BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JULY 23, 2014 VOL. 97, NO. 15 COPYRIGHT 2014 Rising prices, local food movement bringing attention to Georgia's shrimp industry Brown shrimp, like these caught on a July 2 shrimp cruise aboard the Lady Jane off the coast of Brunswick, Ga., are one of two varieties common in Georgia waterways. Photo by Dallas Duncan By Dallas Duncan Editor's Note: This is the first installment in a series on Georgia's seafood industry. Next issue, learn about Georgia's wild- caught crabs, fish and shellfish. Robert Waters has been shrimping for roughly 60 of his 72 years. "It's in my blood, as the old shrimpers used to say," he said. "I've shrimped from the Carolinas to Texas. The Gulf is an entirely different type of shrimping than it is here. Gulf, you shrimp at night and you sleep in the daytime, where here it's reverse." Georgia's coastal waterways are home to two varieties of shrimp, white and brown, said John Wallace, marketing director for Wild Georgia Shrimp. White shrimp have a spring and fall crop and brown shrimp are the summer crop. "The white shrimp are really our money shrimp because you're getting two crops of it," Wallace said. White shrimp are what Randy Cuthrell of Valona, Ga., captain of the Judge shrimping vessel, specialize in. "The best eating shrimp in the world are Georgia wild white shrimp. Almost any chef will tell you that's the sweetest, highest quality shrimp anywhere," Cuthrell said. Georgia shrimpers begin their days at 3 a.m. Boats cannot trawl, or drag the bottom, until sunrise, so captains aim to get in the water in time to deploy the nets by sunup. They pull for two hours, empty and sort the catch and repeat the process four or five times each day, said Larry Credle, captain of the Lady Jane passenger shrimper out of Brunswick, Ga. Shrimp boats have a net between two trawl doors, which open up with water resistance. Federal regulations require that commercial shrimpers have excluder devices for turtles, fish and other sea life to escape the net before it is pulled on the boat, Wallace said. There is no regulation, however, on shrimp size. Most Georgia shrimp are the 26 to 30 per pound size, Wallace said. "Years ago the shrimping industry was deemed sustainable because of the lifespan of a shrimp. A shrimp only lives 13 months. He grows a size every new moon," Cuthrell said. The record year, 1995, pulled in 7.2 million pounds, said Patrick Greer, chief of marine fisheries with the Georgia Department of See SHRIMP, page 7 INSIDE THIS ISSUE Farmland rent or lease ads.........2 Farmland for sale ad form...........8 Fall pick-your-own form...............9 Bulletin calendar........................10 Notice Deadline to submit ads for the Aug. 20 issue is noon, Aug. 6. Technology, research draw hundreds to Expo Field Day By Dallas Duncan The 35th Sunbelt Agricultural Exposition Field Day drew more than 400 producers, Extension agents and academics to Moultrie, Ga., on July 10. The annual event serves as a preview to what will be on display during the Sunbelt Ag Expo in October, Executive Director Chip Blalock said. He said the turnout was a great crowd "thirsty for knowledge." Participants traveled through the demonstration fields on tractorpulled trams and heard from a number of companies displaying the latest and greatest in corn, cotton, peanut and soybean seeds, inoculants, irrigation and more. "The latest technology in those seed varieties that make them drought-tolerant, insectresistant and so forth, is what the farmers come to see and look at and start making planning in- tentions and decisions for 2015," Blalock said. A major draw for this year's field day was the aerial crop spray demonstration by Albany, Ga.-based Thrush Aircraft. After learning about the plants and spray products on the tram tour, dozens of producers saw firsthand how modern technology helps protect Georgia's row crops. "In the old days we called them crop dusters and many people still do, but believe me, there's nothing old or dusty about the aircraft you're going to see today," the company representative told viewers. "These aircraft are GPSguided and a highly productive member of the farmer's arsenal." Hearing about different seed inoculants such as those sprayed by the Thrush 510G in the demonstration and their relation to yield potential was a big draw for Stephanie Hollifield, county Extension coordinator and agriculture and natural resources agent for Brooks See EXPO, page 7 The aerial crop spraying demonstration put on by Albany, Ga.-based Thrush Aircraft was a highlight of the 2014 Sunbelt Agricultural Exposition Field Day in Moultrie, Ga., on July 10.

