source: extension. missouri.edu).

In A Rainy Season The year 2010 saw a painful drought for Peace Country producers; making dry hay was not a concern. However, fast forward through the next couple of years, and since 2011, we have seen a lot more moisture. The weather conditions were in our favor for producing large volumes of forage, however, drying it down and getting it baled up became the new challenge. In such conditions, alternative methods of putting up feed can be attractive, including silage and wrapping bales.

A Few Silaging Considerations The benefit of silaging your forage, especially in a wet year, is that you don’t have to wait for it to dry down, which also translates into less field and harvest losses compared to dry hay. Silage must be put up properly in order to ensure that the ensiling process occurs. First, you must consider what stage to harvest it at, based on the protein and energy levels you hope to have in your feed. Especially with cereal silages like barley, protein content has been quite low in silage around the Peace Country the past few years, so if possible, try to har-vest it a bit earlier, though this

can be tricky if you rely on a custom silaging outfit. For barley silage, research has shown that protein is highest in barley from the boot-to-heademerged-stage, but yields are approximately half of what yield would be at the dough stage. For oats, total digestibility of the entire plant is highest at the milk stage, but pro-tein content will continue to increase until the dough stage, where yields are maximized, so harvesting of oats in be-tween these two stages is ideal (source: Sask Ministry of Ag).

If protein content is a challenge each year in your cereal silage crop, consider putting in peas to help bump up the protein. Corn is also becoming more common across the Peace, and should be harvested for silage when the moisture content of the entire plant is between 60% and 70%, which should be the hard dough stage (source: Sask Ministry of Ag).

The key to making good silage is keeping the oxygen out, so chopping the forage at the proper length, then filling the pit quickly, getting it packed tightly, and covered quickly are very important. The ‘Knowledge Nugget’ section on silage management on the www.foragebeef. ca website cites the importance of covering a pile and making sure it is properly sealed: “Half of the dry matter will be lost in the top three feet if a proper seal is not achieved and maintained. This loss costs two times more than the cost of a cover.” When there is spoiled material in your silage pit, it will decrease animal consumption and performance, and mold and other mycotoxins could be found in the spoiled silage. A great resource for more information is www.foragebeef.ca, maintained by Alberta Agri-culture.

Bale Silage Tips Bale silage, or balage as some refer to it, has advantages in that it helps to reduce field losses and gives us the chance to get a forage crop off the field even if it’s not dried down, both resulting in increased nutritional value of the feed. In comparison to making silage in a pit, bale silage requires less labour and equipment; after the purchase of a wrapper, conventional haying and feeding equipment can be used. In comparison to dry hay, wrapping bales has more cost involved, but the potential gains in nutritional quality and feed quantity, could be worth it; each operation must pencil this out to make the decision. Wrapped bales can also be stored for longer than dry hay, without the waste, especially if they’ve been wrapped sufficiently.

When making bales for bale silage, it’s important to note a few things, including that the moisture content of these bales will be higher than that of dry hay so it is a good idea to make the bales smaller for easier handling.

Bale silage should be put up at 45-55% moisture; since we are making silage, we need adequate moisture for the ensiling process to occur, and if not, we could have issues with mold and yeast growth. If you do wrap bales that are less than 45% moisture, or if the forage is very mature, they won’t go through the ensiling process properly, so it is best to feed these bales out right away and not store them for the next year (source: Bale Silage Agri Facts, AB Ag). Excess moisture is also not good, as you can have leaching as well as losses of protein and energy from an extended fermentation period. If you have hay or greenfeed that you meant to bale up for dry feed, but

it got rained on, it is not a good idea to wrap the bales, as the water soluble carbohydrate levels have decreased, mak-ing the ensiling process not as effective (source: AB Ag, Ag-Info Center).

It is ideal to get the bales wrapped within 5 hours of baling to ensure good quality feed. In a study done at the University of Manitoba comparing differences in feed quality as a result of when the bales were wrapped, found that bales wrapped the next day after baling resulted in a temperature rise, and poor silage protein (Moshtaghi et al, Can. J. Anim. Sci.). Bales can be fed 12-20 days after they’ve been wrapped, giving them enough time to ensile. If the bales are wrapped after the 5 hour timeframe, it will take the bales longer to ensile so it’s best to wait a bit longer than the 20 days.

If wrapped bales are going to be stored for more than one winter, the bales should be wrapped more heavily; an Alberta Ag publication, ‘Bale Silage Agri Facts’ recommends that the wrapping or tub-ing be at a minimum of 4 ml, and if you’re storing into the next feeding season, 8 ml is recommended. If the bales become exposed to air, they will not keep and need to be fed out as soon as possible. It is vital that the plastic is stretched and sealed so that oxygen doesn’t get in; if oxygen gets in, respiration occurs and heat is produced, which can denature and damage the protein in the feed.

