Dairy, livestock, and poultry
products are a significant part of
Pennsylvania agriculture. While
several farm shows are held
throughout the Commonwealth, few
concentrate on the needs and issues
of animal housing. The
demonstrations, speakers, and
exhibits at the Animal Housing
Expo will focus on proven, state-of
the-art ventilation, feeding,
watering, manure handling, and
housing systems.
Dairy, livestock and poultry
producers may spend as little as a
few hundred dollars for renovations
or up to several hundreds thousand
dollars for new facilities to provide
adequate housing for their animals.
At the Animal Housing Expo, these
producers will have an opportunity
to investigate available options, talk
with industry experts, and select the
system and services that best meet
their needs.

Crop , Weather
Report
FOR THE WEEK
ENDING JUNE 26
GOOD WEEK FOR
FIELDWORK: There were five
days suitable for fieldwork. Scat
tered showers and thunderstorms
gave most sections some rainfall,
but amounts varied from a few
tenths to around 2 inches. Average
temperature for the state was above
normal for the 16th week in a row.
Soil moisture was rated short by 63
percent of our respondents, adequ
ate by 36 percent, and surplus by 2
percent. These were the driest con
ditions reported this year and many
crops were suffering from the heat
and low soil moisture. Activities
included planting soybeans, trans
planting tobacco, making hay,
spraying com, spreading fertilizer,
hauling manure, and caring for
livestock.
LIVESTOCK: Pasture feed avail
able was poor to fair and continued
to decline because of the hot, dry
weather. Many farmers were feed
ing supplemental hay to livestock
because of the poor recovery of
pasture.