Black, Commissioner GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Leopold's Ice Cream Ice cream parlor pledges commitment to education, patriotism and delicious treats By Maggie Dudacek, summer intern Nothing is as American as kids and ice cream, according to the Leopold's Ice Cream website. Owner and operator Stratton Leopold took that to heart when he began the "I Pledge Project" during National Ice Cream Month in July 2010. The project rewards children across America for their patriotism by offering them free ice cream just for reciting the Pledge of Allegiance by memory, according to the website. However, children who recite the pledge do not get just any ice cream from Leopold's. They receive premium homemade ice cream that is prepared in historic Savannah, Ga. "Using the finest, freshest ingredients, we still craft Leopold's super premium ice cream the way Stratton's father did nearly 95 years ago," said Ferrara Carey, director of marketing and communications. "Our commitment to the arts and education in our community is second only to our commitment to extremely high quality products." Using its Georgia Grown membership, Leopold's is able to more effectively explore new sources for Georgia ingredients for its homemade ice creams, baked goods, soups, sandwiches and salads, as well as continue purchases of premium ingredients from other Georgia Grown members, Carey said. With almost 100 years of experience in the state's oldest city, Leopold's Ice Cream plays a major role in Georgia's culture and history. By incor- porating other Georgia Grown products into its foods and preparing them onsite, the ice cream parlor has been and will continue to be, according to the website, "a favorite for generations of Georgians."

So many Georgians can relate to this experience of tak- ing their first big trip away from home going to 4-H summer camp. Through these years in 4-H I've learned so much and developed into a better leader who is making PERRY the best better! Today, Georgia 4-H impacts 175,000 4-Hers from ages 9 to 19. Those are 175,000 catalysts for positive change in their clubs, communities, our country and their world! This week is State 4-H Congress and it is the week that 4-Hers have waited for, in some cases, their whole 4-H career. 4-Hers from around the state will come to Atlanta to compete in their project areas for 4-H Project Achievement. These 4-Hers chose a project (mine was Fruits, Vegetables and Nuts), where they researched a topic, wrote a speech on their topic and prepared presen- tation materials, memorized their speech and on top of it all put together a yearlong portfolio of work that they did in their project area, leadership, service and 4-H. 4-Hers who win first place this week will earn the tittle of Master 4-Her. State Leader Arch Smith told a group of 4-Hers once that less than 1 percent of 4-Hers will master in their projects. This week we compete, we reflect on another great 4-H year, prepare for an even better 4-H year and recognize our new Master 4-Hers not only in Project Achievement, but also through many other contests and judging events. We will see our Master Forestry team, 4-H Achievement Scholarship recipients and many more Master 4-Hers receive their recognition. 4-H is an organization where you will learn how to fail. It is also an organization where you learn how to try harder. It is an organization that teaches you determination to achieve your goals and to reach for new heights. 4-H is the same organization that rewards you after you learn how to fail, how to try harder after failure, how to be determined to achieve what you've failed at and eventually accomplish what you've previously failed at! This State Congress is a very special one for me, as it is my last congress and my last event as a 4-H club member. I look back on my time and I start to tear up. I see a boy who walked into his elementary school lunchroom to join 4-H to now the president of that organization. I can see myself being sad after I lost, and rejoicing with my 4-H agent and friends when I achieved my goals. I see someone who was bullied throughout school and who didn't think he had any friends to someone who has 175,000 of them. 4-H has been a life-changing thing for me. I grew up on a farm in rural Jeff Davis County outside of Hazlehurst, Ga. I have always been affected by agriculture and its impact on our state. After my parents separated, I became depressed and was bullied throughout my school career. 4-H was there for me with people who loved me and supported me. Anyone who has been in the 4-H program can relate to this family effect that 4-H offers. Because of 4-H, I took my first trip away from home; I flew in my first airplane; I taught my first class; I gave my first public speech; and I became the second president of Georgia 4-H from Jeff Davis County after 39 years. I am Oakley G. Perry, president of Georgia 4-H, and I am and always will be Georgia 4-H! Oakley Perry is the 2013 to 2014 president of Geor- gia 4-H.