Other Methods for Gathering Your Annual Forage Supply If you have other sources of feed besides those mentioned so far, some of the practices will still apply to feed management. For example, for swath grazing, you can time the swathing of your crop to match the nutrients levels required by your cows when you’re planning to have them swath graze. It is then important to get feed tests done on the swath grazing, including testing for nitrates if there was a risk of frost damage. If you purchase feed, getting it tested is very important. Requesting a feed test from the seller can be a good idea, especially if they are asking a premium for good quality hay.

PCBFA is Harvesting Forage Too! PCBFA staff will be busy over the next month harvesting some forage of our own at our forage plots. Feel free to stop by and take a look at our four plots across the Peace Country: High Prairie: located south of town at the airport (head east past the airport, head right at the gate and around the compound. These plots were seeded in 2010.

Fairview: located west of Fairview (head east on Hwy 64A, then north on Range Road 35, plots will be on the right). These plots were also seeded in 2010.

Spirit River: located on Hwy 64 west of the Weaver Bros. auction site, right beside the highway. These plots were seeded in 2013, so this will be the first year that they are harvested.

Valleyview: coming soon! We will be seeding a plot of different forage varieties and mixes at a sight near the Ag Society buildings. Watch for updates!

What’s For Dinner?

Shortage of funds and financial support jeopardizes local seniors / youth bus service After recent cutbacks and shortages in funding, local non-profit organization Step Up and Ride is in desperate need for community support. Software Emporium Inc. (SEI) is pleased to announce it will be working with the Step Up & Ride program in Dawson Creek, BC to raise funds for this valuable program.

SEI has assisted many other causes locally by rebuilding and refurbishing older computers and then selling them with the funds going to our donations fund.

With the hundreds of potential donors in our community, SEI will pick a group that is in need and has chosen to assist Step Up & Ride over the next 3-4 weeks. The goal is to raise up to $2000 for this great cause.

“There is a definite need to help those seniors and less fortunate and giving back to Step Up & Ride is a great way for our local business to assist. The transportation around the community is critical and with the variety of weather we get year round, it is important this program stays afloat” said Paul Davey, Sales Manager / Co-Owner of Software Emporium Inc. In addition to the efforts of SEI in selling refurbished computers, they will also collect donations at their store counter and then donate these funds to Step Up & Ride. It is also hoped that other businesses will participate in helping raise money for the many riders of this awesome bus service.

“More and more we are seeing great programs like Step Up & Ride deal with financial shortfalls. Our computer refurbishment / donation program provides funds that we can redirect back into the community. Recently we made a large donation to The Ark Christian Centre and are proud to support all age groups. ” said Dan Brisbin, Bookkeeper / General Manager of Software Emporium Inc. Software Emporium Inc. is one of the largest computer stores in Northeast British Columbia and supports the communities in the growing local economy. For more information visit www.softwareemporium.ca or our Facebook page at www. facebook.com/SoftwareEmporium . Future announcements of donations and program success will be shared online and in-store!

Canadian Beef Breeds Council (June 20, 2014) Toronto, ON The Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame selected three accomplished ambassadors for Canadian agriculture to join its prestigous ranks in 2014. The late Walter Browarny, Charles Froebe and Lorne Hepworth will be formally inducted into the national Hall of Fame at a ceremony on Sunday, November 9, 2014 at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto, Ontario.

“Canadian agriculture thrives on a diverse group of individuals constantly pushing boundaries to drive our industry further”, says President Judy Shaw, Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame Association. “This year’s inductees highlight the importance of taking an innovative approach - whether you are a farmer or a photographer - to make a lasting difference to our industry and our nation.”

The late Walter Browarny changed the face of livestock photography with his clean, simple approach to capturing Canada’s beef breeds. His legacy as Canada’s cameraman of livestock lives on in the bank of more than 2 million images he created - setting the standard for his brand of authentic livestock photograhy that naturally features the best attributes of his subjects. Walter was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta and was nominated by the Canadian Beef Breeds Council.

Charles Froebe championed the creation of Canada’s national canola farmer association, improving marketing options and cash flow for farmers. A farmer, early adopter and innovator, Charles and his brother were some of the first farmers to grow canola in Canada. He served as the first general manager of the Canadian Canola Growers Association and led important advances to Canada’s canola industry at provincial and national levels. Charles Froebe lives in Carman, Manitoba and was nominated by the Canadian Canola Growers Association.

