No deaths could be ascribed to lack of warnings or forecasts, the cause of many deaths in earlier days.įive persons in North Dakota died due to some related effect of the storm. Timely warnings, at least a day in advance of the storm good dissemination and modern communications undoubtedly all helped to keep the number of deaths to a minimum. This lack of severely low temperatures, which usually accompany such severe North Dakota blizzards, undoubtedly was partly responsible for the relatively few deaths which occurred directly as a result of the storm. Minimum temperatures during the blizzard were, in general, in the teens, with below zero temperatures not reported until Saturday and Sunday, after the blizzard had passed. For the first time in the history of many towns, schools were closed, all business was suspended, newspapers failed to publish, and all forms of traffic came to a complete halt. Snowfall, reported as much as 38 inches in the northeastern part of the state, was piled into mountainous drifts 30 to 40 feet high in many places over the state. In the 1966 storm, winds reported over 70 mph continued unabated for up to four days in some areas. The unusually severe blizzard of March 15, 1941, with 70 mph winds, crossed the state from northwest to southeast in only 7 hours, leaving 39 dead in eastern North Dakota, where the storm was most severe. The legendary Janublizzard, which left at least 112 persons dead, lasted for 14 hours. In some respects, the blizzard of 1966 can be considered one of the most severe in the history of the state. By Friday all parts of the state were under the influence of a severe blizzard except the three extreme northwestern counties which experienced high winds and dust storms but no snowfall. 16% Rangeland Cake is available with feed additives at FDA-approved levels.Snow began over the southern half of the state Wednesday morning, March 2, and spread northward by Thursday to all of North Dakota except the extreme northwest and north central portions. Proper use of feed additives can increase weight gain and feed utilization refer to product tag for specific claim. Proper mineral and vitamin supplementation aids forage digestion, protein and energy utilization, reproductive efficiency and disease resistance. Feeding rate can be increased as forage quality decreases to maintain an acceptable level of performance. Increased forage digestion means more energy for increased production efficiency.ĭigestible energy, protein and mineral content of forages declines with increasing maturity. A combination of supplemental rumen degradable and non-degradable protein ensures that adequate protein is available for fetal growth and/or lactation and that rumen microorganisms have an adequate supply of degradable protein to maximize forage digestion. Digestible energy value of the basal forage diet can be further increased with proper protein supplementation.ġ6% Rangeland Cake is formulated with a combination of rumen degradable, and non-degradable protein sources to provide an excellent blend of all-natural protein.
Unlike grain-based supplements that decrease forage digestion, digestible fiber provided by 16% Rangeland Cake can increase utilization of the basal forage diet by stimulating rumen microbial growth. 16% Rangeland Cake provides a high level of supplemental energy in the form of digestible fiber. Digestible energy is the most common limiting factor to livestock production.
