“The Kid’s Choice Total colostrum replacer is a great product !

It was the only colostrum replacer we used during our last

kidding season !

newborn goat kids, fed within hours after birth.”

Jerry & Ada Pfeiffer - Orlando, OK

“ We have used Kid’s Choice Total colostrum replacer over the past two seasons with tremendous success by providing them additionalimmunity and energy for our newborn kids. Last year, we found that Kid’s Choice Total provided us a significant impact of newborn health and survival with our late spring crop.

We would have never saved “Down In Flames” without multiple doses of Kid’s Choice Total with these young does last spring. Kid’s Choice Total is now part of every newborn kid protocol in the barn within hours after birth” !

Consider the location and herd health status of all ranches on which the cattle have previously resided. What was the previous vaccination history of the cattle prior to entering your facility? How long will the cattle stay at your facility and what will be their destination? Is there over-the-fence contact with other herds? What is the stocking density at your facility? Co-mingling of animals from different sources may result in stress, decreased immunity, and increased exposure to disease agents. Higher stocking densities also affect contagious disease susceptibility and transmission. Feedlots and confinement operations will have very different vaccination protocols when compared to a low-density cow-calf operation.

3. What is the probability of the specific disease occurring on your facility?

• Increasedmovementofpeople(especiallythosefromotherlivestock facilities) and animals increases the risk of disease introduction.

• Animalsreturningfromexhibitionsandfairsmayposeariskof disease introduction.

• Certaingeographicareashavecertaindiseaseproblems.Redwater, anaplasmosis, and anthrax are a few examples. Local veterinarians and extension agents know this information.

Real-life Producer Practices

TheNationalAnimalHealthMonitoringSystemfundedbytheUnited States Department of Agriculture analyzed beef cattle vaccination practices in 24 states that contain 80% of US beef cattle operations. Although 70% of operations vaccinated cattle, the percentage rose as herd size increased, with over 92% of herds over 200 head having vaccination protocols. For calves aged 22 days to weaning the most common products used were multi-agent clostridial vaccine, and vaccines against IBR, and BVD, whereas, the most commonly used vaccines for cows were Leptospira, BVD and IBR. Interestingly, only 30% of operations vaccinated bulls. The government study concluded that:

“While vaccination can be considered costly to an operation, it can also be an effective risk-management tool. Often, when a new disease is introduced into a naïve unvaccinated herd, it can have devastating effects on pregnancy, calving, and weaning weights.”

Conclusion

Tailoring a cost-effective vaccination protocol for your cattle is like buying an insurance policy against disease, and can improve animal health, welfare and productivity. Once designed, remem-ber to:

• carefullyreadthelabelsoftheproductsyouchoose,

• useproperhandling(keepoutofsunlightandheat)andinjection techniques,

• givethevaccinesasrecommendedbythemanufacturer(many require two doses to be effective), and

• identifyproductsthatcancauseabortionifusedduringpreg-nancy and be extra-careful with their use.

Vaccination protocols are one aspect of an overall herd health pro-gram that addresses nutrition and supplements, external and in-ternal parasite control, range management, and facility hygiene.

Once upon a time . . . . . . . . The need for story time!

Everything you have ever done prepares you for all that you can do or be!

It seems that everywhere we turn as of late the focus is on “telling our story” to get our point across. The importance of telling the agriculture story has never been needed more. I have to be quite honest that when I heard about the impor-tance of “telling our story” I thought it was quite fun and a novel idea. It was something that was the “in thing” for agriculture advocates to speak or write about. However as time goes along I become ever more entrenched in agriculture conversations, I have come to realize that “telling our story” is anecessity.Itissomethingwemust,well,justdo!Noexcep-tions.

I have heard people say, but I can’t tell my story, I don’t know how, I don’t have much to say, you don’t want to hear from me. My answer is always the same and it is the answer given to me by my dear friend and mentor, Trent Loos, when I said theexactsamethingtohim.“Youareanexpertinyourownexperiences”, you have lived agriculture your entire life, now all you need to do is get out there and share it.