Lorne Hepworth began his life-long career in Canadian agriculture as a veterinarian in rural Saskatchewan, moving into provincial politics and leaving his biggest legacy to Canada’s plant science industry. A passionate advocate, Lorne championed advances in science and technology to help build a progressive Canadian agriculture and food industry. From CropLife Canada to GrowCanada, Lorne’s prmotion of plant sciences has helped Canada remain internationally competitive. Lorne Hepworth lives in London, Ontario and was nominated by CropLife Canada.

The Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame Association (CAHFA) honours and celebrates Canadians for outstanding contributions to the agriculture and food industry. Portraits are on display in the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame Gallery located at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. The CAHFA also publicizes the importance of inductee achivements to Canada.

The Association was organized in 1960 and is administered by 12 volunteer Board of Directors located across Canda. www.cahfa.com For more information, contact: Judy Shaw President, CAHFA Tel: 902.675.4768 president@cahfa.com

Peace Country Beef & Forage Association Pasture Clinic On Monday, July 7th the Peace Country Beef & Forage Association (PCBFA) and the North Peace Applied Research Association (NPARA) held a Pasture Clinic in the Warrensville area. The clinic was led by Jim Gerrish, a man with over 22 years of beef-forage systems research and outreach experience plus 22 years of commercial and livestock production experience gained on his family farm.

We had 42 people in attendance, and it was a very successful event. We had producers from all across the Peace, from High Prairie over to Cecil Lake and Pouce Coupe in the BC Peace. We had a classroom session in the morning, where Jim spoke on the basics for grazing management, including calculating how much grass you have and how long you can leave your animals in a particular pasture. Jim discussed grazing strategies for early spring, and how management early in the year can affect many factors later in the year.

Jim spoke about managing grass in a drought, which was of particular importance to many Peace Country producers, with the dry weather we’ve been having. Rest or recovery period was discussed at length, and we learned how to determine stocking densities and how long to leave cattle in a pasture or paddock. Jim mentioned how many cattlemen under-stock their pastures, because they manage their pastures based on space and animal numbers, not on time. Overgrazing is a factor of time, and the plants need enough time to recover before they are grazed again.

Out in the field, we had the opportunity to mimic a grazing animal, as Jim had us down on our hands and knees ‘grazing,’ to demonstrate the effects of over-grazing and how cattle will get less grass in a mouthful grazing in the same area a few days after the first mouthful. We had a few good laughs during this process and it was great to truly have a ‘hands on’ workshop.

Colt Starting

Accept the human, accept the saddle PART 3 It’s July now and the colts are looking good and you are getting the itch to ride...

If you have been along for the journey, we are into the third article on the subject of starting the young horse. In the first one we built the horses confidence and acceptance to various tools or stimulus and have the horse beginning to accept us on the ground. We then started to ask the horse to move its feet for us and learn to begin accepting us as the leader in our little partnership of two. Up until now, things were

done all on the ground preparing for someday getting on the horse. Someday is getting real close. From the moment you have the young horse in the corral, to when you have done the ground work, saddled, mounted and had a little ride it can generally happen in about an hour to two hours depending on the horse and what the person knows. A lot can go wrong in that hour or two but probably has went pretty well if you have gotten all the ground work started and are in the

saddle on the horse.

The information I have shared in the past two articles can be done repeatedly but each session we need to be looking for improvement and slowly adding to the list so your horse can stay fresh and interested. If you ask someone what is two plus two or the equivalent to your horse everyday, it will get boring very soon.

It’s July now and the colts are looking good and you are getting the itch to ride and the best person to start a young horse is a professional. If I have engine problems I hire a mechanic, I could tinker away at it and I know a little bit about mechanics but I would likely make some mistakes, it will for sure take longer. With a piece of machinery if you make a mistake you can buy a new part and start again. It is not quite the same with a living, breathing, thinking animal. When you fix your car it is unlikely that we would get injured, but when you start a colt there is a very real possibility of it. If we miss, or don’t quite read the horse correctly, or have everything in place, they might have a little buck, runaway, or rear over backwards and numerous other things that can go wrong. If the rider avoids injury, the horse can still end up with unnecessary brace, fears and complications, which isn’t any good either.

Now I’m not trying to scare anyone, just stating what should be obvious but does seem to escape some folks. Some of you know exactly what I’m talking about and have either seen it or felt it, a runaway, bucked off or rear over. Hopefully only seen it. Even if you manage to do a very good job and haven’t missed anything, they still can show their lack of interest in having a rider or saddle.

Having said that the next step is to start preparing the horse for us getting off the ground and on their backs, which means more acceptance of the human.

