SINERGITAS FILSAFAT DAN AGAMA BAGI MASYARAKAT DI ERA KONTEMPORER
Authors: Jalil Mat
Published: July 2020

Sinergitas filsafat dan agama dua hal prinsip hidup setiap orang untuk bersungguh sunguh Berfilsafat bukanlah merupakan pekerjaan yang setiap saat dapat saja  dimulai dan yang semauanya dapat dihentikan,berfilsafat  lebih merupakan suatu mentalitas berpikir suatu sikap dan penyesuaian pribadi yang dibiasakan secara perlahan-lahan dan dengan susah payah sehingga oleh karena itu menjadi milik kita secara tetap,belajar berfilsafat belajar membuka diri dan bersedia untuk itu (membuka diri), sedamgkanberagama atau berkeyakinan adalah suatu fitrah bagi manusia.  Hal ini bertolak dari kesadaran manusia akan ketidak-berdayaan dirinya dan adanya sesuatu yang transenden yang patut diunggulkan. Agama, sebagai pegangan hidup manusia, tentu tidak hanya berhenti sebagai pemikiran ideal belaka, melainkan, seiring perjalanan waktu, harus diterjemahkan dalam bingkai realitas kehidupan manusia. Agama kemudian mencari posisinya yang apresiatif terhadap realitas, namun tanpa mereduksi prinsip-prinsipnya
Bimbingan Agama Islam Dalam Meningkatkan Ketenangan Jiwa Warga Binaan Di Lembaga Pemasyarakatan

Humans are the most perfect creatures that God created compared to others, because humans have thoughts and feelings that other creatures do not have. God revealed Islam as a guide for humans so they would not be easily lost. Religion is a benchmark for someone to do an act, because in religion there are rules that God gives in living life. The rules are not limited to human relations with God, but the rules of relations between humans and relations with their environment. Symptoms of insecurity in one's soul are easily anxious, fearful, emotional overflowing and uncontrollable, so that he cannot be friends with himself or with other people. Someone needs a mentor in the process of self-recognition and religion. It takes a variety of processes to get to know the religion of Islam, namely with the help of a counselor who provides an understanding that can be accepted by the person so that it becomes a reference in life, then someone who has a calm soul is protected from symptoms of mental disorders. Good religious formation, theoretically will produce good results for humans. Likewise religious guidance for good female prisoners will also give birth to the character of prisoners for themselves and the community. However, the phenomena found are still some of those who were netted in the same case several times, which are clearly prohibited by religious and community norms

The development of Islam in its history was built with various kinds of problems that support the continuity of its teachings to convey to the people, and not a few often these problems are often also decorated with romantic challenges that must be passed in reaching the peak of its power. At the time of the Prophet Muhammad among the problems that existed was the existence of Arabian traditions at that time full of heresy, wrath and tyranny or better known as the era of jahilliyah, and many other munkar acts carried out by the Arabs in the era before da'wah Islam emerged. Reading the situation of the Arab nation so that this problem caused the Prophet Muhammad to begin his missionary journey by bringing the vision of '' liutammimamakarimulakhlak '' perfecting human morals especially at that time to glory, namely the formation of noble human behavior in order to realize a new civilization order well.the life of the Indonesian people, besides the word religion, also known as the word ad-din which comes from Arabic and the religious word from the European language. When viewed from the origin, "religion" actually comes from the Sanskrit words a and gam. A = no, and gam = leave. So, the word means "do not go away", "stay in place", "lasting", is inherited from generation to generation. Religion does have this nature. There are others who say that religion means the text or scripture, and religions do have scriptures

Current education is not only in the form of formal education in schools. In its development, there is a Homeschooling Institution which is a school solution for students who have limited time, or have difficulty socializing with people. No different from formal schools in general, in homeschooling is also felt to require a special service program to develop students' social skills. The program referred to in this case is the Social Personal Guidance Program. In formal schools, this program becomes part of the Guidance and Counseling Program which is carried out by the Guidance and Counseling Teacher. In this study, researchers used a qualitative approach with the Case Study method conducted at the Homeschooling Institute. This research was conducted to see the Social Personal Guidance Program that is run to develop the Social Skills of Homeschooling Students. The results of this study, researchers see the Social Personal Guidance Program is run by Homeschooling institutions with several methods in the form of activities. The social tutoring program that has been run by a Homeschooling institution also looks very helpful to students developing their social skills.