I believe that young people are probably best positioned to “share our story”, better than many of the rest of us. As you care for your show projects and attend fairs, jackpots and rep-resent yourself or club/chapter at community events you will be given the opportunity to express your thoughts. I can bet at least a few of you have encountered an inquisitive someone

come up to you during your county fair and ask you – “How can you raise this animal for most of its life and then know that in the end you will have to sell it at an auction, knowing the ending outcome, that is cruel, don’t you feel bad?” Because you have had life experiences perhaps either living on a ranch or going through the proper training for show projects through the 4-H or FFA program you are equipped to answer ques-tionsthatmightarise.REMEMBER:Youhavelivedthisyouareanexpertinyourexperiences;YOUaretellingyourstory.Youhavetheabilitytoeducateandgettheconversationgoingwith those that approach you - yes you can make a difference. Neverturndowntheopportunitytotalkaboutyourprojector about our world of agriculture. Many times those that are asking really are seeking out an answer. They have only heard about agriculture through what they read in newspapers, magazines , on the internet or on the news but now you have the opportunity to set them straight and give real life informa-tion.Theynowwillputafacewithanimalagriculture–YOU. How about starting the conversation before it has a chance toevengetstarted.WhataboutdoingaYoutubevideoofyourproject or maybe even a clip and show it at the end of your stall space? Why not dedicate a portion of your stall space to agriculture story time, pick a topic and run with it. Make this a place where guests of the fair can not only see your projects they can learn something through photos, storyboards or get really high tech and set up a laptop with continuous pictures or video stream. Accumulate literature from commodity orga-nizations to help you, use them as giveaways. Just thoughts on how you can enhance your project space while sharing your thoughts.NeedmoreideasjustaskIlovethisstuff!

There are so many words that have become popular, “your story” and “advocacy” are just a couple of those buzz words that seem to be the norm now in agriculture circles. I would suggest making these words your own. For me I like to think of my ag story as my personal ag journey. There is a begin-ning and an end to a story and my thought is that I am on a constant journey rather than telling a story and having an ending. And what about advocacy - that is a big buzz word. I like to think of advocacy or AGvocacy as many refer to it as a conversation. For advocacy is championing a cause or fighting for an issue. I hate to use the word fighting especially when I am trying to convey a positive ag message. A conversation with the education component of what you do, what you know, what is inside of you. Create your own words and terms and make them your own.

Youarenevertooyoungtobeanexpertinyourownexperienc-es.Youhavelivedthemuptothispointandyoucannotaskforanythingmorethanthat.Nowgetoutthere,shareyourthoughts, be proud of what you are doing and proud of being a part of an amazing agricultural family.

Remember all the things you are experiencing will prepare you for who you become!

The Crater FFA team will also participate in a European Agriculture tour and do a “home stay” with an agriculture family in Belgium.

Upon returning home, the team will share their experiences with the local community, FFA students and financial supporters. As you can imagine, a trip of this kind comes at a price. The Crater FFA team has spent countless hours to fundraise the necessary amount to travel and compete in this event. Although they have been success-ful locally, the team hopes that as they represent the U.S. in Scot-land, they might also gain state and national support.

All monetary donations are tax deductible. Tax ID# 93-6000508. If you have any questions, please contact the Crater FFA Team Live-stock Judging coach, Jesse Warntjes at 541-494-6351 or by email at [email protected].

California State University, Chico College of Agricul-ture was well represented by the livestock judging teamattheArizonaNa-tional Livestock Show and theNationalWesternStockShow. The team placed second high team overall attheArizonaNationalLivestock Show and third high team overall at the NationalWesternStockShow.

The CSU, Chico livestock judging team consists of Samantha Aragon, Jordan Baumgartner, Haydn Clement, John Gladman, Amanda Wolf, Eli Worden and coach Clay Carlson.

TheArizonaNationalLivestockShowcollegiatelivestockjudgingcontest was held Dec. 31 in Phoenix, Ariz. Samantha Aragon placed fifth overall, Jordan Baumgartner placed 10th overall and third in oral reasons and John Gladman placed second in oral reasons. This was enough to boost them to second high team overall.

TheNationalWesternStockShowcollegiatelivestockjudgingcontest was held Jan. 14–15 in Denver, Colo. The CSU, Chico judging team placed third overall in a field of 28 senior college teams that competed.

AsindividualsattheNationalWesternStockshow,AmandaWolfplaced ninth high individual and sixth in cattle, John Gladman

placed 12th high individual and fifth in swine, Samantha Aragon placed fourth in sheep and goats and 52nd high individual, Jordan Baumgartner placed 18th high individual, and Haydn Clement placed 29th high individual overall. A total of 138 contestants competed.

In a livestock judging competition the students evaluate cattle, sheep and goats, and swine. They must evaluate 12 classes of four animals each, which they have to rank first through fourth. After the evalu-ation process, the students compile a set of oral reasons explaining why they placed the animals in the order they chose. Students must be proficient in their livestock evaluation and communication skills.

“We have worked hard all season, so it is very rewarding for our team to do well against some of the top teams in the nation,” said John Gladman.

