DlMmcnter Farming, Saturday, March 16,1996 Cornell Offers New Onion ITHACA, N.Y. The subject is onions, but the latest release from Cornell Cooperative Exten sion is no crying matter. Instead, Integrated Pest Man agement for Onions provides onion growers, consultants, and industry and extension personnel with the information necessary to make their job easier. The new manual is a useful reference in the recognition and management of insects, diseases, and weed pests of onions. “The publication emphasizes onions grown 'on muck soils in northeastern North America, but will be a valuable guide for onion producers across the country,” said author Michael P. Hoffman, assistant professor of entomology at Cornell University, who has research and extension responsi bility for integrated pest manage ment in vegetable crops. He co authored the manual with Curtiss H. Petzoldt, assistant director of the New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, and Anne C. Frodsham, former research support specialist with Cornell University’s Department of Entomology. The 78-page, 8.5” by 11”, soft- 21st Century Announces Death Of Rex SHAWANO, Wis.—On Jan. 10, at just over 14 years of age, one of the Holstein breed’s all time great Holstein sires, 1H7380 Lutz Brookview Bell Rex, was put to sleep because of deteriorating physical condition. One of the most prolific semen producers in AI history, Rex is expected to have an impact on Holstein herds around the world for years to come. Through Dec. 31, 1995, Rex had produced 1,022,722 units of semen, 933,846 of which have been sold (through Nov. 30, 1995). He is believed to be one of only three bulls in history to pro duce over a million semen units. Rex continues to be a high ranking sire in terms of his ability to transmit outstanding production and type. In the latest USDA and Holstein Association sire summa ries, he has 27,703 daughters in 6,779 herds, with a predicted transmitting ability of +1265 lbs. of milk and +44 lbs. of protein. Classified Excellent-94 him self, Rex has transmitted outstand ing type to some of his daughters, including extreme dairyness and very correct udders. He is also one of the breed’s best for reducing calving difficulty when used on virgin heifers. Rarely does a bull remain active in AI for the length of time Rex has been at 21st Century Genetics. “Bulls like Rex don’t come along very often,” said Glen Gilbert, vice president of production for the Cooperative. “He’s a rare indi vidual that has helped the profita bility of dairy herds world-wide.” In other news, Noba, 21st Cen tury Genetics and Federated Classified ads! ft PAY OFF! a x . cover manual made its debut at the New York State Vegetable Con ference in Syracuse in early February. Integrated Pest Man agement for Onions contains a general introduction to the con cept and practice of integrated pest management and discusses the growth, development and pro duction of onions. It contains 86 color photo graphs of important pests that attack onions, including insects, mites, diseases, amd weeds. For each insect pest, information is provided on appearance, life cycle and biology, and management Natural enemies of insect pests of onions—predators, parasitoids, and pathogens—are also detailed, as well as how to conserve these natural enemies and use them in an integrated pest management program from early season to harvest. Sections arc also devoted to managing resistance to pesticides, with specific information on how to scout onions and use the cur rently available disease prediction systems. Appendices detail sever al forecasting systems, including Blight-Alert, Botcast, Downcast, Genetics have been designated as the exclusive North American dis tributors for semen on bulls from two cooperatives in France, URCECOF and Genes Diffusion. Initially, one Holstein bull, named Ectavia, is to be available. His French proof converts to +6O lbs. of protein, +62 lbs. of fat and +2OlB lbs. of milk. There are no official conversions for type with France, but his French type proof is +l.O. He has sired excellent udders and above average stature. Ectavia resulted from an imported embryo. He is sired by Cleitus and is out of an Excellent-90 daughter of Valiant with over 36,000 pounds of milk and 1159 pounds of protein. The initial shipments of semen from France are expected in late February. Availability on Ectavia will be limited at first, but supplies should increase during the year. With its large, progressive sam pling program, other French bulls will be added to the lineup on a regular basis. The two French cooperatives have been sampling about 135 bulls per year, but plan to increase that number to 155. Selection programs are similar to ours, with strong emphasis on protein pound s. They'also emphasize percent protein and udders. Cows are contracted throughout France and embryos are imported from the United States. U.S. bulls have been used heav ily as sires of sons and the French have also begun to use Dutch bulls as mating sires. Similar to our experience with the bulls from Holland, many of the bulls in France will be eligible for registry in the official Holstein herdbook.