Kebebasan berkomunikasi dan berpendapat di dunia maya menimbulkan beragam masalah salah satunya hoaks. Parahnya informasi hoaks yang tersebar cenderung berbau SARA, fitnah, dan provokatif yang tak jarang menimbulkan seseorang berurusan dengan hukum. Keterbukaan dan mudahnya mengakses informasi membuat tidak sedikit masyarakat yang langsung men-share informasi tanpa membaca sumber lain ataupun mencari tahu kebenarannya. Banyak orang yang tidak menyadari dampak luar biasa dari berita bohong tersebut. Saat ini, media digital didominasi pemuda millenial yang merupakan “digital natives”. Terwujudnya Indonesia emas 2045 merupakan bentuk integrasi-interkoneksi berbagai lapisan masyarakat, budaya, serta berbagai macam sumber daya yang ada. Jika generasi ini tidak diberikan amunisi yang kuat untuk menangkal serangan hoaks, maka ditakutkan jargon “Indonesia Emas 2045” hanyalah angan belaka. Menjadi generasi yang melek teknologi dan faham pemanfaatanya tidaklah cukup, dibutuhkan pula etika berkomunikasi. Generasi GREAT (Get, Read, Tabayyun) Beretika merupakan aktualisasi dari QS. al-Hujurat ayat 6 yang diharapkan dapat menangkal serangan dan dampak dari hoaks tersebut. Secara eksplisit, al-Qur’an telah memberikan tuntunan untuk menyikapi hoaks yang diintegrasikan dengan zaman kekinian sebagai upaya mewujudkan Indonesia Emas 2045.

Elongate hemlock scale, an exotic scale insect pest of Christmas trees and other conifers
Authors: Dale Adam G. , Birdsell Travis , Sidebottom Jill
Published: July 2020

Elongate hemlock scale, Fiorinia externa Ferris (Hemiptera: Diaspididae), is an armored scale insect native to Japan and eastern Asia. This insect was first documented in the United States in 1908 in Queens, NY, and has since spread throughout most of the eastern United States. Though the primary hosts of the pest, hemlocks and firs, do not occur in Florida, there are concerns that elongate hemlock scale coming into the region on cut Christmas trees may disperse and establish on conifers that do occur in Florida. Of specific interest are two endangered species, Florida torreya (Torreya taxiflora) and Florida yew (Taxus floridana), which are native to a small region in northwestern Florida. Also of concern are Florida forestry species, Florida Christmas tree species, and species used for ornamental plantings in Florida. What can Florida do to protect its native conifers and farmed trees from the elongate hemlock scale?

Rodenticides are pesticides designed to kill rodents, primarily mice and rats. However, rodents are not the only species that can be poisoned by rodenticides. Practically any mammal, including humans, can suffer severe effects from unintentional exposure to rodenticides. Rodenticides vary widely in the hazard they present even though they are all designed to kill animals that are physiologically comparable to humans. This new 4-page publication of the UF/IFAS Pesticide Information Office addresses those hazards for rodenticides currently registered in Florida. Written by Frederick M.

ABSTRACT The success of a leader can be seen from the ability of a leader to be the trigger he leads by creating conducive working conditions so as to increase progress and increase capacity which results in a positive influence on human resources led in running work in the direction of achieving organizational goals. This study uses moderating variables of management accounting systems, business strategies and environmental uncertainties that can encourage leadership styles for optimal managerial performance. This study uses hyphotheses testing study with a method of collecting data through questionnaires distributed to respondents managers at pharmaceutical distributors spread across Sidoarjo and Surabaya. This study resulted that leadership style had a significant effect on managerial performance, but for variable interactions (moderation) of business strategies, management accounting systems and environmental uncertainties did not provide a moderating effect on the relationship of leadership style to managerial performance. This is because pharmaceutical distributors are an agency that has an optimal business strategy and management accounting system. The environmental uncertainty of companies engaged in this sector also does not have a significant impact on the sustainability of the organization, because medical needs, whether medicine or medical devices, are a major need for the health unit and the Indonesian community, of course.Keywords: leadership style, business strategy, management accounting system, environmental uncertainty, managerial performance