The CSU, Chico judging team has three competitions scheduled this spring.TheywillbetravelingtotheNebraskaCattlemen’sClassicFeb.19inKearney,Neb.,theHoustonLivestockShowandRodeoMar.15.inHouston,TexasandtheNorthAmericanCollegeandTeachersofAmerica(NACTA)judgingconferenceApr.16inModesto,Calif.

remembering ron GrantOn March 19th of 2011, friends and loved ones of Ronnie Grant, withthehelpoftheKingCityYoungFarmersFoundation,willbehosting a fundraiser to benefit the Grant family.

Ron Grant was a proud man who always placed family and friends as his highest priority. He grew up in the Salinas Valley and later settled in Lockwood with his wife Renee and two children, Robert and Lauren. Ron took great pleasure in helping friends and neigh-bors at whatever they needed, working on tractors and equipment, cutting hay, or just being a good friend. The whole family was active in 4-H and local fairs and Lauren was also a member of the California Junior Livestock Association (CJLA) and served on its’ Junior Board of Directors as a steer division representative.

Ron passed away on January 22 after a 5 month battle with pancreatic cancer. Due to the extremely expensive treatments Ron underwent, and the loss of work, the family was left with a hugeburdenofmedicalexpenses.TheKingCityYoungFarmerFoundation is hosting a fundraiser on March 19th, 2011, to help out the Grant family. The benefit dinner will be held at the King City Fairgrounds.

We are constantly enhancing our program with Top Genetics.Hamps, Yorks, Durocs & X-Breds • Show Pigs • Seedstock

by rachelle baileyThe smell of shavings and showpigs is back in full force as we approach the winter jackpots and spring shows here in California. Most exhibitors have already spent numerous hours preparing their livestock for the season. Showpigs have been purchased, feed rations selected; the showpig's pen is set up, an exercise program started. But what about preparing, and shall I say packing, for the showpig before it leaves for a show?

There will be numerous exhibitors and their families who will spend the next few months on the road every weekend. As I think about myself when I travel, I realize that I always take way too much “stuff” with me that I don’t need. But there is always the important and necessary equipment that is need-ed. I would recommend going through a checklist to ensure that that animal will have all the proper necessities when it’s on the road headed to a show.

Depending on the time of year and location of the show, it’s very important to pack the proper equipment to keep the ani-mal comfortable. I would ask prior to the show and find out if the barns are inside, outside, heated, etc. During the warmer season I would of course make sure the ventilation into the barn is proper. Keeping the animal comfortable at the show is very important. During the winter months I would suggest bringing heat lamps and some type of tarp or cover to block any unnecessary wind that may come through the barn. I would also suggest during the warmer months bringing a fan, or even a misting system to keep that animal comfortable. I would also suggest taking the proper bedding with you to the show, as some provide bedding and others do not.

During travel keeping the showpig hydrated is very impor-tant. Electrolytes should be started on the animal prior to the

show and continued during the show. I would make sure to always pack some with your animal. A proper watering device is important as well. Most will bring an automatic waterer that can be filled up so the animal will always has cool, fresh water available. Sometimes it’s necessary to bring water with you that the animal has already been drinking at home.

Your pig has been used to eating out of a certain feeding system at home. I think it’s very important to use a similar system when the pig is travelling. Make sure whatever you use is appropriate for the size of the animal. I would suggest having a few different sizes of clip-on feeders. These feeders are durable and lightweight and are available in numerous sizes.

Packing enough feed for the weekend is important. Most exhibitors know how much feed their animal is consuming in a day. So depending on the number of animals that are travel-ling, I would pack a little extra to be on the safe side. Make sure to keep the animal on the feed that you’re using at home. Switching the animal at the show can in some cases cause a change in that animal in which they may go off feed.

Bring the proper showstick or show utensil with you which is being used at home. Changing the show utensil at the last minute is probably not a good idea, as the animal may not be used to it. I would keep a few sorting panels in the trailer as well. When these animals are younger they can be harder to control so I would have a few just in case.

Bring a show box to the event. There are many lightweight show boxes out there. The show box will store all of the smaller equipment that is used at the event. Some of these items include: shampoo, conditioner, show sprays, show foams, brushes, water sprayer, wire cutters, wire, zip ties, rags, buck-ets etc.

Depending on the show it may be a good idea to bring a few extra panel dividers. In some cases pen availability may not be what you are given and you may have to divide a pen to separate the pigs.

Show equipment should be cleaned and disinfected after each and every show, especially if you have some type of herd or breeding project at home.

Next time you head out to a show make sure you have packed the right equipment for your animal. I wish you all a fun and successful show season!