GUEST COLUMN: Certified turfgrass: GCIA's blue tag means quality As you may know, agriculture is big business in our state actu- ally, it's the state's largest industry contributing more than $71 billion to Georgia's economy. And though the farm gate (or wholesale) value of Georgia crops, poultry and livestock tops $13 billion, the economic impact of the state's ur- ban agriculture industry is equally SKAGGS strong with more than $8 billion in sales, 7,000 companies and more than 80,000 employees. Many factors influence one's ability to grow, install and maintain healthy landscapes and turf areas, includ- ing a long growing season, adequate average rainfall, fertile land and a second-to-none land-grant university and Extension system. Additionally, landscape and turf pros also recognize the importance of readily-available, high-quality plant materials. Here in Georgia, the Georgia Crop Improvement Association is the organization that ensures turfgrass professionals and homeowners can purchase high-qual- ity seed and turfgrass, which are free of noxious weeds, genetically pure and guaranteed to germinate. GCIA is a nonprofit organization, operating as an agent for the University of Georgia. Certified seed and turfgrass are produced and increased under a limited generation concept that is supervised by GCIA. There are three classes of certified seed and turfgrass, foundation material which is pro- duced from breeder stock, registered material produced from foundation stock and certified material produced from registered stock. Each generation increase is field inspected by GCIA. Turfgrass certification is the only quality control offered for the protection of the sod buyer, as state and federal laws do not address vegetatively produced crops. GCIA's turfgrass growers produce "blue tag" certified sod, which is field-inspected at least three times yearly by knowledgeable inspectors. Each inspector is trained to recognize off-type plants, other crops, noxious and objectionable weeds, which can create unsightly and costly problems in turf. GCIA's inspection program ensures that your turfgrass was grown and inspected under a rigorous set of guidelines designed to promote ongoing varietal purity and uniformity. The Department's "certificate" should not be confused with the GCIA certified "blue tag certificate." The Department issues a certificate for "apparent freedom" from insects, diseases or other pests; however, this certificate in no way indicates varietal purity. When only the best will do, many landscape architects specify Georgia certified "blue tag" turfgrass on their projects. Whether you are a landscape contractor bidding a job or a homeowner tackling a do-it-yourself project, be sure to ask for Georgia Crop Improvement Association "blue tag" certified grass. The blue certificate assures you that the grass provided by your grower met a rigorous set of inspection criteria designed to promote high quality, true to variety and weed-free turfgrass. And remember, certified sod doesn't cost it pays! Billy Skaggs is the seed certification program man- ager for GCIA. GCIA publishes an annual Georgia Certified Turfgrass Directory, available free of charge to landscape and turf professionals.