Ensaio sobre Estelionato Sentimental: a possibilidade de responsabilização civil em razão da exploração econômica nas relações de namoro
Authors: Souza Nathalia Verônica Pires de , Dias Luciano Souto
Published: July 2020

A pesquisa convida à reflexão sobre a possibilidade de responsabilização civil diante da ocorrência de exploração econômica nas relações de namoro, temática de inegável relevância, porém, pouco explorada no direito contemporâneo. É de se esperar que o período de namoro seja marcado por relação de lealdade e confiança entre os namorados, contudo, tornou-se comum o desrespeito a essas valorosa premissas, sobretudo diante de condutas que evidenciam intuito lucrativo, o que poderá, inclusive, justificar a provocação da tutela jurisdicional. À vista de tais observações, o presente ensaio aborda o estelionato sentimental, amparado em preceitos de caráter moral, jurídico-normativas e principiológicas, notadamente com ênfase nos princípios da dignidade da pessoa humana, boa-fé objetiva e afetividade, buscando, doravante, demonstrar os pressupostos para a configuração da possível responsabilidade civil. A pesquisa permite constatar que, uma vez configurado o estelionato sentimental e configurados os pressupostos legais, há possibilidade de responsabilização civil daquele que explorar economicamente as relações de namoro.

Thalassa, "Confusion of the tongues", "The unwelcome child and his death-instinct": Sándor Ferenczi's unfolding model of trauma
Authors: Harris Adrienne E.
Published: July 2020

In this article, I trace the evolution and unfolding meanings and use of Ferenczi's model of trauma as it appears in his work on sexual abuse, on war trauma, and on early neglect. Some are works of quite long gestation and some written and published in the context of immediate circumstances, for instance, his paper on war neurosis. Ferenczi's work is seen as an influence on the psychoanalytic study of somatic states, on early gaps in psychic structure and in early and adult trauma.
Depression is a thirty-ton whale … and it sings in the wrong key
Authors: Taransaud David
Published: July 2020

Since the late 1980s, marine biologists have been tracking a solitary whale who sings at a frequency that no other whale can hear. For over three decades it has roamed the North Pacific Ocean, calling out to no one. Soon after the popular press picked up the story, the plight of the loneliest whale in the world captured the heart of the public. Almost overnight it became a cultural icon and a cypher for the feelings of millions of people who feel alone and on a different wavelength from others. The World Health Organization confirms that loneliness is becoming a worldwide epidemic, and depression is now the leading cause of ill health and disability. At the time of writing it is affecting over 300 million people, and, like the lonely whale, most of them suffer in silence. Despite mass media campaigns attempting to increase emotional literacy, the general opinion is that depression is ugly and unsexy; it does not draw an audience. So, in a culture where vulnerability is all too often associated with weakness, it feels safer to hide beneath a fake smile, and insist nothing is wrong when really nothing is right. The fear of ridicule compels silence, and silence compounds social isolation.
This article argues that loneliness and darkness are what the lost soul needs in order to find its way back home. It invites us to think differently about depression, not as a shameful illness that must be damped down by pills, talked out of, or anaesthetised with alcohol, but as a doorway to self-realisation and deeper intrapersonal intimacy.

