Forage and Grasslands Mailing Groups Subscribers:
Greetings!
This note is to announce the creation of a forage quality mailing
group; forage-quality-mg@oes.orst.edu
For a number of years now, I've been interested in coming to some
"meeting of the minds" regarding energy prediction from forage
quality predictors. This is of particular interest to me in my
Extension Forage Specialist responsibilites. At the recent AFGC
conference in Lancaster, PA, John Moore discussed various energy
estimators. This got me thinking that we need a forum for discussing
these issues with forage and animal science researchers and others.
With the upcoming Forage Quality conference to be held in Lincoln, NE
in a couple weeks, John Moore and I discussed the desirability of
having a mailing group created for exchange of forage quality
discussions. Since the discussions might be of only marginal
interest to a number of subscribers to the current mailing groups,
I've created this one to discuss these issues.
We plan to announce the availability of the mailing group at the FQ
conference.
If you are interested in participating in forage quality discussions
(in particular related to predictions for meeting animal requirments
from quality estimators), please send me a note and I'll add you to
the list. Alternately, you could subscribe yourself by sending the
following one line message to: almanac@oes.orst.edu
subscribe putyouremailaddresshereinlowercase
*** PLEASE NOTE: send the request to almanac@oes.orst.edu and not
to this or any other mailing group. (It get's annoying to folks on
the mailing list to have requests to subscribe flooding their inbox.)
Thank you. Hope to converse with many of you on this topic.
