Edad y dientes de los bovinos

El bovino al igual que las otras especies domésticas sufre un proceso evolutivo en su dentadura, el cual es necesario conocer para poder fijar su edad, debiéndose observar 5 periodos que corresponden a distintas etapas de su vida. Nacimiento de los dientes de leche : Esto depende de la precocidad de la raza pero por lo general se da en el primer mes de edad del animal. Rasamiento y nivelación de los dientes de leche: Esta en relación directa con el régimen alimentario al que ha sido sometido el ternero; si es destetado tarde el rasamiento va a ser más lento, si se desteta a edad temprana (4 – 5 meses), el rasamiento será más elevado. Existen muchas variaciones relacionadas al destete y alimentación del ternero, por lo tanto, se hace difícil establecer cuando razan y nivelan los dientes incisivos de leche. Nacimiento de los dientes permanentes: La erupción de las pinzas es a los dos años, de los primeros medianos a los tres años, de los segundos medianos a los cuatro y los e

Leaf Illustrations and Charts to Help Diagnose Plant Nutrient Deficiencies

For the farmer or gardener, it is important to be able to read your plant. The seasoned grower develops an intuitive sense over time in response to plant signals of stress. The key is observing and being able to notice unhealthy leaves, and developing the ability to understand what the plant’s leaf is telling you. Something to note is that a young leaf’s message differs from an old leaf’s message. In this post, I have assembled a number of good graphics to help you do just that. While there is some overlap between the illustrations, they should be helpful as a whole in helping you figure out your specific problem.

Healthier Soils Will Give Us - and the Planet -- a Healthier Century

You may not quite realize it, but the dirt beneath your feet is teeming with life. In any given tablespoon of soil, there may be more than 50 billion microbes - bacteria, fungi, nematodes, mites, and more. Ninety percent of all the organisms on earth live underground. In a handful of healthy soil, there is more biodiversity than there is among all the above-ground animals in the Amazon Basin. Until fairly recently, the human race has been largely uninformed about this vast ocean of uncatalogued life. Although farmers have always valued their soil and understood the importance of maintaining it, science offered little detail about the organic material within it, let alone how that material interacts with crops to give us our food. Now, however, advances in biotechnology have begun to exponentially advance our understanding. As a result, we are on the cusp of making major strides in sustainable agriculture that will benefit both humanity and our ecosystems. These advances are cl