You can do some of this by bringing the horse along side the fence where you are sitting and rub on the horse from both sides. I also and more often jump up from the ground. At first only jumping along side then rubbing, next jumping partially on and sliding off to finally laying across and rubbing the horse. When the horse is calm and accepting and looks like he can handle it, you can jump up lay full length down the

horse with your feet hanging over the hindquarters.

It’s best to do from both sides and be able to go up one side and right over to the other. Finally you could sit on your colt for a moment and then get off and do it again.

Once you have accomplished this small feat of athleticism and cardio workout it is time to start showing the horse the saddle pad and saddle. Anytime I take a break or give the horse a moment to think about what is going on I try and have them rest by the saddle. Allow the horse time to smell your saddle and pad before it is time to saddle. Then start by putting the pad on and off the horse. Don’t sneak the pad on and off, and you should take it on and off many times.

Next comes the saddle, and hopefully you are very good at swinging a saddle into place before you try and do this with a young horse and their first saddling.

Seems to be the Season….for Parvo Submitted by Dr. Jenny Soucy Many puppies have been born throughout the spring, and now with summer in full swing, they are absolutely bursting with energy. Seemingly nothing will slow them down.

But sometimes there are diseases that catch them. One that we have been seeing lately is parvovirus. You’ve probably heard about it. Dogs become listless and depressed, sometimes with severe vomiting and diarrhea. Fortunately though, with aggressive treatment begun before it is too late, most dogs recover.

Parvo (canine parvovirus infection) is a relatively new disease, having appeared just about four decades ago now. The virus is spread between members of the Canidae family (dogs, wolves, coyotes) through a fecal-oral route. And unfortunately, since the virus is quite strong and can survive in the environment for long periods of time (months), it is difficult to avoid contact with it. Feces or areas and objects that have residues of feces from infectious animals are sources

of disease spread. To top it off, regular disinfectants are ineffective in killing the virus. Household bleach will do the trick though.

Dogs of any age can become infected; however, puppies less than 16 weeks are most often and most severely affected. They can begin to show signs anywhere from 4-14 days post exposure. It is important that if you suspect your dog of having contracted parvo, that you call your veterinarian immediately.

Untreated, 50% of puppies can die from this infection. The virus causes loss of the intestinal lining and destruction of white blood cells. Therefore, affected canids lose their ability to stay hydrated and to maintain their electrolytes through their damaged intestines, and gut bacteria can also begin to cross into the circulation. The white blood cells would usually kick into gear to fight off these bacteria, but since they are being destroyed, the bacteria have a wide open playing field.

When a dog is diagnosed with parvo, hospitalization with intravenous fluids is often necessary.

Throughout this time, food and water are restricted.

In severe cases plasma, blood transfusions, antibiotics, and antispasmodics may be given. If dogs with parvo have stabilized, it is possible to split management between veterinary hospitalization and homecare.

Parvo is both easily diagnosed and prevented with help from your veterinarian.

There is an accurate and quick SNAP test available to diagnose parvo on the spot. And as far as prevention, there are very effective vaccines and vaccination protocols available. General recommendations are for puppies to receive a vaccine series (at 8, 12, and 16 weeks of age) followed by regular boosters. Boosters can be administered annually or every three years depending on individual risk. For example, dogs that are kenneled often, pregnant dogs, or dogs with significant exposure to other high-risk dogs would be considered for more intense vaccination regimens.

People do not contract parvo from infected dogs. Also, do not worry about transmission to other non-canine pets. There are some very closely related diseases to parvo that present in other species, but there is not currently evidence for direct spread of the canine parvovirus to these species.

If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this or related diseases, please do not hesitate to contact your veterinarian. www.dcvet.ca

gets on the horses side or under their belly and they get running around the pen it takes countless hours to repair the fear and worry from the mistake.

Sometimes it can’t be repaired because they can get so scared that they run through fences and could break bones.

I personally never tie a young horse up to saddle. I want them to be able to stand quietly without tying them to anything. If I have to tie him then I probably shouldn’t be trying to saddle him. So before cinching allow the horse time to feel the cinch without running the latigo through the cinch.

Pull the cinch up against his girth with your hand and let it loose, then on and off again getting him used to the feel.

Once you’ve got him ready, tighten the cinch and it is time to move the horse. Sometimes this is when the feet get in the air and they try and get rid of the saddle. Don’t turn your back and walk off expecting them to lead quietly along. If they start to buck just try and keep them out of more trouble and allow them to find out they are fine and it is a new feel that they will have to get used to. If they don’t run off or buck keep an eye on them and ask them to circle you which you have taught them earlier to see if you can get them moving freely with the saddle. This all is a very critical time and sometimes you move them a step and that’s all they can handle without bucking and you work up from there. Give them a moment and ask for another step or two. Other times the first step happens and they drop their heads and do their best to buck the saddle off.

