Modeling Soil Phosphorus Management
2013-04-12 00:56:00| National Hog Farmer
Source: Agricultural Research magazine The U.S. Department of Agricultures Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is looking for ways to upgrade the Phosphorus Index, a simple management tool developed during the 1990s to gauge the risk of phosphorus losses from agricultural fields. In developing a national nutrient-management policy, NRCS allowed states to modify the original indexa matrix of source and transport factors that contribute to phosphorus losswith inputs to account for local variations in soils, climate, management and water quality goals. read more

Enviropigs Reduce Environmental Phosphorus
2013-03-14 21:52:00| National Hog Farmer
Source: American Society of Animal Science A research team at the University of Guelph has developed a new line of transgenic Enviropigs. The new line of pigs is called the Cassie line, and it is known for passing genes on more reliably than a previous genetic line. Enviropigs have genetically modified salivary glands, which help them digest phosphorus in feedstuffs and subsequently excrete less phosphorus into the environment. read more
