This document outlines 10 positive farm labor management practices that can benefit farmers, employees, and agricultural communities. It is based on research interviewing over 100 employees on 12 farms. Implementing practices like respectful treatment, fair compensation, and safe working conditions can increase employee retention and satisfaction, reducing costs for farmers. It also improves product quality and farm profits. Low-cost strategies include respectful treatment, acknowledging employees, and open communication. The document provides details on each practice and their benefits.
Organic small grain production relies on sustainable farming methods that exclude synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. The document discusses organic certification requirements and provides recommendations for several publications on organic farming techniques. These include using crop rotations, cover crops, compost, and biological pest control to maintain soil health and minimize pests without synthetic chemicals. Marketing organic small grains also differs from conventional grains in requiring contracts with buyers and splitting harvests across multiple buyers each month.
Poultry: Equipment for Alternative ProductionElisaMendelsohn
This document provides information on equipment for small-scale poultry flocks that have access to the outdoors. It discusses watering and feeding equipment, fencing considerations, and roosting and nesting boxes. Key issues addressed include ensuring access to clean drinking water, preventing chickens from soiling the water, and providing spill-proof watering systems. The document emphasizes that reliable water is essential for poultry health.
This document provides an overview of horticulture therapy programs at the Cook County Jail in Chicago. The programs allow former jail detainees who participate in a furlough program to grow and harvest plants and herbs in gardens located across from the jail. The programs aim to provide therapeutic benefits to participants such as boosting self-esteem and relaxation. They have proven effective in helping participants' healing and growth. The horticulture therapy was proposed by expressive therapist Eric Dean Spruth and is overseen by Cermak Health Services, the agency providing health care to the jail.
This document provides information on flame weeding as a non-chemical weed control technique for vegetable crops. It discusses using flame weeding pre-emergence through stale seedbed and peak emergence techniques to control the first flush of weeds. It also covers post-emergence flame weeding methods like cross flaming, parallel flaming, and middle flaming to selectively control weeds between crop rows or in the crop row. The document outlines best practices and considerations for effective flame weeding of different vegetable crops.
Predator Control for Sustainable & Organic Livestock ProductionElisaMendelsohn
This document discusses predator control methods for sustainable livestock production. It focuses on identifying predator attacks and controlling coyotes and dogs, which account for over 75% of livestock losses. The document recommends using an integrated approach, including fencing, guard animals, and management practices, to minimize losses in a sustainable manner. Once predators have killed livestock, quick action is important to prevent further attacks.
This document provides a sustainability checklist for dairy farms to evaluate their operations. It includes sections on farm resources, management, facilities, livestock and forage programs, nutrient management, marketing, and assessments of pastures, soils, and watersheds. The checklist is intended to stimulate critical thinking about how management decisions impact different areas of the farm and identify strengths and areas for improvement. It suggests using the checklist over multiple meetings and focusing on identifying information needs rather than judging practices.
This document discusses methods for controlling troublesome thistles such as Canada and musk thistles. It begins by providing background on the biology and spread of these invasive species. It then outlines both non-chemical and biological control methods. For biological control, it describes several beneficial insect species that have been used to reduce thistle populations through feeding on different plant stages and reducing seed production.
Organic System Plans: Field and Row Crops and Pasture and Range SystemsElisaMendelsohn
This document provides an example of an organic system plan for a Midwestern crop farm applying for organic certification. It includes maps of the farm and fields, a field history sheet detailing past crops grown, and a main application form covering the farm plan, soil and crop fertility management, crop management practices, and plans for maintaining organic integrity. Supplementary documents are also included to provide additional information required by certifiers. The goal is to help farmers understand the level of detail certifiers expect in an organic system plan and application for certification.
This document provides information on organic asparagus production, including variety selection, site preparation, weed, insect and disease management. Key points:
1) Variety selection is important, with all-male hybrids like 'Jersey Giant' yielding much more than older varieties. Soil pH between 6.5-7.5 and amendments before planting also improve growth.
2) Weed control is a major challenge, requiring elimination of perennials before planting and a combination of cultivation, mulching, cover crops and flaming for annual weeds.
3) Pests like asparagus beetle and rust can reduce yields but can be managed through sanitation, crop rotation and resistant varieties.
Sustainable Management of Soil-borne Plant DiseasesElisaMendelsohn
This document discusses strategies for managing soil-borne plant diseases through sustainable practices rather than chemical interventions. It explains that restoring biodiversity to the soil through compost, cover crops, and other organic amendments can create disease-suppressive soils where beneficial soil organisms outcompete pathogens. Maintaining diverse, healthy soil life through these general suppression methods is presented as a better approach than chemical controls or direct inoculation of specific biocontrol agents, as it provides long-lasting protection against multiple soil-borne diseases.
This document provides an overview of organic pear production, covering key pests and diseases, and their organic management. Pear trees have fewer pest problems than other tree fruits. Fireblight is the most serious disease, but can be managed through resistant cultivars and preventative sprays of antibiotics like streptomycin. Other important pests include pear psylla, which transmits diseases and weakens trees, and can be controlled with dormant oil sprays or sulfur. True bugs also feed on pears and cause damage, and populations can be reduced with trap crops and biological controls. Overall, pears are relatively easy to produce organically with proper cultivar selection and integrated pest management.
Growing Your Range Poultry Business: An Entrepreneur's ToolboxElisaMendelsohn
This document provides an introduction and table of contents to a toolbox for growing a range poultry business. It was created by several organizations for Heifer International to help entrepreneurs evaluate the feasibility of range poultry enterprises. It includes sections on feasibility assessments, marketing, production, profitability, developing a business plan, record keeping, resources, and producer profiles. Budget templates are also included to analyze costs for different production systems and processing options like on-farm processing or mobile processing units. The goal is to help new and existing producers determine if a range poultry business is viable and expand successfully.
This document provides an overview of considerations for organic hog production. It discusses the importance of integrating livestock and crop production to create a sustainable system where manure can fertilize fields growing feed. The document also examines animal welfare issues, requirements under the USDA organic rule, and behaviors of hogs related to nesting, rooting, wallowing and foraging. It reviews options for pastured and housed production including pasture farrowing and finishing systems, deep straw farrowing shelters and open buildings. Husbandry practices that can reduce stress during handling and weaning are also discussed.