Published: July 2020

Los inhibidores industriales más utilizados para disminuir la corrosión son aquellos que contienen heteroátomos (tales como N, S, P, O), provocando daños al ambiente, por lo cual se ha optado por alternativas naturales. Los inhibidores verdes son una alternativa amigable para el medio ambiente, ya que nos permiten disminuir ciertos problemas que están afectando nuestro planeta, mediante el uso excesivo de los productos químicos. Esta investigación consiste en la comparación de inhibidores verdes a base de frutas (aguacate y manzana verde) versus los inhibidores tradicionales. El diseño de este estudio es experimental, con tres tratamientos y un control. Los tratamientos consistieron de tres tipos de inhibidores verdes y un inhibidor de uso industrial. Los inhibidores verdes fueron preparados respectivamente, con los siguientes materiales naturales:  pulpa de aguacate, extracto de la cascara de manzana verde y pulpa de la manzana verde.  Con estos 3 tipos de inhibidores verdes se pudo estudiar los niveles de corrosión en los metales, mediante la pérdida de peso presentada en las láminas de acero al carbono A36. Estas placas metálicas fueron expuestas a un ambiente marino y a un ambiente controlado en el laboratorio. Al finalizar nuestra investigación pudimos apreciar que el inhibidor verde a base de la pulpa de aguacate fue el más efectivo, ya que pudo contrarrestar con mayor eficiencia la velocidad de corrosión en las placas metálicas. Si bien, no tienen un porcentaje de efectividad como el inhibidor industrial, pero si puede ser utilizado como alternativa para mitigar el proceso de corrosión.

PATTERN OF HERBAGE GROWTH DURING LACTATION AND LEVEL OF HERBAGE MASS AT LAMBING: THEIR SIGNIFICANCE TO ANIMAL PRODUCTION
Authors: Bircham J.S.
Published: July 2020

On most New Zealand sheep farms continuous stocking is practised for the period lambing to weaning. Levels of herbage mass are frequently low both before and after lambing and the high demands of the lactating ewe often results in these low levels being maintained until weaning. Low levels of herbage mass depress herbage growth, herbage intake and animal liveweight gain. A simple simulation model was used to integrate the effects of herbage mass at lambing, pattern of herbage growth during lactation and stocking rate into production functions of animal performance versus stocking rate. These functions demonstrate the necessity at high stocking rates for herbage mass levels to be at least 1000 kg DM/ha at the beginning of lambing if the detrimental effects of prolonged periods of low herbage mass on both herbage and animal production are to be minimised. Keywords: Animal production, herbage growth rates, herbage mass, production functions.
PASTURE ESTABLISHMENT ON EAST COAST NORTH ISLAND HILL COUNTRY
Authors: Arnst B.J. , Park O.L.
Published: July 2020

Large areas of North Island hill country are producing below potential as a result of low fertility and poor pasture composition. Removal of undesirable species and replacement with a higher producing pasture is essential for increased productivity but is difficult to achieve. A development programme is described where the use of glyphosate in close association with oversowing and stock management has allowed rapid pasture establishment, marked increase in carrying capacity and a quick return on investment.

LIME AND PHOSPHORUS REQUIREMENTS FOR HILL COUNTRY YELLOW-BROWN EARTHS
Authors: Edmeades D.C. , Feyter C. , O'Connor M.B.
Published: July 2020

Three fertiliser trials on hill country yellow-brown earths are discussed, The results show that on a newly sown ryegrass (Lolium perenne) white clover (Trifolium repens) Pasture 90% maximum pasture production was achieved at an Olsen P level of 13-15 ppm. On a reverted browntop (Agrostis tenuis) pasture an Olsen P concentration of at least 25 ppm was required for 90% maximum production. Reasons for this difference are discussed. Liming increased pasture dry matter production on all sites and the largest increases in production occurred at low (1.25 t/ha) rates. There was no evidence that liming enhanced P availability and therefore lime and P requirements for these soils should be considered independently. Phosphorus applications generally increased legume production but the effects of lime were variable. On the Mahoenui soil liming increased grass growth at the expense of the legume component but on the Marua soils liming increased the legume content. An explanation for this is suggested. The practical implications of these results are discussed. Keywords: lime, phosphorus, fertiliser requirements, yellow brown earths, hill country, pasture production, pasture composition, ryegrass, white clover, browntop.
CHEMICALS FOR PASTURE RENOVATION AND IMPROVEMENT OF HERBAGE QUALITY
Authors: Leonard W.F. , Bruce S.J. , Russell A.J. , Cook M.R.
Published: July 2020

