Winnebago County Agriculture Activities &...

Hello Winnebago County Farmers,

On behalf of the Breakfast Planning Committee, a

big thank you goes out to the Silverthorn Family

farm host, the 130+ volunteers, and the 75+

sponsors that made the Breakfast on the Farm a

great success.

To everyone involved, the day truly felt like a

special occasion. Feedback was overwhelmingly

positive from those in attendance. For people

who like numbers, we had: 1,340 adults, 541 kids,

and 132 volunteers, which adds up to 2,013

people.

This spring and summer I have been emailing

weekly crop condition updates that include

Winnebago County field observations, the

Wisconsin Crop Manager Newsletter, and the

Wisconsin Pest Update. Sometimes brand-new

tip sheets that address current field problems are

included as well. If anyone does not have an

email account but would like to read the weekly

update, please call me. We can mail it to you if

you plan to really read it.

I look forward to seeing you again at the fair this summer.

Nick Schneider, Your County Agricultural Agent

WISCONSIN’S UPDATED NITROGEN RATES

In fall of 2012, the University of Wisconsin-Extension released an updated

publication titled “Nutrient Application Guidelines for Field, Vegetable, and Fruit

Crops in Wisconsin” (Publication No. A2809) authored by UW Soil Scientists

Carrie Laboski and John Peters. A2809 is the foremost nutrient management

guide for anyone growing crops in Wisconsin. Hardcopies of UW-Extension

publications can be ordered online at learningstore.uwex.edu or purchased

from county UW-Extension offices. The Learning Store website has a nice

feature that allows people to view the document online by pressing the “View

PDF” tab in the bottom left corner of a publication’s product promotional

webpage.

Excessive rainfall has led to denitrification or nitrogen leaching in many fields.

Under these conditions nitrogen deficiency will lower yields at a time when

farms desperately need more forage. Provided in the table on page 8 are

nitrogen rate guidelines from A2809 for common forage and bioenergy crops.

Corn and wheat use the MRTN method and do not fit in the next page.



WINNEBAGO COUNTY FARM BUREAU SCHOLARSHIP

The Winnebago County Farm Bureau is pleased to announce that it will be awarding two $500.00 higher education scholarships. The scholarships will be awarded to two students (including graduating high school seniors) who are enrolled in an accredited college, university, technical college, or Farm Industry Short Course. All majors will be considered for this scholarship; however, the priority is to support students enrolled in an agricultural field of study. Applicants will be judged on leadership, scholastic achievement (minimum GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale), extracurricular activities, and future goals.

The applicant must be from a current Winnebago County Farm Bureau member family. Applicants not receiving scholarships may reapply in subsequent years, but winners of one of these scholarships will be ineligible to apply again. Awards will be mailed directly to the trust department of the recipient’s school by October 15, 2013.

Completed applications must be postmarked by July 15, 2013. Send to Winnebago County Farm Bureau Scholarship Program

UW MILK QUALITY RESOURCES TO HELP DECREASE SCC

by Nick Schneider

A prolonged snowy winter, a muddy spring and continuous rainfall have made it even more difficult to keep Somatic Cell Counts (SCC) in milk under control. Adding stress to this situation is the decision of many milk processors to adopt the European Union milk quality standard of a maximum SCC of 400,000 cells/ml in a three-month running average. Milk buyers needed to make this change to be permitted to sell dairy product and byproducts such as whey into the European marketplace. Access to more markets helps the bottom line of the dairy industry. Whether you are working to keep below 400,000 SCC to stay in the good graces of your milk processor or you want to trim another 50,000 SCC to improve milk quality premiums, UW Extension has an impressively comprehensive library of tools to help dairy farmers make decisions that will help lower SCC. The website can be found online at:

http://milkquality.wisc.edu/

Not online? I’m glad to access the material and meet with you in person so we go through the details. MILK MONEY Developed around a decade ago by Dr. Pamela Ruegg, Milk Money is a team-based approach to decreasing SCC. Many hundreds of farms in Wisconsin have participated in Milk Money since the curriculum was developed. A Milk Money team might consist of the farm owner, milker(s), milk processor field representative, veterinarian, milking equipment consultant, ag agent, or the nutritionist. The team will have multiple meetings, typically four, to access the milk quality situation, plan a course of action, monitor changes in milk quality, and adjust action plans. Not interested in the team approach? With everyone having busy schedules team meetings can be challenging to convene. Some dairy farmers prefer to work independently. Milk Money can still help. Here is an outline from Milk Money titled, “10 Smart Things Dairy Farms Do To Achieve Milk Excellence”. Continued on page 13...



Smart Farms... 1. Set performance goals: What SCC do you want to achieve? 2. Rapidly identify problems: Review SCC of each tank and DHI records.

3. Milk clean cows: A major source of mastitis is environmental pathogens. 4. Standardize milking routines: There is not an ideal milking routine but many modern routines include milkers wear nitril or latex gloves, forestripping, predipping, drying teats, and postdipping.