As I'm sure you've picked up on from reading agriCULTURE during the past year, a lot of these hyper-pink leadership lessons can be translated into what we do here at the Market Bulletin office, and this training was no exception. The director who taught us referenced the King James Bible version of Mark 11:23, which reads, "For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." Aside from all the flowery language, this verse is telling us to not just say our goals, but to believe that we can achieve them and in doing so, we will indeed achieve that which we've set our minds to. It will take more than simply saying a goal to believe in it, however, so visual reminders are key. In the Mary Kay world, this includes lots of posterboard and tracking. In the Market Bulletin world, it involves our goals written out on the "dream board" hung up in our hallway, and hopefully some posters and fun visuals of our progress. July is the perfect time to set goals for the Market Bulletin. We've turned over a new leaf for the new fiscal year, and I'm setting our achievement deadline as June 30, 2015. In this training, the director told us to shout our goals from the rooftop so everyone can hear them. Well, since I a) don't have a key to get onto the Department rooftop and b) even if I did, I doubt I could yell loud enough so south Georgia could hear me, consider this column as me boldly, loudly declaring what the Market Bulletin is going to do in the next 12 months. i We will reach 50,000 subscribers. Our count as of July 15 is 40,502. What's that going to take? If each of you shares the opportunity to subscribe with one person during the next 12 months, and renew your subscription when that time comes, we will far exceed this goal. Easy, peasy. Y'all, we got this one in the bag. I can feel it! i Our website will be revamped. It'll be easier on the eyes, easier to navigate and will have full past issues available to share with the public, while saving the newest issues and advertising privileges for subscribers only. i Wholesale prices on Market Bulletin issues are coming soon. This is an option for Georgia groups that wish to share the Market Bulletin with guests at meetings, conventions, in goodie bags, etc. i Paid advertising will become available to commodity groups, Georgia Grown members and agriculture-related businesses. This one's going to take the most time to fully set up as we work with our printer, finance section and staff to determine the best course of action to offer this type of advertising and have invoices and payments completed in a timely manner. Y'all have been asking for this one for a while, and we are going to make it happen. The final goal I want to share with you is already in place, so our achievement is going to be consistently updating it according to plan with every issue. We officially have a YouTube channel! Now, you can not only read about Georgia's food, farm and fiber industries in the paper or blog, but you can see them in action. Each issue will have at least one complementary video online, and stories in the Market Bulletin will have the YouTube icon and website to denote there's something extra to check out. This is a work in progress, but we are so excited to offer this additional method of storytelling to our readers. It's going to take teamwork and a lot of saying and believing to reach these goals, but I have no doubt that we're going to do it. We'll keep you updated in future issues of the paper and on our social media sites as to our progress! Dallas Duncan is the editor of the Market Bulletin.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 23, 2014 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 PAGE 7 ARTY'S GARDEN: Include native plants in hummingbird gardens Spotted jewelweed flowers have a spur that holds nectar, making them appealing to hummingbirds, which the flowers depend on for pollination. It is probably not a coincidence that they bloom as ruby-throated hummingbirds begin their migration to Mexico. There are many flowers that attract hummingbirds, but sometimes Georgia native plants get left off the list of hummer favorites. That seems odd since hummingbirds had only natives before we started planting things from other parts of the world where hummingbirds do not exist. Here are some plants native to Georgia whose flowers attract hummingbirds: trumpet creeper, bee balm, coral honeysuckle, cardinal flower, spotted jewelweed, pale jewelweed, Eastern columbine, Texas or blood sage, Canada lily, Indian pink, red buckeye, Georgia feverbark tree, tuliptree or tulip poplar, redbud, red savory, rose-mallow, fire pink, plumleaf azalea, pinxterbloom azalea, flame azalea, Florida flame azalea, Piedmont azalea, Catawba rhododendron, coralbean, garden phlox, crossvine and false indigo. Some of these are easier to find and fit into garden settings than others. For example, our native coralbean has a short period of blooming and may not bloom at all or even survive in mid- or north Georgia. Georgia feverbark tree is beautiful, but doesn't like clay soil and can be difficult to find for sale. Trumpet creeper can send up dozens of suckers that cause havoc. It is best in a place where these can be kept under tight control or where the vine's unruliness and vigor are not an issue. It is good on a fence bordering a lawn or pasture or at the edge of the woods where it can climb up a pine tree and its large tubular flowers can act like lighthouse beacons to