Once they are settled with the feel of the saddle I find it very important to establish clear forward movement, walk, trot, and canter from the ground using techniques that you can use in the saddle when you’re mounted. Too much around desensitizing takes the forward out of the horse, not enough desensitizing and you have a horse too scared to accept your guidance. Asking your horse to move and then turning them with the lead line too soon or often will also take the forward out of your horse. It is also very important while on the ground doing the ground exercises to be sure that your horse softly and willingly gives to halter and lead. Being able to ask for your horses head and neck to bend from the saddle will have much to do with your ground work and the look, feel and success of your first ride.

Once they seem to be moving freely at the walk,

then the trot with the saddle, I like to walk along side pushing then pulling on the horn to let them get used to the feel of the saddle and cinch squeezing them.

Then walk along and move the stirrups on both sides.

If you can do this all at the trot that would even be better. All this is to help build the horses confidence and acceptance of the new feel, sounds and movement of the saddle. Running along side, back behind the horn also lets the horse see you back closer to where you will be when you are riding. Again all these suggestions are only as good as the skills of the person doing it. If done well it can really help prepare the horse for the next step, which will be mounting.

Is it necessary to do all this preparation? I didn’t used to know all this ground work and I would just get on as soon as the saddle was on. I got pretty good at riding bucking horses because I was getting lots of practice. Now I don’t ride bucking horses very well because most don’t buck. Good luck and see you next month.

Protein requirements influenced by calf size AGRI-NEWS JULY 14, 2014

JULY 4 IN HISTORY

1911

With less feed consumed, growth rate is reduced growth rate and the ability of the animal to “stretch” and “frame out” properly is compromised. Young calves that are not receiving adequate amounts of protein have the physical appearance of having a full rumen most of the time and a shorter than expected height and length.

“Creep feeding can increase calf growth rates on pasture when grass quality is lower than required in the later part of the grazing season,” says Yaremcio.

“A good creep ration should contain 16 per cent protein for smaller calves. A mix of 2/3 barley or oats and 1/3 peas is a good combination. Calves that weigh less than 700 pounds chew more than cows or larger animals and the grain does not need to be processed.

Peas need to be split into two pieces to have efficient digestion.”

Protein is essential for a calf’s skeletal and muscle development, and the amount of protein needed is a reflection of the animal’s size.

“A smaller calf has a higher protein requirement on a pound for pound basis than a larger calf,” says Barry Yaremcio, beef and forage specialist, Alberta Ag-Info Centre, Stettler. “A rough rule of thumb is that a 1000 pound growing animal requires a 10 per cent protein ration on a dry matter basis (including grain, supplement, forage and milk). For every 100 pound reduction in calf size, the protein requirement increases by one per cent. Thus, a 500 pound calf requires a 15 per cent protein ration.”

If the proper amount of protein is not provided, the animal is not able to digest the fiber component of the feed efficiently and this reduces daily feed intake.

Thin cow take longer to start cycling and have conception rates that are 20 to 30 per cent lower than cows in good condition. “Winter feeding management – be it dormant forage grazing, swath or bale grazing or traditional methods – all impact the ability of the cow to conceive a calf early in the breeding season,” adds Yaremcio.

“There is roughly a $0.50 per head per day cost advantage when feeding a pregnant cow in late pregnancy compared to a cow in early lactation,” says Barry Yaremcio, beef and forage specialist, Alberta Ag-Info Centre, Stettler. “Winter feed costs contribute 45 per cent of the total annual cost of raising a calf.

Winter feed costs contribute 70 per cent of the cost of feeding a cow for a year. Changes to management practices to increase the number of days animals are not fed stored forage will dramatically reduce costs.”

Milk production in a beef cow peaks approximately eight weeks after calving. Maximum feed intake by beef cows occurs 12 weeks after calving. For the first three months of lactation, energy and protein intake are critical to allow the cow to obtain the highest possible milk production.

The body condition of the cow impacts the ability of the cow to produce milk. A cow is in good condition is able to mobilize fat to meet a short term energy deficiency,” says Yaremcio. “One pound of mobilized fat has enough energy to produce seven pounds of

Standing hay pricing AGRI-NEWS JULY 14, 2014

“The month of July is usually the most difficult time of year to determine hay prices,” says Ted Nibourg, farm business management specialist, Ag-Info Centre, Stettler. “Yields and quality are uncertain and demand is an unknown factor. July of 2014 is no exception.”