Research into chemical pasture renovation was pioneered by NZ scientists in the 1960's but the technique was not widely adopted at that time. Subsequent work has confirmed that white clover (Jrifolium repens L.) is a poor competitor against browntop (Agrostis capillaris L.) for phosphate. This has implications regarding nitrogen fixation. Pasture renovation also provides an opportunity to introduce preferred pasture grasses, free of competition from resident grass species. White clover is now recognised as a high-quality feed for livestock. Work is reviewed showing the correlation between liveweight of ewe hoggets and subsequent breeding performance and that white cloverdominant pasture was superior i0 ryegrass-dominant pasture for flushing breeding ewes. In field-scale testing, the plant growth regulator mefluidide suppressed seedhead formation in pasture grasses and gave substantial, though regionally variable, liveweight gains in lambs, beef cattle and deer. In limited evaluation with dairy cows changes in pasture herbage have not been matched by improved milk or milkfat yield.

The pasture and animal productivity of established high producing pastures in the Waikato has been compared with newly sown pastures based on recently released herbage cultivars. The established pastures were a mixture of Nui perennial ryegrass, Paspalum dilatatum and Htiia white clover. The new cultivars tested were Ellett perennial ryegrass, Wana cocksfoot and Roa tall fescue, each sown with Pitau white clover. The main advantages of the new pastures containing Ellett were in increased autumn and winter herbage production, higher stock carrying capacity and lower hay requirements. The Ellett pastures had higher ryegrass content and lower weed levels than the older pastures. Wana cocksfoot when grown with Ellett ryegrass increased in content over the experimental period, especially under less intense grazing pressure although some frost damage was evident in winter wi!h a possible lowering of herbage nutritive value of the mixture. Tall fescue pastures only showed occasional merit in summer-autumn periods under the less intensive grazing regime. Keywords: established pastures, Nui ryegrass, Ellett ryegrass, Wana cocksfoot, Paspalum dilatatum, Huia white clover, Pitau white clover, Roa tall fescue, steer liveweight gains, seasonal herbage yields, herbage yields, herbage botanical composition.
EFFECT OF SHEEP GRAZING REGIME ON PERFORMANCE OF MATUA PRAIRIE GRASS
Authors: Alexander R.T.
Published: July 2020

Persistency and productivity of irrigated 'Grasslands Matua' prairie grass pastures were measured under four sheep grazing regimes, frequent or infrequent (grazed 3 weekly or 6 weekly) coupled with lax or severe defoliation (grazed to 7.5 cm or 2.5 cm). Matua was also compared with 'Grasslands Nui' and Yates 'Ellett' perennial ryegrasses under frequent severe grazing. These are interim results from two experiments sown in successive years. There were few consistent differences among grazing treatments of Matua pastures. However, the Matua content of pastures tended to be less under frequent grazing. In the third year of Experiment 1, infrequent grazing to 2.5 cm resulted in significantly hlgher annual production than other Matua treatments. 'Eiiett' ryegrass tended to outyield 'Grasslands Nui' in the first year but subsequently there was little difference in yields. The dry matter production of 'Ellett ryegrass was not significantly different from the best Matua treatment in any year. More herbage was lost through trampling and decay in the infrequently grazed Matua pastures than in the frequently grazed Matua or ryegrass pastures. After three years, all Matua pastures contained more weeds and more volunteer grasses than did ryegrass pastures. Keywords: prairie grass, Matua, ryegrass, Nul, Ellett, grazing management, lax grazing, severe grazing, irrigation.
AUTUMN SAVED PASTURE IN A HIGH FROST ENVIRONMENT

Herbage mass, moisture content and in vitro OMD of autumn saved ryegrasslwhite clover pasture grown on irrigated flats in the Upper Waitaki Basin were monitored over four winters from 1979-82. During the winter of 1981 and 1982 the effect of closing date and nitrogen application was examined. In addition Merino ewes were all-grasswintered from mid June to mid September without supplements on a feed allowance of 1.2 kg DMlhd.day to determine effect on liveweight. Mean herbage mass and OMD loss from mid May to early September were 25 and 13% respectively and the moisture content of the pasture decreased from 73 to 45%. Herbage mass by mid May was less for March and April than for February closing, although for March closing this deficit was offset through use of nitrogen. Approximately 50% of the sward was frosted by mid September with OMD of the f-m_.c-.tAcd rnwn,rti.nIVn.I IC,*"O"/. ,v, .-vrvrmlllnv-~-r~C~.ul-l~ +L-U k0-1.a.y.

