Farm Succession and Estate Planning with Personal Coaching for Participating...nacaa
County extension faculty in Oregon and Washington started a farm succession planning project to help farm families in the region. They held workshops covering topics like estate planning, family communication, and overcoming challenges. Participating families who committed to developing a succession plan received free coaching. Coaches contacted families regularly by phone or email to encourage them through the process. Surveys found that the coaching was effective and many families made progress on succession planning, though not all completed a full plan. The program demonstrated the importance of succession planning education and coaching support for farm families.
Don Bosco entretenía a los jóvenes con juegos y, a pesar de la oposición de su hermano, estudió y se hizo sacerdote. Abrió un oratorio para ayudar a los jóvenes necesitados, donde aprendían oficios y recibían donaciones. Promovió la devoción a María Auxiliadora y se preocupó por los jóvenes de todo el mundo.
This document provides a summary of basic chemistry concepts including:
1. Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass, and can undergo physical or chemical changes. The four main elements that make up the human body are carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen.
2. Atoms are the building blocks of elements and contain protons, neutrons, and electrons. The number of protons determines the element. Isotopes of elements vary in neutron number.
3. Molecules are formed by chemical bonds between two or more like atoms, while compounds contain two or more different atoms bonded together. Electron configuration and bonding allow for chemical reactions.
Tropical rainforests are found in areas with high temperatures between 20-30 degrees Celsius and high rainfall between 1000-2000 mm annually. They have 3 main layers - the emergent layer with the tallest trees up to 50m high and buttress roots, the canopy layer 15-30m tall that blocks 70% of sunlight, and the undergrowth layer that receives very little sunlight. Rainforests are threatened by deforestation for agriculture, logging and development which causes extinction of plants and animals. Singapore had rainforests but they were cleared for population and industry growth, though reserves like Bukit Timah Nature preserve remnants for water catchment, recreation and heritage.
Deserts are defined as areas that receive less than 250 mm of rainfall per year. There are two main types of deserts - hot deserts found in tropical regions like the Sahara and cold deserts or tundra found in temperate regions like the Gobi. Vegetation in hot deserts is sparse and spaced far apart to cope with low rainfall through fleshy stems, swollen roots, small leaves and short life cycles. Vegetation in cold deserts is small, compact and close to the ground to withstand strong winds with short roots and leaves. Natural vegetation provides many benefits including being a natural resource, having medicinal value, enabling recreation, producing oxygen, forming rain and preventing soil erosion.

Teen 4-H members in Unicoi County, TN are using GPS and GIS technology to map local natural resources and increase outdoor recreation in the area. Their projects include mapping sections of the Appalachian Trail, storm drains, and recycling centers. Through these projects, over 70 youth have hiked over 8 miles while improving skills in teamwork, communication, conservation, and technology. Their maps have won awards and been presented at conferences, and have helped promote the county as an outdoor destination.
1) AGsploration is a science curriculum for Maryland middle school students focusing on agriculture, the environment, and nutrition.
2) The curriculum includes 22 peer-reviewed lesson plans and hands-on activities aligned with Maryland standards.
3) In 2011, 55 teen volunteers were trained to teach the curriculum through their schools, communities, and 4-H programs, reaching over 3,500 youth through 159 lessons.
This program aimed to educate dairy producers on best milking practices to decrease somatic cell count (SCC) and increase profitability. Over 300 producers participated in one-day workshops covering milking procedures, facility sanitation, and mastitis detection. A follow-up survey found that 89% of participants implemented new practices like using strip cups and milking gloves. 83% saw reduced SCC, averaging a decrease of 162,000 cells. This led to estimated increased profits of $4,000-$7,000 per farm through improved milk quality and production. The workshops were effective at teaching producers to adopt standardized operating procedures.

The Tooele County Weed Board worked with the Goshute Tribe to control noxious weeds and establish new seeding on 80 acres of tribal land. Weed control efforts over 2009-2010 using herbicides reduced problem weeds like knapweed and thistle. In 2010, 48 round bales were harvested from 20 acres, worth $3,069. After reseeding with grasses in 2010 and continued weed control in 2011, 110 round bales were harvested from the same 20 acres in 2011, worth $10,872 - an increase of $7,803. The total project cost $12,400 and restored previously unusable land while significantly increasing forage production and value for the Tribe
The Rutgers Agritourism Working Group discovered that many New Jersey farms have shifted from wholesale markets to direct sales and agritourism due to economic pressures. Their research found that 1 in 5 NJ farms now engage in agritourism, generating $57.5 million annually. Farmers need education on agritourism topics like visitor safety and social media. The group secured $40,000 to host three agritourism conferences for 211 farmers across the state. Survey results found that 100% of attendees felt the conferences met expectations, with 36% feeling they exceeded expectations and 35% feeling they far exceeded expectations.
Since 2009, five Annie's Project classes in East Central and Southeast Missouri reached 57 farm women from diverse agricultural backgrounds, including row crops, cattle, equine, poultry, and more. To effectively teach participants with different farm types and needs, facilitators utilized methods like split sessions, individual attention, and tailoring some topics. Overall, 61% of participants reported implementing behaviors like updating property titles, and participants rated the program highly at 4.75 out of 5 for satisfaction and value of topics covered.
The document describes a BEEF Camp program in Idaho that educates youth beef producers about factors that influence end product quality. Over 100 youth have participated in three BEEF Camps to date. The curriculum covers topics like measuring carcass quality, the effects of feeds on quality, and selecting market steers. Hands-on activities include a taste panel and cut identification. Pre- and post-tests showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge, and feedback was very positive. The goal is to continue the partnership between the University of Idaho Extension and the Idaho Beef Council to further educate youth on beef quality through BEEF Camp.
1) The Master Gardeners of Greene County operate a volunteer-driven hotline to address over 2,000 gardening inquiries annually, many related to pest identification and management.
2) In 2010, a project was initiated to develop an effective diagnostic clinic to help volunteers address inquiries in a timely and accurate manner. Equipment, supplies, and training were provided to volunteers.
3) Surveys found the diagnostic clinic improved volunteers' satisfaction, confidence, knowledge, and the hotline's accuracy. The number of volunteers increased from 32 to 40 between 2010 and 2012.

