What has not been known is that oxytocin may have another role besides the milk-let-down effect when fre quency of milking is changed. A new study at the University of Shiraz in Iran found that dif ferent frequencies of oxytocin injections over entire lactations of milking sheep resulted in sig nificantly higher yields and longer lactations with more fre quent days of injections. Also, milk fat contents increased and somatic cell counts decreased HSING LUNG FARM TOP LINE OF MACHINERY DISPERSAL NYS Route 12 Hubbardsville, NY (Madison Co.)

This then relates very well to another new study from France, in which dairy sheep were milked one, two, three, four, five and seven times per day. Instead of injecting oxytocin, it was tested in the blood during these different frequencies of milking. The study found that milking frequency increased the total re lease of oxytocin, as well as milk yield and fat contents, indicat ing that natural oxytocin is in plentiful supply and is not limit ing milk yield gains and compo- Mar.

While this valuable informa tion must be confirmed for dairy cows, it probably applies to them as well. It is important to verify, however, because we are at the threshold of computer robotic milking. This will mean more frequent milking, since the cows can go to the robot milking ma chine when the pressure in the udder makes them go more fre quently than twice a day. Robot milking is already in operation on a number of dairy farms in the Netherlands, Eng land, Scandinavia, and Ger many. As soon as it is operable under U.S. public health codes, it will enter the American dairy industry and reduce labor re quirements tremendously. To know that the greater frequency of milking is also beneficial to milk yield and composition, in addition to labor reduction, is valuable for farm profits, just as it is with the computer grain feeding and computer milk nursing.

The new subsidy program will be included in President Clinton’s 2001 budget along with $1.3 billion in farm conser vation spending that Vice Presi dent A 1 Gore announced earlier this month and an additional $640 million earmarked for cut ting premiums on federally sub sidized crop insurance. The gov ernment has offered similar insurance discounts in 1999 and again this year in order to encourage more farmers to buy the coverage to protect against weather-related losses. Because commodity prices are only expected to rise slowly during the next several years, support has been building in Congress and among farm orga nizations to come up with a new way to subsidize growers when Ul \%% FARM ITEMS Lancaster Fanning, Saturday, March 18, 2000-Mi $3.18 in Farm Subsidies Proposed prices are low. The administration’s new program was originally pro posed by economists at the Agri culture Department and Ohio State University in the early 19905. Critics have said the pay ments could worsen the world wide grain glut by encouraging farmers to plant crops in areas where they do not do well, some thing the 1996 farm law was intended to discourage. Newpher, the Farm Bureau lobbyist, praised the administra tion for proposing the program. Clinton had proposed improving the farm “safety net” in his State of the Union message a year ago and again Thursday night, but the administration never spelled out a proposal of its own until Friday. “We need to get started on this discussion right away,” Newpher said.