hummers. Crossvine can also be an aggressive spreader. Garden phlox has been cultivated so long and has so many varieties it may be hard to imagine it in the wild. As its name suggests, it is more likely to be seen in a garden. The same is true for Salvia coccinea, the Texas or blood sage. It is listed as native from coastal South Carolina to Florida, and west to Texas and farther south, but is more common in gardens than in natural areas of our state. To increase your chances of attracting hummingbirds, have a wide assortment of their favorites blooming for a long period of time. Visit a Georgia nursery or garden center to discover many native and non-native options to lure these fascinating birds. Arty Schronce is the Department's resident garden- ing expert. He is a lifelong gardener and a horticulture graduate of North Carolina State University who asks, "Why plant things only for yourself? Plant for hum- mingbirds, too!" EXPO: Event tells story of `cutting edge' ag technology From Page 1 County. She said it's important for producers to attend Expo Field Day to keep up with new developments and hear firsthand about corporate and university research being done at the Expo farm. Georgians should attend to "gather information to take back to their operations and see how it might work into their management plan, to enhance their bottom line, to make them more efficient," Blalock said. Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black told attendees that Expo Field Day was an opportunity for growers to plan for their next year's crop and learn new ways to share agricultural research with people across the state. "There's a lot that's still left to do with us telling the consuming public about the wonderful technology that we have and the wonderful job that American producers do to produce food, fiber and fuel that help our societies in general, not just here domestically, but also abroad," Black said. "Telling that story and all of us being on the same lines, the same page in the book, is very important." Zippy Duvall, president of Georgia Farm Bureau, said the state-of-the-art products and varieties on display show Georgia agriculture's commitment to be competitive in the marketplace. "It is important that agriculture continues to be on that cutting edge because agriculture is still the economic engine that drives this country, and we're going to make sure that everybody's proud to know that Georgia is heavily involved in that," he said.

SHRIMP: Decline in boat numbers attributed to regulations, economics From Page 1 Natural Resources Coastal Resources Division. 2013 was a record low with 1.3 million pounds, as fewer boats pulled the water. "There were 1,471 trawlers in 1979, down to 247 in 2013," Greer said. "The decline in numbers has been steady and can be attributed to the closure of the sounds to trawling, higher fuel costs and lower shrimp prices." The sounds were closed off to commercial shrimpers in the 1980s and `90s. Now boats can drag from the beaches to about six miles offshore, the deepest Georgia's white and brown shrimp can be found in, Wallace said. Though shrimp prices are rising Waters said some packinghouses are offering between $5 and $8 per pound to boats life on the sea is not an easy profession. "The expense of keeping a shrimp boat up is off the charts. When I bought my boat in 1968, fuel was 15 cents a gallon. Diesel fuel for a commercial shrimp boat today is probably about $3.75 a gallon," Waters said. And for a boat that uses 28 gallons of fuel per hour, the cost adds up quickly, Credle said. "Economics have forced quite a few of the boats out. The ones that remained have developed innovative ways to market their products," Cuthrell said. Cuthrell was one of the first captains to run a twin compressor freezer, which allows his crew to freeze shrimp directly on the boat, extending both its shelf-life and the amount of time the Judge can be out fishing before coming into port. Credle's innovation was to retrofit the Lady Jane as an agritourism passenger vessel. More than 12,000 people take his shrimp cruise each year. The two-hour trips drop nets for three 20-minute trawls, and a staff marine biologist interacts with passengers while teaching them about the sea life brought on board. In addition to agritourism, the local food movement has piqued a rising interest in both learning about where Georgia seafood comes from and eating more of it, Wallace said. "The biggest misconception is that every shrimp that you eat is caught from the ocean by local shrimp fishermen," he said. "We as a nation only produce about 8 percent of what's consumed in the US." To find out if a shrimp is domestic or imported, Credle shared a secret: take a look at the tail. Domestic shrimp have green, blue or red in their tail fins, he said. Though the majority of Georgia-caught shrimp end up in American restaurants and grocery stores, shrimp are regularly imported to keep up with demand. "Even if tomorrow every boat that's licensed caught shrimp, it wouldn't be enough to supply the restaurants because the demand is so high," Credle said. He said there are a number of theories on why Georgia's shrimp are so popular, but diners do taste a difference. "Mother Nature feeds our shrimp, so you get a different taste based on what region you're in," Wallace said. "If you like shrimp, you'll like Georgia shrimp in any recipe you get it with. It goes back to the Forest Gump movie: you can do anything with shrimp."