5. Train their staff: Everyone milking should be trained to milk the same way.

6. Maintain and update milking equipment: Have a milking system diagnostic performed to assure 10.5-12.5” Hg during peak flow.

7. Have treatment protocols. Have a plan for when and which treatments are administered.

8. Have mastitis biosecurity plans. Many types of mastitis are contagious.

9. Take care of dry cows. Cows can easily be exposed to environmental mastitis during this period.

10. Use appropriate consultants. Mastitis is complicated, assembling a team of people can help solve problems.

Not all causes of mastitis are the same. The previous 10 ideas are important themes for improving milk quality. But milk cultures are an important tool for identifying which bacteria is causing the mastitis. Once the specific pathogen is known, then action plans can be more specific. Causes of mastitis include Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Environmental Streps, Coliform Mastitis, Mycoplasma, E. Coli, and Klebsiella.

The UW Milk Quality webpage has both fact sheets and short videos with

instructions on how to fight these forms of mastitis. There are currently 17 short videos posted with topics including: “Subclinical Mastitis in Dairy Cows”, “Clinical Mastitis in Dairy Cows”, “Managing Cows With Chronic Mastitis, “Managing Mastitis, The Pathogen Series”, “Methods for Cow Prep”, and “Preventing Milk Flow Stallout”.

If you would like to watch any of these online videos but you don’t have a computer, please let me know so we can set up a viewing at the Extension

office. I’m glad to facilitate your Milk Money team meeting.

REVISED FARMLAND PRESERVATION PROGRAM The revised Farmland Preservation Program (FPP) has had important changes that occurred regarding eligible State tax credits. The most important changes or rules are as follows:

The previous Farmland Tax Credit Program has been eliminated,

and only those people enrolled in the Farmland Preservation Program are eligible for a tax credit.

To be eligible for the Farmland Preservation Program the land you

are filing the credit for must be zoned A1-Exclusive Agriculture (FPP zoned) and must be located in one of the following eight Towns in Winnebago County: Clayton, Neenah, Nepeuskun, Nekimi, Utica, Vinland, Winchester or Wolf River. If your land is not in one of these Towns, the land is not eligible!

Your land must be located in the FPP mapped area in the revised

Winnebago County Farmland Preservation Plan.

To be eligible for the FPP tax credit you must meet the County and

State Conservation/Agricultural Performance Standards on all of your land, regardless if only a portion of it is within the eligible mapped area.

All landowners or their operators are required to meet with

Winnebago County Land and Water Conservation Department annually (normally in January, February & March) to certify compliance with the FPP before filing for the tax credit.

Contact Winnebago County Land & Water Conservation Department to

verify your FPP eligibility status.

If you have any questions or concerns about the current FPP tax credit or the eligibility status of your property, please contact Tom Davies or Sheila Kiddy at 920-232-1950 or 920-727-8642 or stop in our office to discuss it.



CONSERVATION TIP

ASSESS CROPLAND CONSERVATION NEEDS

NOW by Tom Davies

As the seeding deadline approaches it is time to assess conservation

needs. An opportunity has arisen with the wild weather we have had in

2013 so far. With planting done or almost done and harvesting just around

the corner take a little time to assess your property. As you worked your

cropland did you notice large washes, lots of rills, or gullies running across

the field? Were the road ditches along your property filled with large

amounts of soil? If you noticed any of these contact the Land and Water

Conservation Department (LWCD) at 920-232-1950.

There are a number of conservation practices such as grassed waterways

and diversions that address runoff. Your LWCD can assist you with options

to repair your runoff issues and in some cases cost sharing may be

available. If timed right conservation practices can be constructed with

minimal effect of crops. Between hay crops or as other crops (such as oats

or wheat) are harvested from fields can be an ideal time to get equipment in

to build conservation practices. Don’t wait to long because August 21st is

the seeding cutoff date after that we may have to look into other

nontraditional seeding options.

Why should you care if soil is running off your fields? The reason that

should hit home with all of you is that it cost you money. As soil washes off

the field it takes valuable nutrients and organic matter with it. This means

either you lose productivity in your soil or you have to pay to add fertilizer

back to the soil. When the road ditches fill up with soil that has runoff from

cropland the county or town road crews waste valuable time and money

repairing/cleaning the ditches. These extra ditch cleanings cost you money

on your tax bill in the long run. Also there are of course environmental

reasons. Soil and nutrients carried away by runoff cause turbidity in the

water, algae blooms and deposition in streams which can negatively impact

fish and wildlife habitat.

As you are out and about your property if you see something that looks like

an issue, it probably is, contact your County LWCD for help, 920-232-1950.

It’s why we are here, it’s what we do.