Last summer’s hay production was variable

in terms of quality, says Nibourg. “Two long hard winters back to back reduced much of the hay carry over in the province. There were numerous reports of strong hay prices earlier this spring. These were typically paid by producers who had run out of feed and pastures were not growing. As well, some cattle were turned out to pasture earlier than normal. This may increase the demand as these producers could find themselves starting to feed earlier than anticipated.”

All the production and price variables make it difficult to determine the value of standing hay during the haying season.

“Hay prices usually do not settle until about the end of October,” explains Nibourg. “At that time, everyone has a good idea of forage production which includes hay, green feed and silage as well the amount of salvaged cereal crops that have gone into the mix.

30+ Purebred Simmental ByFor late Sale: October, one can reasonably estimateHeifer the type Calves, all Polled, Solid Red or of winter to expect which has a bearing onBlack. feed disappearance. Also, theShort fall calf onmarket Feed.will give a good indication of whether calves will be back grounded or sent directly to feedlots. Back grounding usually increases the demand for hay.”

The value of a standing hay crop is based on the estimated market value of hay in the bale less cutting and baling costs plus an allowance for weather risk.

“The weather risk allowance would be at least 10 per cent (e.g. for grass hay) and as high as 30 per cent (e.g. for alfalfa) of the expected market value,” says Nibourg. “Without it, a badly weather damaged crop could cost the producer the same amount as if they had purchased ready-made, top quality bales from someone else.”

rates being charged for most custom haying operations. Producers can also use the on-line Machinery Cost Calculator on Ropin’ the Web to determine what these costs will be for their operation.

“Many Alberta producers include the asking prices in their hay for sale listings on our Alberta Hay and Pasture Directory” says Nibourg. “As well, Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC) publishes historical forage price data for all regions of the province.”

A typical scenario for two parties entering into a standing hay agreement is to arrive at a best guess for both price and yield and from that, estimate the value of the standing hay crop. The tenant would then pay one half of that value at haying time and then make a final payment, either more or less, in the fall.

“A crop share is another simple but effective rental arrangement for a forage crop,” says Nibourg.

“The tenant harvests the crop and gives the landlord their share of the crop in bales. The landlord then has a product that is ready for sale or for their own use.

With this year’s higher valued hay crop compared to the past few years the landlord’s crop share for a hay field can vary from 40 to 60 per cent. It is important that the estimated market value, yield potential and harvest costs for the crop are considered to ensure that the arrangement is fair for both parties. Again, the final settlement is determined in late October when prices are more firmly established.”

The Northern Horizon, July 18, 2014

PRESS RELEASE Winnipeg, Manitoba – July 10, 2014 Earlier today Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz announced a Stay of Default for the 2013-14 Advance Payments Program (APP) affecting grain farmers in Western Canada. The Stay extends the current repayment deadline of September 30, 2014 to March 31, 2015 for cash advances issued by the Canadian Canola Growers Association (CCGA).

“Many farmers have faced challenges selling their 2013 crops and for these farmers meeting a September 30th repayment deadline is almost impossible,” says Brett Halstead, President of CCGA. “This deadline extension is greatly appreciated by farmers and will lessen the financial worries that many are facing with grain still being held in their bins waiting for a marketing opportunity to open up and many facing excess moisture problems at the same time.”

The Stay of Default announcement includes several other important conditions, including: 1. Farmers will be allowed to make a cash repayment on their 2013-14 ad-

vance without facing a payment without proof of sale penalty; 2. The interest-free component of the advance will be maintained throughout the six month extension; and 3. The Stay will apply equally to all crops under CCGA’s administration.

While the conditions of the Stay of Default come into effect immediately, all other existing rules and guidelines associated with the 2013-14 APP continue to apply. CCGA reminds farmers that repayments on existing advances must be made every time a farmer sells grain that is associated with their advance.

Farmers who have questions about their 2013-14 cash advance or the Stay of Default are encouraged to contact CCGA at 1-866-745-2256 ext. 7109 or email balance@ccga.ca Contact: Rick White, CEO Phone: 204.789.8810 CCGA represents more than 43,000 canola farmers on national and international issues, policies and programs that impact farm profitability.

New Holland’s highly efficient ECOBlue technology delivers impressive fuel savings, reducing running costs and extending further the already extensive autonomy given by the ample fuel tank - 340 gallons in the CR8.90, CR9.90, CR9.90 Elevation and CR10.90 Elevation models. The extralong 34-foot folding unloading auger on the larger models is a match for the widest heads.

The grain tank’s high capacity - ranging from 315 bushels in the CR6.90 and CR7.90 to 410 bushels in the CR8.90, CR9.90, CR9.90 Elevation and CR10.90 Elevation - combined with the lightning fast unloading speed of up to 4.0 bushels/second and the extensive autonomy mean that no second is wasted during the day: productivity soars by up to15% and does not waver until the job is done.