Photo by Dallas Duncan Summer offers a chance for Georgia students to get agricultural education outside of the classroom. A number of farms and agriculture-related facilities hold rural and agricultural summer camps open to kids of all ages. "I think they learn a lot more by doing it with their hands. It also gives them life experiences and it makes them more well-rounded," said Leroy Bagley, educational program specialist for Georgia FFA-FCCLA Center in Covington, Ga. "It's not something that you normally do at camp." In addition to leadership camps offered to students in FFA and Family, Career and Community Leaders of America classes, the center has two public camps. FFA Wildlife Camp rotates campers through archery, fishing, conservation and other handson classes so students can earn their Hunter Safety Certification while simultaneously enjoying the aspects of a traditional summer camp. The other public camp is Horse Camp, open for girls ages 10 to 13. There, campers learn grooming, feeding and riding techniques while taking care of an assigned horse for the week, Bagley said. He said it's neat to introduce students from other backgrounds to agriculture and natural resources through summer camps. Camp Wiregrass, held throughout the summer at the Georgia Museum of Agriculture and Historic Village in Tifton, Ga., has a similar mission, Program Coordinator Kelly Scott said. "The goal is pretty much to offer camps or workshop formats that the kids come and have fun with, but it's also educational," Scott said. Each Camp Wiregrass theme focuses on an element of nature and history. For the July 2 "The Revolution is Coming!" workshop, campers joined a wooden model musket mili- tia, practiced marching and mock battle formations, played 18th century games and learned how to make meals in the field. "It's something that they are taught in class, obviously, but what I think we provide is very hands-on things. We can actually make it come alive to them," Scott said. Camper Whit Shepard, 10, enjoys learning about the Revolutionary War after school and signed up for the historic day camp to be fully immersed in his studies. He said he enjoyed the workshop and thinks it's important for students to take the time to learn about Georgia's history. "They might already know something, but they could learn something new about how they made things, how they made houses or what they did to occupy themselves back then," he said. Georgia agriculture also has camps for older students, such as the high schoolers that attended July's Veterinary Career Aptitude and Mentoring Program, or VetCAMP, at the University of Georgia in Athens. VetCAMP gives campers the opportunity to broaden their horizons about the profession, said Lakecia Pettway, program coordinator for the UGA College of Veterinary Medicine Dean's Office. "They do a necropsy lab, a pathology lab, a blood lab; they're going to do an infectious disease lab," she said. "They also do a simulation lab with modern technology to look at 3D pictures a dog's heart, for instance." VetCAMP participants toured the UGA campus, CVM buildings, Georgia Aquarium and Zoo Atlanta. As a full-time vet student would, they worked in a large animal rotation and the UGA CVM's Community Practice Clinic. They were also presented with case studies. "We each got a sample case of something we might encounter if we were a veterinarian," said camper Courtney Trust, an upcoming high-school junior from Nicholson, Ga. "Our camp counselors are going through and giving us little pieces of information, so it's like a big detective story that we're all trying to figure out as a group." VetCAMP counselor Allison Williard, a rising third-year vet student, said it's important for high-school students to get interactive experiences early on in order to be better informed about what they'd like to do as a career. "A lot of these students have worked in practices before and have had animal experience, but this gives them the student perspective," she said. "You know that you don't just wake up one day and become a vet." Hugh Dookwah, senior anatomy lecturer at UGA CVM, said VetCAMP gives participants an idea of what the first-year student curriculum looks like. "I think what VetCAMP accomplishes is, it gives them a touch of the reality. How do I get there, what do I need to do? And therefore probably instills in them ... what they need to do to ensure that they do get here as veterinary students," he said. VISIT WITH A VET: Managing diarrhea in calves: When less is more Visit with a Georgia veterinarian in this monthly feature. This edition comes from