USDA-FSA Announcements

FSA Reminds producers to Report Acreage by July 15th The Wisconsin Farm Service Agency (FSA) reminds producers to submit their annual acreage report to their local FSA county office by July 15, 2013, to meet FSA program eligibility requirements. Accurate acreage reports are necessary to determine and maintain eligibility for the Direct and Counter-cyclical Program (DCP), Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and programs extended from the 2008 Farm Bill, including the Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments Program (SURE) and Average Crop Revenue Election Program (ACRE). Acreage reports are considered timely filed when completed by the applicable final crop reporting deadline of July 15, 2013. Prevented acreage must be reported within 15 calendar days after the final planting date. Failed acreage must be reported before the disposition of the crop. NAP crops that are harvested prior to July 15 must report by the earlier of July 15, 2013 or 15 calendar days before the onset of harvest or grazing. Producers should contact their county FSA office if they are uncertain about reporting deadlines. Late-filed provisions may be available to producers who are unable to meet the reporting deadline as required. Reports filed after the established deadline must meet certain requirements to be accepted and may be charged late fees. Producers should visit their county FSA office to complete acreage reporting. For questions on this or any FSA program, including specific crop reporting deadlines and planting dates, producers should contact their county FSA office. More information on FSA programs is at: www.fsa.usda.gov

FSA County Committee Nominations Open House July 10th

Nomination Period: June 15th-August 1st

All Wisconsin Farm Service Agency (FSA) county offices in USDA Service Centers throughout the state will be hosting an annual open house on Wednesday, July 10, 2013, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. The open house is an opportunity for local producers and landowners to visit the FSA county office to find out more about the election process and how they can make a difference. Continued on page 17...

http://www.fsa.usda.gov



The nomination period for this year's election is from June 15 to August 1. There is plenty of time for local farmers and landowners to get involved, especially women and minority producers. “I encourage all eligible farmers to participate in this year's county committee elections by nominating candidates by the August 1 deadline," said Brad Pfaff, state executive director. "County committees are a vital link between the farm community and the U.S. Department of Agriculture and provide an opportunity to farmers for their opinions and ideas to be heard. We have been seeing an increase in the number of nominations of women and minority candidates and I hope that trend continues." To be eligible to serve on an FSA county committee, a person must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA, be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the local administrative area in which the person is a candidate. Farmers may nominate themselves or others, and organizations representing minorities and women also may nominate candidates. To become a candidate, an eligible individual must sign the nomination form, FSA-669A. The form and other information about FSA county committee elections are available online at :http://www.fsa.usda.gov/elections. Nomination forms for the 2013 election must be postmarked or received in the local USDA Service Center by close of business on Aug. 1, 2013. Elections will take place this fall. While FSA county committees do not approve or deny farm ownership or operating loans, they make decisions on disaster and conservation programs, emergency programs, commodity price support loan programs and other agricultural issues. Members serve three-year terms. Nationwide, there are about 7,800 farmers and ranchers serving on FSA county committees. Committees consist of three to 11 members that are elected by eligible producers. FSA will mail ballots to eligible voters beginning Nov. 4. The voted ballots are due back to the local county office either via mail or in person by Dec. 2. Newly elected committee members and alternates take office on Jan. 1, 2014 NOTE: Wisconsin FSA news releases and media advisories are available on the Web at http://www.fsa.usda.gov/wi

Traditional tillage practices, which were once considered necessary in order to

prepare a proper seed bed for planting, come at a high price with increasing

diesel prices and labor costs. However, the bigger, long-term cost may be the

health and function of the soil itself – resulting in lower yields, higher input

costs, and reduced drought resiliency for Wisconsin farms.

Traditional tillage is very destructive to the soil structure and to the soil

ecosystem. In healthy soil you have 50 percent air and water – which is made

possible by the pore space in the soil – and 50 percent mineral and organic

matter. But tillage collapses and destroys that structure, making the soil

vulnerable to erosion, surface crusting and compaction.

Because tillage destroys organic matter and soil structure, tillage actually

reduces the soil’s infiltration capacity. Besides infiltration capacity, soil structure

allows for greater crop rooting depths.

Fortunately, more and more producers in Wisconsin are farming with reduced

tillage systems which build soil health. Producers are using management

systems that include conservation practices, like no-till or strip till, diverse

crop rotations, planting cover crops and following nutrient and pest

management plans. These systems follow the four main soil health principles:

disturb less soil, increase plant diversity, grow living roots throughout the year

and keep the soil covered as much as possible. The benefits of improved soil

health extend far beyond the farm. Producers who improve the health of the soil

also increase its water-holding capacity and infiltration rate, which reduces

runoff that can cause flooding. Improved infiltration keeps nutrients and

sediment from being carried off into nearby lakes, rivers, and streams.

Producers interested in learning more about the basics and benefits of soil

health, or in receiving technical and financial assistance to implement a soil

health management system, should contact Merrie Schamberger, NRCS

District Conservationist, in Winnebago County at (920)424-0329 EXT 3.
