Brockett's Ag Advice
Manage your future
Calves and heifers are the future
ot any dairy farmer’s business
Unfortunately many dairy
producers relegate them to the
back burner because they are not
demanding time like the insects
visibly eating crops, and they are
not reluming any immediate cash
We can’t afford to treat such a
valuable resource so shabbily If
you had a one thousand dollar bill,
you’d treat it with respect If you
had a 2-ounce gold com, it would be
kept in a place of safety That
heifer pushed out on the back 40 is
worth more than either one of
those items
I don’t know how to gel the point
across to you on how important it is
to properly care for those animals
I'm a bit like the little bo> in
kindergarten His teacher asked
the class to give her examples ot
things shaped like a cube Each
child named an item such as a box.
an ice cube, etc Fmalh the next to
last child said a half pound ot
butter
Then it was Johnny s turn His
imagination just was not working
until suddenly he got an in
spiration His answer was the
other half of that pound of butter
1 have written news letters and
news columns on this subject for
vears 1 still see far 100 many ill
treated, thousand-dollar assets
called heifers I had about given up
on the subject until I read the
following quote from Marshal
1* och 1 here are no hopeless
situations, there are only people
who have grown hopeless about
them ’

By John E. Brockett
Farm Management Agent
Lewistown Extension Office
Then 1 read a quote by Konrad
Adenauer The good Ixird set
definite limits on mans wisdom,
but set no limits on his stupidity -
and that s just not fair 1 ’ - So I
decided to try once more
Heifers need some protection
from weather extremes Other
than that, they can shift fairly well
for themselves if they are properly
fed, can fight the insects, and have
ample water available
Contrary to usual opinion,
heifers require good quality feed
Ixiw quality or heifer hay may
be no bargain except as a heat
producer during very told
weather This low qual.ty forage
will probably cost the dairy
producer more gram to grow the
heifers Pastuie is an excellent
wa\ to grow neifers economically
if
it is supplemented with other
good feed during most of the
pa-ture season
they have salt and possibly
minerals w hile on pasture
- the dairyman treats them foi
pai asiles i w orms and flies I and
- they have ample water
Heifer health
Heifers don’t need much but
what they do need is exercise,
observation, adequate feed,
quahtv forage, parasite control,
and the dairy producer s attention
Good heifer management is just
plain common * cents ” They
represent future dollars
