0

The 79th performance test of the Indiana Beef Evaluation Program finished March 27, 2017 at the Feldun-Purdue Ag Center in Bedford.

A total of 217 bulls from nine breeds completed the test. The bulls were entered by 76 seedstock producers from Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, and Ohio. Bulls were fed a moderate-energy ration during the 125-day test and daily gain for the entire group was 3.77 lbs.

The bulls are in ideal body condition for use this spring.

This is an excellent set of bulls that offer a range of performance for the economically important traits. Bull number 118 will enter the sale ring first because of his strong combination of traits. His Performance Index was 119.4. His EPD’s ranked in the top 10% of the Angus breed for birth weight, weaning weight, maternal milk, direct and maternal calving ease, ribeye area, and $W index. Angus #118 was consigned by Kiata Farms, Hamilton, OH and was sired by

Kiata Confidence 6458. Other bulls with superior balanced traits for performance and carcass merit that will sell early in the sale include Angus #100 from Drew Brown, Rockville, IN; Angus #191 from Underwood Angus Farms, North Manchester, IN; Angus #35 from Rolling Acres Angus, Freetown, IN; Angus #52 from Stewart Select Angus, Greensburg, IN; Angus #195 from Snider-Clayton Farm, Goshen, IN; Angus #86 from Big D Farms, Elizabeth, IN; SimAngus #213 from Kohli Farms, Circleville, OH; and Angus #161 from Hanlin Farms, Pennville, IN.

Beef producers looking for a high carcass merit bull should take note of Angus #64, consigned by Willer Timber Ridge, Greencastle, IN. Bull #64 had an estimated intramuscular fat of 7.11% with 0.24 inches of rib fat and a ribeye area of 11.9 square inches, for a combined Carcass Merit of 125.5.

Cattle producers looking for bulls that will add pounds, quality and value to their calves will not want to miss the sale on Thursday April 20, 2017, 6:00 p.m. at the Springville Feeder Auction, Springville, Indiana. In addition, the sale will be broadcast live over the internet through DVAuction Services. Users with high speed internet access and interested in buying or

Corn Farmers Encouraged to Run for Indiana Corn Checkoff Board

0

Indiana corn farmers with an interest in building stronger markets for their corn while

strengthening their leadership skills are encouraged to run for a seat on the state corn checkoff

board of directors.

The Indiana Corn Marketing Council manages state corn checkoff investments with the goal of

supporting and growing Indiana’s corn industry. Five seats on ICMC’s board of directors are up

for election in 2017.

David Gottbrath, ICMC president and a farmer from Pekin, Ind., says serving on the corn

checkoff board gives Indiana corn farmers an opportunity to take an active role in Indiana’s corn

industry while making decisions about the investment of checkoff funds.

“We’re looking for Indiana corn farmers who care about the future of agriculture to step into

these leadership positions,” said Gottbrath. “There is a new generation of farmers, and we want

to involve them in ICMC’s work so the organization remains effective and aware of the needs of

Indiana’s corn growers.”

Board members are involved in determining the promotional, educational and research activities

funded by the corn checkoff. ICMC’s strategic plan focuses on market development, production

research and farmer services. Current priorities include ethanol, transportation infrastructure,

production research, livestock promotion and international exports.

To run for an ICMC director seat, Indiana corn farmers must be a registered Indiana voter, be at

least 18 years of age, and reside in the appropriate district. All farmers who submit a valid

petition by June 30, 2017 will be listed as a candidate on the election ballot. Voting takes place at

Purdue Cooperative Extension Service county offices in August 2017.

This year, ICMC has seats open in Districts 3, 6, and 9. There are also two open At-Large seats.

 District 3: The counties of LaGrange, Steuben, Noble, DeKalb, Whitley, Allen,

Huntington, Wells and Adams.

 District 6: The counties of Blackford, Jay, Delaware, Henry, Randolph, Wayne, Fayette

and Union.

 District 9. The counties of Franklin, Jennings, Jefferson, Ripley, Dearborn, Ohio, Clark,

Switzerland and Scott.

 The two open At-Large seats represent the entire state of Indiana.

Farmers interested in running for a director position should submit a petition to the ICMC office

before June 30, 2017. Farmers can receive a petition by downloading the forms at

www.incorn.org/elections or by calling Chris Weldon at the ICMC office at 1-800- 735-0195.

Forms are also available at all Purdue County Extension offices.