Harvest Suite™ Ultra cab: designed for ultimate harvesting comfort

work seamlessly in tough crop conditions with the Twin Pitch rotors, which can raise productivity by up to 10% in damp conditions. Switching between small grain/corn configurations to harvest rice is easy. The redesigned adjustable rotor vanes require less power in high-volume crops and consistently deliver high capacity.

The SmartTrax™ rubber tracks, optional on all models, ensure excellent traction and low soil compaction while providing a silky smooth ride.

Massive power, extensive autonomy, vast grain tank: productivity reaches new heights, increasing by up to 15% The CR Series combines offer more horsepower than ever: from 401 hp of the CR6.90 to the massive 653 hp of the flagship CR10.90 Elevation.

The entire series features the Tier 4B ECOBlue™ Hi-eSCR technology*.

The flagship CR10.90 Elevation is equipped with the Diesel Of The Year® 2014 Cursor 16 engine which features

th all-new CR Combine Harvester series Designed in consultation with customers, the new Harvest Suite Ultra cab defines harvesting comfort. The ample, 131 cu. ft. cab is larger than its predecessor, and the interior layout has been entirely redesigned to further improve ergonomics and comfort. The new force-based CommandGrip™ multifunction handle is intuitive to use and makes it easy to fine tune harvesting speed to optimize performance. The new harvesting console is designed to become an extension of the operator.

The ultra-wide 10.4-inch IntelliView IV color touchscreen monitor puts all key parameters at the operator’s fingertips and is fixed on rollers so that it can be moved to the most comfortable position. An optional second IntelliView display is available for operators requiring the maximum amount of information.

The new cab also features more glass than previous models. With 68 sq. ft. of glassed area and the floor sloping down into the front windscreen, the operator has excellent visibility all round and a clear view of the header.

For the long harvesting days, there is a choice of three types of seat offering increasing levels of comfort - from the standard wide cloth seat to the heated deluxe leather trimmed seat with air suspension and active ventilation.

When harvesting continues into the night, the lighting package is precision engineered to ensure perfect visibility of the entire header and the field ahead.

An unloading auger light for precision unloading and four rear work lights mean farmers can continue to work long after dark just as efficiently as during the day in order to get the job done right. HID and LED packages are

available.

“New Holland has been committed to equipping our customers with product advancements, new technology and solutions for well over a century,” says

Valen. “The CR combine line is just one of the many new product innovations to be introduced in 2014. Dedicated. Uncompromising. Smart. That’s New Holland.”

The Ideal Machine For Seasonal Cleanup.

• Remove gravel in spring from snow-blown driveways • Dethatch lawn in spring • Clean up aeration plugs • Remove stones up to 1” diameter and gravel from boulevards • Clean up garbage and litter following large public events

HMW • Available in 4 or 5 foot widths • Universal hitch which can be towed behind a tractor or ATV • Powered by a 9HP GX270 Honda motor with a 2-to-1 reduction gear box with clutch • The 4-foot has over 42 cubic feet and the 5-foot has 54 cubic feet of basket capacity

• Ideal for golf course maintenance • Collects lawn clippings, leaves, branches and feathers

Set Up

Cleanup is important on any jobsite, and Turfmaster sweepers will make cleaning more productive – whether you’re removing sand, stone or debris. Use the Turfmaster Sweep-All attachment to sweep material into the hopper – up to 20 times faster than sweeping by hand.

and Ready To Sweep

The Sweep-All attachment clears and collects material for dumping while the electric or hydraulic dump system gives you added power and productivity; attach the power broom to sweep and scrub tough material away automatically. If you want to make cleanup go faster and get a better result, Turfmaster Sweep-All attachments will sweep you off your feet.

38 The Northern Horizon, July 18, 2014

On the open road Quebec: Riding like a local

After my sightseeing tour at La Ferme it was time to head to L’estampilles Auberge just outside of Baie-Saint-Paul.

The inn has a long history that goes back to the 1739’s when a residence was built on the location where the inn now stands. That residence went through many transformations, in the 1940’s it was a general store, in 1970 it became a restaurant, in 1993 it became an Auberge called La Corbiere, and in 1197 a lodge was added to the facility.

In 2012 Claire Lestoquoit and Regis Barthe purchased the property and today it is known as L’estempilles.

If any of you follow Hell’s Kitchen, then you might remember Regis from his time as a competitor.

This master chef is truly one of the highlights of L’estempilles, and I was going to get the chance to taste this man’s fare.

It was wonderful meeting the other guests and although many only spoke French, we seemed to be able to communicate our pleasure with the accommodations and scenery to each other with no problem!