INSECT RESISTANCE, ANIMAL TOXICITY AND ENDOPHYTE-INFECTED GRASS
Authors: Gaynor D.L. , Rowan D.D.
Published: July 2020

Endophyte infection is widespread in grasses and in many instances is associated with insecf resistance. This resistance appears to be due to chemical components produced in the infected grasses. Ryegrass, infected with Acremonium folioe endophyte contains peramine, a feeding deterrent to stem weevil, Listronotus bonariensis. Other examples of endophyte-associated insect resistance are discussed and the mechanisms of this insect resistance are briefly compared with those mechanisms implicated in producing animal toxicity problems. Keywords: endophyte, insect resistance, ryegrass, tall fescue, insect feeding deterrents, animal toxins, alkaloids.
FACIAL ECZEMA - PROBLEMS AND SUCCESSES IN CONTROL
Authors: Towers N.R.
Published: July 2020

Facial eczema is the most important mycotoxin affecting New Zealand lIvestock. It is a partrcular problem in the lower lying warmer and morster areas of the northern North Island where conditions are favourable to rapid fungal growth and sporulation during autumn. In severe years animal deaths and depressed production can lead to losses exceeding $60 mlllion, average losses are estimated to exceed $20 million anually. Production losses. especially despressions in ewe fertility, can occur in the absence of clinical symptoms so most farmers grossly underestimate the financial losses Inflicted by this disease. Research has led to a number of control methods includmg the identification and awldance of toxic pastures, fungicides, zinc dosing and selection for more resistant stock. However these are not widely accepted by the farming industry because of costs, high labour requirements and a disinclination to disturb normal management practices. Keywords: facial eczema, control, productlon losses, resistance, zinc, fungicides.
ALTERNATIVE SULPHUR FERTILISERS IN NEW ZEALAND
Authors: Boswell Cc , Swanney B.
Published: July 2020

Interest in high analysis sulphur (S) fertilisers is centred on elemental S which is generally mixed with other materials for safety reasons and to improve effectiveness. Central to the effectiveness of S fertilisers is the rate of oxidation to sulphate-S (SO4S)) for plant uptake. Oxidation rates increase as particle fineness increases. The distribution of S particle sizes in mixtures therefore affects the effectiveness of the fertiliser in any environment. Rates of oxidation vary between environments and thus different S particle size distributions suit different environments. Currently the choice of alternative commercial available S fertilisers is restricted to screened 'agricultural's" and mixtures of S" with superphosphate. Of these, molten mixed S superphosphate is the most suitable material for most environments but especially where S oxidation is slow. Commercial production of alternative S" fertiliser mixtures in New Zealand is imminent. Mixtures of S and sodium bentonite offer the possibility of preparing fertilisers to suit different environments. Granulated ground S" mixed with bentonite clay can be expected to release SO4-S more slowly but this has advantages where leaching of sulphate is likely. Production of SO4-S from two improved Canadian S/bentonite materials is expected to be similar to or slower than that from granulated ground S. Two other imported products, S impregnated urea (20% S, 36%N) and 'Thiovit' (85%S) contain finely divided and ultra finely divided S" respectively. They are raptdly and very rapidly oxidised to sulphate and may have specialised uses in cropping and horticultural enterprises. Keywords: Sulphur fertilisers, elemental sulphur, sulphur/sodium bentonite, plant sulphate, oxidation rates
FUNGAL DISTRIBUTION AND LIVESTOCK DEFOLIATION PATTERNS IN PASTURE ECOSYSTEMS, AND THE DEVELOPMENT AND CONTROL OF DIETARY-DEPENDENT DISORDERS
Authors: Keogh R.G.
Published: July 2020