Newly elected directors will begin a three-year term October 1, 2017. ICMC directors can serve

three consecutive full terms or a total of nine consecutive years.

Sleepy Driver Strikes Electronic Construction Zone Sign

0

This afternoon at 12:29, Indiana State Police and Terre Haute City Fire/Rescue/Paramedic units responded to a one-vehicle crash in the eastbound lanes of Interstate 70 near the eight mile marker. 

Preliminary investigation revealed an eastbound 2014 Subaru, driven by 29-year-old Devin R. Snyder of Jackson, New Jersey, failed to slow or merge at the entrance to the construction zone and struck an electronic sign indicating traffic was merging to one lane. 

Snyder was transported to Terre Haute Regional Hospital on suspicion of a fractured wrist and abdominal pain. Driver fatigue is believed to have been a contributing factor in this crash. Snyder was cited for Failure to Yield to a Traffic Control Device. 

The crash was investigated by ISP Detective Michael Featherling. Assisting were ISP Master Trooper Jason Owen and the city of Terre Haute Fire/Rescue/Paramedic units. 

Under the Law, criminal charges are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Trooper Brian Snyder Returns to Duty 4 Click to edit this placeholder text.

After nine grueling surgeries, Master Trooper Brian Snyder has returned to full police duty. His desire to return to the career he loves kept him motivated through the four years of multiple surgeries. 

In the early morning hours of March 6th, 2013 Trooper Snyder was investigating a crash on I-65 northbound near the 92 mile marker. Snyder was standing just outside his car when he happened to notice a semi tractor-trailer coming straight toward him.

Just in the nick of time, Snyder dove through his open door into the front seat and the semi sideswipped his car.

Snyder narrowly escaped seriuos injury but noticed some discomfort in his back and could immediatly tell his hand was injured from the impact.

The semi pulled over on the shoulder ahead of the crash scene but then pulled away, it was never located.

Snyders turned out to be more seriously injured than he initially thought requiring 5 surgeries to repair his hand and 4 surgeries on his back.

Trooper Snyder, a 19 year veteran, has returned to the Indianapolis District and will begin patrolling Johnson and southern Marion County on the midnight shift.

Indianapolis District Commander, Lt. Jeff Payne said, “Brian is a model trooper, we are thankful he has been able to recover from his injuries, he had a long road to recovery and his committment to returning to duty demonstrates his passion for being an Indiana State Trooper”

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The Louisville Bats return from their first road trip of the season with a 5-6 record after winning three of four at Huntington Park in Columbus, Ohio.  The next seven games will be played at Louisville Slugger Field from April 18 – 23 against the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (4-6) and South Division leading Durham Bulls (7-4).

Louisville outfielder Sebastian Elizalde is second in the International League in batting (.429), first in hits (18) and first in total bases (26). He saw his nine-game hitting streak to begin the season come to an end on Sunday in Columbus.

Tuesday, April 18 is ALS Night where there will be a pregame check presentation on the field and also a radio interview with the Voice of the Bats, Nick Curran. Fans will also be able to get information about ALS on the concourse. As always on Tuesday’s, fans can enjoy $1 hot dogs and $1 Pepsi all game long and also play Baseball Bingo when the Bats are hitting.

Thursday, April 20 is another $1 Budweiser Happy Hour from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. on the Overlook Deck. Timmy & Sharfe will play live music until 6:25 p.m.

Friday, April 21 there will not be fireworks after the game due to Thunder Over Louisville on Saturday. Craft Beer Night returns at the Left Field Beer Trailer and the Jack Daniels Country Cocktail drink special returns where fans can try all three flavors in a 16 oz. can for $5 each.

Saturday, April 22 is Thunder Over Louisville at Louisville Slugger Field. Gates will open at 12:00 p.m. and first pitch is scheduled for 2:05 p.m. Hello Weekendwill play a postgame concert on the field after the game. For $5 per person, fans can buy a Field Access Pass, which will get them on the field after the game for the postgame concert, air show and fireworks that night.

Sunday, April 23 is another Kids Day at the ballpark. Kids eat free with a paid admission, run the bases after the game and there will also be inflatables in the Hall of Fame Pavilion for kids to enjoy. Sunday is also the first of two Team Autograph days. Gates open at 12:30 with players and coaches signing along the outfield warning track from 12:45 – 1:25 p.m. If it rains, the signing will be on the stadium concourse.

The Bats have drawn over 10 million fans since Louisville Slugger Field opened in April, 2000. Tickets for all regular season games are available.