The place was already half filled when I arrived for my 7pm seating.

I went back to my room and changed for dinner, I knew this would be an amazing meal but I had no idea just how amazing.

The dining room is gorgeous and broken into three sections. There was a big birthday party in one section, then the middle section where I was seated and a smaller more intimate room that doubles as the breakfast buffet area.

The service is impeccable, the atmosphere inviting and the food?

I am here to tell you that Regis is an amazing chef.

I ate from the Table d’hote menu – it is a menu that provides a variety, (usually 3), full meal offerings to choose from for a fixed price.

The foie gras was perfection, the steak was so tender a knife was not needed; it literally melted in my mouth! The peppery flavor of the steak was subtle and yet distinctive.

The wine that Regis recommended to go with the steak called Impatience from France is hands down my new favorite red wine!

After my fabulous dinner, I headed to my room and got organized for the day ahead.

When I awoke the next morning it was to the forecasted rain. I got showered and dressed and headed down for breakfast. My breakfast was every bit as delicious as my dinner had been.

I wonder some times how these owner operators put in so much time, early mornings, late nights and yet they offer up amazing customer service experiences and meals.

After my coffee, I headed back in and started packing up, I had places to visit and I was looking forward to seeing the facilities of two of Quebec’s premier cheese makers.

Then I was going to be heading over to Hotel La Ferme!

After thanking my hosts, I headed out in the rain. The gloominess could not dispel my excitement though. I was going to be getting a tour of one of the most bio friendly cheese producing operations in Canada.

My first stop was at Laiterie Charlevoix. Founded in 1948 by the Labbe family, the cheese producer started out distributing all manners of dairy products. Over the years, they have adapted to the market

place as changes to the dairy industry took place and today, with the 4th generation of Labbe’s at the helm, La Laiterie Charlevoix is one of the most environmentally responsible cheese producers anywhere!

Not only are they wonderful stewards of the land, they are also champions of the Canadian Cow. A number of years ago, the Labbe family got out of being a dairy farm and became strictly a producer of products accepting milk from partner producers who agreed to raise and feed their cattle to the Labbe family’s quality standards. Through those relationships they not only prevented the Canadian Cow from falling to extinction, but they support the local dairy farms.

They have hosted contests, which prominently feature the Canadian Cow and have developed some of the best cheese in the world from the milk of the Canadian Cow. As we entered the first building, my guide explained to me that the aroma would be pungent and he wasn’t wrong.

This first building was the home of the whey treatment facility.

After the tour of the Methanization house, which was as smelly as promised, we headed to see the cheese rooms and the processes for the various products were ex-

P A R T

6

plained to me. We got to see some the Canadian Cow statues that were a result of the contests held by the region – they are so fun!

Then we toured the museum upstairs.

The history that is on display here is utterly amazing. The evolution of the dairy industry is laid out before a person!

After the tour of the museum we went to the Charles Simard house where you can take in some of the various cheese, have a meal of just rest at one of the picnic tables outside.

I was treated to a plate of samples. I don’t know which cheese is my favorite, I adored le 1608 and L’Hercule de Charlevoix, but I also extremely enjoyed the Vieux Charlevoix.

We headed back to the main gift store, where I purchased some cheese to have in my room later in the evening and soon I was off to the next cheese producer for what would be a totally different experience.

With the rain driving down hard, off I went.

Just a few kilometers up the road is Maison Maurice Dufour, and Le Famille Migneron.

And that’s where we will start next week, until then ride safe!

Forage Quality and the Growing Season notes Yaremcio. “Hard seeded varieties such as alfalfa and other legumes pass through the digestive system of the cow and can germinate at a later date. For the grasses, if seeds are knocked out of the heads and are worked into the ground by hoof action, new plants can emerge. In bare areas, knifing in new seed or broadcasting seed are good options to get new

plants to establish.”

Another alternative to increase the number of alfalfa or clover plants in an older forage stand is to add 1.5 cups of seed into a bag of loose salt. “When the cows eat the salt, they will spread seed where ever they manure,” says Yaremcio. “It’s an inexpensive method to increase legumes in an older stand.”

Simply more tractor, start to finish.

Hesston Series from Massey Ferguson Rakes Massey Ferguson® Hesston Series hay rakes are built to follow the contours. Every rake wheel on our 3900 Series and 5000 Series models, for example, is spring-loaded and mounted on its own pivoting arm so it floats independently. That means all the wheels are on the ground at the same time — not bouncing — allowing them to pick up the hay others leave behind. We even equip most models with front pivoting gauge wheels to keep the rake wheels from gouging in rolling ground. Ask your Massey Ferguson dealer for more details or visit www.masseyferguson.com today.