The fungal saprophytes, Pithomyces chartorum and Fusorium culmorum, have similar distribution patterns in grazed-pasture ecosystems. Spore loads (and toxin levels) of each are highest at the base of pastures and rapidly decline up the profile. But variation is considerable from site to site within a pasture, with the highest levels associated with high N (viz: urine-patch) sites. In vegetative tillers of ryegrass the fungal endophyte, Acremonium lolii, has a similar vertical distribution pattern to the above-mentioned saprophytes, the greatest concentration being in the leaf sheath component in the pasture base. It also develops better within ryegrass at high N sites. Grazed-pastures are not uniformly defoliated by livestock during summer and autumn - urine-patch sites are grazed more frequently and intensively and dung-patch sites less frequently and intensively than the remainder of a pasture, especially when set-stocked. The close grazing which occurs at urine-patch sites, especially in grass-dominant pastures can, therefore, contribute disproportionately to the acquisition of fungal toxins by livestock. Observations of field outbreaks and results of grazing experiments show that the risk of outbreaks of ryegrass staggers in sheep is greater under set-stocking and during the latter stages of defoliation of a pasture in a rotational system. When necessary defoliation, especially at urinepatch sites, and hence acquisition of fungal contaminants (and toxins), can be controlled adequately by a rapid rotation in which stock are moved daily. Moving stock less frequently does not control defoliation or the development of dietary-dependent disorders. Keywords: Pasture fungi, saprophytes, ryegrass endophyte, distribution patterns, feeding behaviour, toxin acquisition, dietary-dependent disorders, facial eczema, ryegrass staggers, ill-thrift, infertility, grazing management and control.
GRASSLAND FARMING IN NORTHLAND
Authors: Currie J.D.
Published: July 2020

Dairying, sheep and beef farming have financed the regional growth and development of Northland this century. There are now well over a million dairy and beef cattle grazed in the nine counties of the North Auckland peninsula, and with sheep approaching 3 million, total farm gate sales from pastoral industries, last year, were close to $400m. Dairying continues as the predominant revenue earner, contributing two thirds of this total.
DIMENSIONS AND MECHANISMS OF LAND USE CHANGE IN NORTHLAND
Authors: Moran Warren
Published: July 2020

Land use change has been commonplace in Northland during the 1970s and early 1980s. The region illustrates better than any other both the adjustments to pastoral farming and the diversification of land use that are observable in many parts of New Zealand. Most of the changes in land use are well known. The expansion of exotic forestry is visible and controversial, horticultural diversification has received considerable publicity, and the commercial potential of goat farming has also attracted attention in the region. The emergence of specialised beef farms, often in conjunction with part-time farming, has received less attention. Although the changes in land use are recognised, their extent and the processes by which they have come about are less well understood. This paper establishes the dimensions of the land use changes in Northland and identifies aspects of the decision making of the individuals and corporations involved in the changes. Much of the data on which this discussion is based are derived from a series of theses and research reports completedin the Department of Geography, University of Auckland, (Kearns 1982; Wheeler 1982; Anderson and Moran 1983; Kearns and Moran 1984; Hardy 1985; Revington 1984; Wheeler and Moran 1985; Maunier, Moran and Anderson 1985).
A "DROUGHT PROOF" EWE

The financial profitability of these sheep is dependant on the extra money obtained from the much bigger and more numerous lambs, because the dams clip about 32kg, or $5 worth of wool less than a longwool fleece. Compared with NZ's average Romney producing 4.5kg wool and 1 lamb, the Border Dorsets have produced 3.2kg wool and 1.33 lambs and each carcase weight is 2kg heavier.
METHODS FOR ESTIMATING PASTURE DRY MATTER ON DAIRY FARMS IN NORTHLAND
Authors: Piggot G.J.
Published: July 2020

Pasture dry matter (DM) estimates are used by dairy farmers and their advisers for feed planmng principally during April to September. The three primary estimates required are: average farm cover, pre-grazing herbage on offer, and post-grazing residue. Average farm cover can be approximated by averaging paddocks with the highest and lowest DM. Various 'short-cut' methods (pasture height, weighted disc, pasture 'probe') were evaluated during 1984 and have provided calibration equations for 'feed budgeting' of pre-calving feed. Such equations could be used for day-to-day feeding calculations during autumn to spring provided their limitabons are recognised.
