Farm Intern Taylor Burrell Week 5

July 2, 2018 by virginia.moerbe

Last week, I got up early to check all the herds while it was cooler. I had to check the main herd’s molasses and mineral bins and how much pasture, and the northwest and headquarters herd for hay and their molasses-mineral tubs. While checking the northwest herd, I caught the neighbor’s bull using his vomeronasal organ (underneath the upper lip of most mammals) to sense the pheromones in our cows across the fence.

Partnership Opportunities

Stiles Farm can run multiple projects at once thanks to the demonstration and research plot model. If you or your company would like to partner with Stiles Farm, we are looking for partnerships in long term conservation tillage and cover crop research, precision agriculture technologies, innovations in beef cattle production, the economics of small acreage horticulture production in the blacklands, and use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (drones) in agriculture production. For partnership ideas, contact Ryan Collett at (512) 898-2214 or rmcollett@ag.tamu.edu.
