Extractions: Barns of North Dakota The "Barns of North Dakota" exhibit is featured at the Lower Level Gallery of the NDSU Library from August 2 to November 7, 1999. The exhibit is free and open to the public. The center piece of farm operations, the barn evolved out of a need for animal shelter, grain and feed storage, and machinery protection. The Barns exhibit highlights architectural styles and different functions of barns in North Dakota. Though time and weather have reduced their numbers, North Dakota's barns offer lofty profiles that are testaments to pioneer fortitude, ethnic settlement, national trends, and agricultural reform. During the settlement period of single crop farming, barn architecture was dominated by the large implement sheds and massive barns that housed the animals and equipment necessary to harvest wheat. As the state's agricultural base began to diversify after the turn of the century, a number of new barn types emerged to address the particular needs of animals and crops. The introduction of dimension or pre-cut lumber revolutionized the building industry. The increase in rail lines into sparsely wooded states like North Dakota made pre-cut lumber an attractive building material.

http://www.smr.herefordshire.gov.uk/education/tudor/BARNS AND FARMBUILDINGS.htm

Extractions: Few farm buildings in Herefordshire survive from the Tudor period. In the 17 th century a few planned farm yards began to emerge. The ideal was to have buildings on four sides of a square yard, but many farms did not have enough buildings to make up four sides. Instead, buildings were added and extended when required. Such randomly built farm yards can be very attractive. The author Geoffrey Grigson describes the effect of such an uncontrived farm yard in very poetic terms: "if one stands back, and looks at the whole assembly of the farm and its buildings, at their arrangements one against another, their placing in the landscape if one considers them in time as well as spatially, in their kinship to generation after generation of farm workers and manorial lords, and land lords, one must again realise how little this agreeableness has come by conscious effort.

http://nysparks.state.ny.us/field/fsb/barns.htm

Extractions: Electronic Media Links Legislation In order to qualify for an income tax credit equal to 25% of the cost of rehabilitating historic barns the following rules apply: - it must be a barn (defined as being built to house farm equipment, livestock or agricultural products). Buildings built for or converted to residential use are not eligible. - the barn must meet the tax definition of income-producing (farming, rental, office, commercial). - it must have been built or placed in agricultural service before 1936. Please note that Register-listed barns built after 1936 do not qualify for the New York State Historic Barns Tax Credit, even though they are officially designated as historic. - the rehabilitation cannot "materially alter the historic appearance" of the barn. That is it cannot change or destroy the important characteristics that make the building identifiable as a historic barn. - only costs incurred after January 1, 1997 are eligible. For barns built before 1936 that are not listed on the State Register of Historic Places, the owner will self-certify the work on the tax form. For properties listed individually or as contributing components of listed districts, the owner must submit the project to OPRHP for certification. This form will be similar to that used for the Federal Investment Tax Credit, however there will be no processing fee and the Secretary of the Interior's Standards will not be used. Owners who choose to meet the Standards as well may qualify for an additional income tax credit of 20% under the federal program.

Obsolete pesticides left and forgotten in unused barns and other farm buildings can pose a danger to cattle and other livestock.
http://ces.ca.uky.edu/lee/anr/Old Pesticides in Unused Barns.htm

Extractions: Can Threaten Livestock Health Obsolete pesticides left and forgotten in unused barns and other farm buildings can pose a danger to cattle and other livestock. If some of these old chemical products are ingested, cattle can get sick or even die. Weve had instances this year in Kentucky where cattle have died after finding an old bag of pesticide or a spill, and then eating the contents or licking the soil, said Roy Smith, veterinary toxicologist for the University of Kentucky Livestock Disease Diagnostic Center. The odor or taste of some products can be attractive to animals. Ingestion of just a small amount could, depending on the toxin, have a significant effect on the animal. Smith said this could lead to a substantial economic loss for the farmer. Even if the animal just gets sick, there are certain toxins that would prevent it from being sold for several months, Smith said. For example, if you get a chlorinated hydrocarbon in an animal there are laws about the levels you can have in it. So if youve got an animal at market weight and then have to go on feeding it for another six months, thats a fairly expensive proposition. Often, the person who stored the products is no longer around and the current owner or renter has no idea the pesticides are present.

Winter Life On A Dairy Farm

Extractions: Winter Life on a Dairy Farm Farming is a year-round, full-time job. Even when the fields are buried under 12 inches of snow, there is plenty to keep a farm family busy. Ken Nobis has been a dairy farmer all his life. He grew up on the dairy farm he now co-owns with his brother, Larry, in St. Johns. Today, the farm consists of an 800-head dairy herd, 1,100 acres of corn and 550 acres of alfalfa (used for animal feed), and 1,000 acres of soybeans and 100 acres of wheat, sold as cash crops. Almost all of the feed for the animals is grown and stored on the farm. Ken's son, Kerry, is also involved in the family's farming operation. It takes 20 employees to run this 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week operation, and milking the cows is only one of the many chores necessary to manage this well-run farm. There are about 700 cows in the milking herd at any one time. The cows are milked twice every day, at 2:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. It takes about nine hours to milk all the cows. The average cow in the milking herd weighs 1,400 pounds and produces 75-80 pounds of milk for a total of 53,000 to 55,000 pounds each day. In addition to milking, the animals need to be fed and watered. There are six groups of cows on the farm, each in a different stage of lactation; they're fed a total mixed ration, based on their stage of milk production. The feed is a mixture of corn, soybeans and hay, with added vitamins and minerals. Ken uses computer software developed at Michigan State University to formulate rations specific to the needs of each group.
