Hog Building
Topic Of Pork
COLUMBUS, Ohio Not all
pigs are created equal, and their
homes shouldn't be either, said
Dale Ricker, swine associate at
the Putnam County office of
Ohio State University
Extension.
Farrowing buildings and
nurseries were baby pigs are
bom and housed should be kept
warm, while buildings designed
for finishing—where older pigs
are readied for market should
be kept at around 55 degrees to
60 degrees Fahrenheit, Ricker
said. That's because a mild, dry
environment is better for the
health and growth of finishing
hogs than a warm, humid envi
ronment is better for the health
and growth of finishing hogs
than a warm, humid environ
ment.
To learn more about the topic,
early arrivals to the 1998 Ohio
Pork Congress on Friday, Feb.
20, can participate in the
Building Design and Ventilation
Alternatives sessions presented
by Ohio State University
Extension from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.
Subjects discussed will include
breeding and gestation building
design, farrowing and nursery
design and ventilation alterna
tives, wean to finish building
design and management,
grow/finish buildings, and hoop
structures.
"Hog prices aren't too good
now, but there has been some
money made in pork production
the past two years, so producers
are able to invest in new or
remodeled buildings," Ricker
said. "We try to do programs
that producers will be interested
in, and we've been getting a lot
of questions about building
design in the past year."
Designs for all the stages in
pork production will be covered,
from breeding and gestation
through finishing. Through
slides and discussion, partici
pants should get a good
overview of what types of struc
tures have been built recently.
Ricker said.
"This session should be good
for all producers, whether
they're doing something now,
next year or the year after," he
said.
Ventilation, especially of far
rowing and nursery buildings,
also will be discussed.
Ventilation systems continuous
ly remove the heat, moisture
and odors crated by livestock
and replenish the oxygen supply
by bringing in drier, cooler out
side air. Air exchange also
removes gases such as ammo
nia, hydrogen sulfide and
methane that can be harmful to
both animal and operator
health.
Other Ohio State University
Extension presentations at Pork
Congress will be composting
swine mortality certification
seminar, also on Feb. 20 from 8
a.m. to 10 a.m., two sessions
each on swine health and the
Internet, and the Swine Health
and Technology Comer with vet
erinarians and Extension Swine
Team members available
throughout the Congress to
answer questions.
The Swine Health sessions
will take place Feb. 20 and Feb.
21 at 10 a.m. Topics discussed
during Friday's session will
include Segregated Early
Weaning (SEW) Nursery Health
Management, and Porcine
Reproduction and Respiratory
Syndrome (PRRS) and Swine
Interactions.
Influenza
Saturday's topics include
Emerging Diseases, and Hazard'
Analysis and Critical Control
Points (HACCP) Impact at the
Farm Level.
The Internet sessions will
cover what pork information is
available on the Internet, what
type of computer producers will
need, where to start and how to
get hooked up.
"About 30 percent of farmers
use computers, but we’ll mostly
be focusing on the 70 percent
who don't and answering ques
tions they may have," said
Ag Land Preservation
Board Holds Elections
SUNBURY (Northumberland
Co.) - The Northumberland
County Agricultural Land
Preservation Board elected offi
cers for 1998 during a recent
meeting. David L. Unger, Rush
Township, was re-elected chair
man of the board and William
Geise, Point Township, was re
elected as vice chairman.
Carolyn Badman, Sunbury, was
elected as secretary-treasurer.
Other members of the

county commissioners.
The Northumberland County
Agricultural Land Preservation
Board is responsible for admin
istering the farmland preserva
tion program in
Northumberland County. The
board receives applications from
farmers who want to sell ease
ments on their farms to insure
their land remains in agricul
ture for perpetuity. Applications
are then ranked according to
state and county program guide
lines.
Program guidelines include
an evaluation of the soils and an
assessment of the farm's site.
Seminar To Discuss Ways
To Build With Nature
WEST PITTSTON (Luzerne
Co.) - Today's home buyer is
looking for a house surrounded
by the beauty of nature.
In response to this demand,
developers and homebuilders
can create beautiful, healthy
communities by building with
nature.
Building with nature
involves planning for and prop
erly incorporating and conserv
ing natural resources during
development. Many developers
have already recognized that
commercial and residential con
struction can be more profitable
when natural features are
designed into the project and
protected.
Without a clear understand
ing of the impacts construction
activities can have on trees and
natural resources, the features

Congress
David Meeker, director of Ohio
State's Ohio Pork Industry
Center.
Jhe Internet sessions are
scheduled for Feb. 20 at 2 p.m.
and Feb. 21 at 1 p.m.
The Ohio Pork Congress is
Feb. 19 to Feb. 21 at the Dayton
Convention Center. For more
information regarding the
Congress, call the Ohio Pork
Producers Council at (614) 882-
5887, or visit their website
(http://www.ohiopork.orgX For
more information about hog
building designs and ventila
tion, contact county offices of
Ohio State University
Extension.
Fifty percent of the soils must be
available for agricultural pro
duction, according to capability'
classes defined by the USDA,
Natural Resources Conservation
Service. The site assessment
portion consists of factors that
consider development potential,
farmland potential, and cluster
ing potential. The farm must be
located in an agricultural securi
ty area, with consideration
given to the likelihood the farm
will be converted to a nonagn
cultural use. Other criteria
states the tract must be at least
50 acres in size, contain 50 per
cent harvested cropland or pas
tureland, and receive considera
tion for the farm's proximity to
other farms with an agricultural
conservation easement. In addi
tion, the applicant must be a
good steward of the land.
All applications are ranked
on an annual basis. Prior to the
board meeting, 10 active appli
cations were scored according to
program guidelines, and their
rankings were determined. The
board officially approved the pri
ority ranking for the 10 applica
tions.
One easement has been pur
chased in Delaware/Turbot
townships. The board is opti
mistic another easement will
soon be completed in Delaware
Township, and they have begun
the process to purchase a tnird
one.
that attracted home buyers can
quickly be destroyed. Today's
home buyer's are better educat
ed about the environment and
natural resource issues and take
an interest in the land on which
they are building.
On Feb. 26, a seminar titled
"Building with Nature ■
Protecting Trees and Natural
Resources During Construction"
will be held at Luzerne County
Community College for the
building industry and communi
ty planners.
Preregistration and a $2O fee
that covers written material,
lunch, and breaks are required.