The one-day "Commercial Grape and Wine Analysis - A Practical Approach" workshop provided analytical techniques to wine grape growers and winemakers. The 41 attendees represented over 200 acres of vineyards and 117,000 gallons of wine produced. Popular topics included soil, leaf, and berry sampling; reading soil tests; assessing winter damage; wine sensory analysis; and analytical procedures. Evaluations found the topics on assessing winter injuries and sampling techniques as the most helpful. The interactive format effectively brought together growers and winemakers to improve communication and cooperation.
The document summarizes a project called "GPS 101: Technology for Better Land Management" that held workshops to educate landowners on GPS and GIS technologies and how they can assist in land management. The project consisted of eight introductory workshops held across various counties in Alabama. 142 people attended the workshops, most having no prior experience with geospatial technologies. Post-workshop evaluations found attendees' knowledge increased by an average of 23% and that many have since incorporated these technologies into their own land management practices. The project outcomes demonstrate that educational workshops are effective for promoting adoption of GPS and GIS tools.
Md small flock research survey 2012 poster (1) draft (2)nacaa
University of Maryland Extension conducted a statewide survey in 2011 to evaluate the impacts of its Small Flock Poultry Educational Program (SFEP). The survey found that 41% of participants reported improved flock health and a 20% increase in income after using SFEP resources like workshops, publications, and website. Participants also implemented biosecurity practices they learned like isolating new/show birds, controlling traffic, sanitation, dedicated footwear, and composting mortality. The SFEP held 12 workshops across Maryland from 2008-2012 for over 250 small flock owners on topics including biosecurity, diseases, management, and processing. The goal was to promote small flock education throughout the state.
This document describes methods tested to train new Master Gardeners to manage a telephone resource line for horticultural questions. Trainees were given real examples from the line and taught resource line management. Having an experienced gardener assist during the first calls and the coordinator's availability were found most effective based on surveys. As a result, 100% of trainees planned to volunteer for the line the following year.
This study evaluated the use of Environmentally Smart Nitrogen (ESN), a polymer-coated urea fertilizer, for wheat production in northwest Ohio. A medium maturity wheat variety was planted into soybean stubble with 5 nitrogen treatments applied at green-up: urea, ESN, and blends with 25%, 50%, and 75% ESN mixed with urea. Grain yield was highest for urea and blends with at least 50% urea. ESN alone yielded less than urea but had a higher test weight. The number of heads was lower for ESN than urea. ESN may be a viable nitrogen source when blended with at least 50% urea.
This document describes a study demonstrating how managing hay feeding can build soil fertility without commercial fertilizers. Over two years, hay was unrolled across demonstration fields rather than feeding in the same area each time. Soil samples showed that phosphorus increased by 22 lbs/A and potassium increased by 172 lbs/A in year 1, and phosphorus increased again by 22 lbs/A and potassium by 148 lbs/A in year 2. By spreading nutrients from the hay and livestock waste over larger areas, soil fertility was increased without purchasing commercial fertilizers, saving producers money and preventing the accumulation of phosphorus and potassium in small areas.
1) The document evaluates two commercial precision agriculture software packages for their ability to automate the process of designing and analyzing on-farm research trials.
2) As an example, the document describes how one software was used to design a study comparing fertilizer recommendation strategies using soil sampling grids to lay out plots.
3) Yield data from the plots was analyzed in the software using buffers to isolate yield values within each plot. No significant yield differences were found between the fertilizer treatments in the example field.

1) The study evaluated management strategies for the southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) in cotton production in Appling County, Georgia.
2) Treatments included planting a partially resistant variety (PHY 367B2RF) with and without a seed treatment nematicide (AVICTA Complete Cotton), and fumigating plots of both varieties with Telone II.
3) Results showed that fumigation with Telone II provided the greatest benefits, including reduced root damage, higher yield (413 lbs/acre more), and gin turnout compared to non-fumigated plots.
This document summarizes a 3-year study comparing wheat yields using swine finishing manure versus urea as a spring fertilizer. The study found:
1) Wheat yields were not statistically different between surface applied manure, incorporated manure, and urea applications across four fields over three years.
2) Using swine manure provided similar yields as urea and saved farmers $70 per acre compared to purchased urea.
3) Applying manure to growing wheat results in better nutrient utilization and less nutrients escaping fields compared to applying to dormant fields.
A study evaluated using commercially available solar thermal panels designed for swimming pools to heat a greenhouse and extend the growing season. An 800-gallon insulated water tank heated by 5 solar panels maintained the greenhouse at 50°F. The system produced over 3 million BTUs of heat during the study period and required 1.6 million additional BTUs from a propane backup heater. The solar system cost $2,000 and provided over $150 in annual savings on propane, resulting in a payback period of 13 years.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
