Dairying Trend Towards
Large Commercial Herds
When Mrs. O'Leary's cow kick
ed over the lamp that set Chicago
ablaze In 1871, some folks opined
that "the city is just no place for
a cow."
Others went even further and
said it didn't make sense to keep
only one covv in the first place.
Time will come, they argued,
when all cows will be managed
in large herds with dairying the
sole business of the operator. But
that time hasn't yet arrived, re
port Oregon State University
dairy specialist.
Dairying in Oregon today Is a
complex mixture of Century 21
and the 19th Century of Mrs.
O'Leary. Big, automated dairy
farms of 20'.) to 300 cow shart
the state's milk production with
7 204 families that ke.p only one
cow.
However, the trend to fewer
and bigger dairy farms is clearly
apparent with most of Oregon'
160,000 producing cows in so-called
commercial herds. More than
2200 Oregon farms reported herds
of 20 or more cows for the latest
agricultural census In 1959. Near
ly 600 farms had herds of more
than 50 cows. Average size of
herds in the Portland milk mar
keting area is now 45 cows.
All told, Oregon produced more
than one billion pounds of milk
In 1961 equal to more than one
half billion quarts and valued
in excess of $46 million. Many
millions of dollars were added to
this base figure in payrolls to
make butter, cheese, Ice cream
and other products and to put
iniik into containers for Oregon
stores and doorsteps.
How is this billion pounds of
milk used? In 1960, about one
half was used as fluid milk and
the other h&l'. went lor manufac
ture of dairy products, says Oscar
Hagg, OSU dairy products mar
keting specialist.
Biggest processed item was
butter made from nearly 235
million pounds of whole milk.
Cheese used 170 million pounds
of milk, and ice cream and other
frozen products required 90 mil
lion pounds. The reat went for a
variety of manufactured pro
ducts including cottage cheese,
evaporated ir.ilk, and dry milk.
Peak production and sales of
dairy products are expected this
month when Oregon dairymen
join with the nation in promoting
June Dairy Month the time
when lush, early summer pas
tures bring the heaviest flow of
milk.
Another nj'able dairy trend,
along with larger herds, is th
improved milk production capa
city of cows, report H. P- Ewalt
and Don E. Anderson, OSU exten
sion dairy specialist.
Comparative records of the
Oregon Dairy Herd Improvement
Association show that In 19 50
average annual production of
DHIA test cows was 8108 pounds
of milk and 380 pounds of butter
fat per cow. By 1961, production
had increased to 9,694 pounds ot
milk and 420 pounds of butterfat.
DHIA records also point up the
general shift in herd sizes. In
1950, Oregon had 637 herds on
DHIA testing for a total of 19,183
cows or an average size herd of
30 animals. By 1961, the number
of herds had decreased to 488,
but total number of cows was
25,735 for an average herd of 53.
Where is it all leading? Some
of the experts believe the time is
not far off when less than 1,000
farms will supply ail the dairy
products needed in the state.
Meanwhile, some 7,000 Oregonl
ans will set their alarm clocks
for tomorrow morning to go out
and milk one cow little con
cerned that they're a disappear
ing statistic.
One reason the courts don't
handle more drunken driving
cases the undertaker gets them
first.
Fact sheets listing 1962 weed
control recommendatio n s for
commercial vegetable and fruit
crops have been published by
Oregon State University Coopera
tive Extension Service and are
now available from county ex
tension offices.
The publications were prepared
by Dr. A. A. Duncan, extension
vegetable production specialist,
and Dr. Garvin Crabtree, assist
ant professor of horticulture.
The fact sheet for vegetables
covers weed control recommenda
tions for crops ranging from as
paragus to tomatoes. The recom
mendations for fruit crops in
clude berries, grapes and tree
fruits.
In Introducing the recommen
dations, the authors point out
that adequate weed control is
important for production of hih
yields of high quality vegetables.
Weeds compete witn crops lor
water, nutrients and light and
are often hosts for insects and
diseases.
The first line of defense
against weeds is good cultural
practices, the authors stress. In
using chemicals for weed control,
growers also should learn as
much as possible about the her
bicides they use, including infor
mation on evaporation loss,
movement with soil moisture,
and limitations on certain weed
species to aid in making the
most effective use of the control
programs listed in the fact
sheets.