Drs. Heidi Fishman and Brent Credille of the Food Animal Health and Management Program at the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. Healthy, growing calves are integral components of profitability in cow-calf herds. In 2007, it was estimated that 6.5 percent of all beef calves born in the US die prior to weaning. In the big picture the overall risk of calf death seems small. However, consider that the US beef cow inventory is approximately 29 million head. If 90 percent deliver a calf and 6.5 percent die prior to weaning, a yearly loss of 1.7 million calves can be expected. This represents an economic loss to the industry (approximately $1.4 billion) and a significant lost opportunity for the individual producer. Diarrhea, or scours, is one of the most common reasons for calf loss and is responsible for 14 percent of all deaths in calves younger than 3 weeks, and 22 percent of all deaths in calves older than 3 weeks. Diarrhea also affects the future performance of surviving calves. On average, they will weigh 35 pounds less at weaning than healthy herd mates. Diarrhea causes and consequences Diarrhea is most often caused by combinations of viral, bacterial and protozoan organisms working with one another to cause characteristic clinical signs. Diarrhea results in decreased milk intake and increased loss of water and electrolytes. Most calves with diarrhea will develop an overgrowth of bacteria within the gastrointestinal tract, and, as a result, bacteria circulating in the bloodstream. These changes lead to dehydration, acidosis and even signs of overwhelming systemic infection, or septicemia. Treating with oral fluids The standard therapy for managing diarrhea is oral fluid and electrolyte supplementation. Numerous oral electrolyte supplements are available in the US. There are several important factors to look for when choosing a product. It should include the right amount of sodium; ingredients that help facilitate absorption of water from the intestine; compounds that assist in addressing acidosis; and an energy source. The available products that meet these criteria are Calf-Lyte II, Diaque, Revibe and Hydralyte. Oral fluids and electrolytes are most appropriate for mildly dehydrated calves. Calves with a suckle response can likely tolerate fluids without difficulty. If calves with diarrhea are any greater than 8 percent dehydrated or the suckle response is weak or absent, a veterinarian should be contacted. Typically, the degree of dehydration is assessed in one of two ways: distance the eye sunk into the socket, or duration of time the skin of the neck remains standing after being tented up (see Table 1). Oral electrolytes should be fed as an additional meal to calves with diarrhea. For calves on pasture or in a paddock, they can be removed, the fluids given and the calf returned. For calves housed in confinement, the fluids can be given midday between daily feedings. It is imperative to mix the powder according to label instructions. Electrolytes should always be mixed in water. Mixing with milk can impair efficacy and sometimes affect milk digestion. It is essential that calves with diarrhea be allowed to nurse if it can be tolerated. Withholding milk for prolonged periods of time can slow recovery time and potentially contribute to worsened clinical signs. Treating with antibiotics Roughly one-third of calves with diarrhea will have bacteria circulating in the bloodstream and require more aggressive therapeutic interventions involving antibiotics. Antibiotics should only be used in calves that show systemic signs of illness such as loss or lack of appetite, lethargy, fever or have blood in the stool. Calves with diarrhea that are bright, alert, nursing well and otherwise healthy do not require antibiotics. These animals should be provided with appropriate supportive care (i.e. oral fluids) and monitored for worsening condition. Injectable antibiotics are preferred over oral antibiotics. The preferred antibiotic in calves with diarrhea is ampicillin (Polyflex), given at a dose of two to four milliliters per 100 pounds intramuscularly twice daily. The second antibiotic for calves with diarrhea is ceftiofur (Naxcel, Excenel). These products are given at a dose of two milliliters per 100 pounds subcutaneously once daily for three to five days and, since ceftiofur belongs to a class of drugs important in human medicine, it should only be used in the sickest of calves. Calf diarrhea is a costly disease for cattle producers. Remember to always consult your veterinarian and develop a comprehensive herd health protocol. Table 1.
