If stray voltage is suspected, a test should be conducted by the dairy’s fieldman, a milking equip ment technician, a knowledgeable electrician, or an extension agent This can be done with a regular voltage meter testing between an independent ground rod and the main panel’s ground wire, or by using a recording meter that will 4-07 24,525 880 813 4-05 30,142 3-04 28,428 1041 069 847 821 5-04 26,531 768 855 4-05 25.838 038 818 627 816 3-04 25,256 806 812 979 824 3- 26,565 4- 30,635 782 804 4-04 28,306 1104 884 3-00 28.326 Hoc oao 1152 oao 025 848 4-02 31,104 4-00 31,112 34)2 25,402 815 833 4-00 20,513 eed Division plot the voltage over a period of 5-7 days.

Very often the source is an on farm problem due to poor or cor roded connections and/or poody grounded circuits.

Funding was made available from interest income of the AJCC Research Foundation. Qualifying proposals were selected from a Geld of 18 based on their relevance to Jersey research priorities. Those priorities included nutri tion of high-producing Jerseys (particularly practical feeding methods to maximize production of valuable milk components); factors affecting yield of products manufactured from Jersey milk; factors affecting net income, longevity, and lifetime profit; optimal young sire usage; biologi cal and economic efficiencies of Jerseys; and factors affecting management of Jersey calves. Researchers and their respec tive institutions will receive the designated funds to conduct the investigations. The recipients are listed by name of researcher, insti tution, project and amount the AJCA is contributing. Bell, Alan W., Hollis N. Erb and Buzz W. Burhans, Cornell University. Ithaca, NY.
