“Mesurol has been found to be
the most effective way to help
prevent this crop damage,” he
said.
He said that Pennsylvania grape
producers were granted per
mission by the EPA to use Mesurol
for the first tune during the 1980
growing season. “This resulted in
a significant increase in
marketable fruit at harvest time.”
Other methods of controlling the
birds include scare devices and
netting “Scare devices have never
worked well,” Hallowell said, “and

although netting is effective, the
material is very expensive and
labor costs involved m covering
and uncovering the vines several
tunes each season are high.
“For example, several years ago
one grape producer lost virtually
all his crop as a result of bird
damage,” Hallowell said. “By
using Mesurol in his vineyards last
year he was able to keep losses to
less than five percent.”
The Secretary pointed out that
no environmental problems
developed when the product was
useu last year. He noted also that

Mesurol is only distasteful to the
birds but does not harm them.
Hallowell said, “Last year was
the first tune in seven years that
bird damage was not a significant
factor in the state’s grape
production. In most cases one
application of Mesuro}, far less
than the maximum allowable
amount, effectively eliminated the
bird problem.”
Mesuro] when applied wisely
and carefully, can protect the
public and environment,”
Hallowell said

herd enrollments and
records processed for
the first seven months of
this fiscal year as
compared to the same
period a year ago.
A total of 102,371 in
dividual weight records
have been processed
through the TPR
Department since
September 1, 1980. Of
the total, 60 percent of
the records were calf
weaning weight records
and the remaining 40
percent were yearling
weight records.
“We see this mcrease
as an indication that
Hereford breeders
everywhere are
depending more and
more on performance
records as another tool
in their herd im
provement, managem
ent and merchandising
program,’’ said Craid
Ludwin, AHA TPR
director.
“Another motivating
factor is that today’s
commercial cattlemen
are more performance
conscious and are
asking the registered
producers for such
records which
ultimately affect the net
value of the nation’s
commercial cattle
herds.
“The AHA was one of
the first beef cattle
organizations to provide
maternal and growth
breeding values, as well
as some other measures
important in testing for
total performance
These new programs
and values project an
animal's breeding value
as a parent and have
been readily adopted by
today’s seedstock
producer.”
To date, the AHA has
individual performance
data stored on over one
and a quarter million
animals. Such a
storehouse of knowledge
provides the basis for
the continual search to
improve current
programs as well as the
initiating point of more
useful concepts to
performance testing.
