Recent events in the UK and Worldwide have highlighted the need for livestock farmers to review all aspects of their biosecurity programs. It is not only the large outbreaks of disease such as Foot and Mouth Disease that can cause financial losses. More often, it is the chronic losses caused on a day to day basis by poor hygiene causing disease and poor growth performance.

It is not only on intensive rearing operations where these issues can arise. Poor biosecurity also has a negative effect on growers and dairy operations where any illness can reduce performance.

Drinking water supplied to livestock is often untreated, and subject to contamination from a number of sources. Many farms use a bore-hole water supply, and while these often provide a cheap and reliable source of water, unless they are treated appropriately, high levels of bacterial contamination can often be introduced. Even when water is supplied clean from the mains, it may be stored for many days in less than ideal conditions.

Organic farming has positioned itself as the current state of the art in “green” agriculture. The industry has exploded, growing by 20 percent every year since the late ’90s [source: OFRF]. “Organic” isn’t only a top choice for the very health-conscious, but also for the ecologically conscious: In organics, synthetic chemicals that can damage the land and leech into rivers are a no-no, and particular crops are planted where they’ll thrive naturally, instead of adjusting the land to suit the desired product.

In terms of health, it’s a logical jump to say that a naturally grown carrot could be better for us than ­one grown using, say, pesticides. But is organic farming as healthy for the Earth as it is for our bodies?

Leather furniture can come in various forms and sizes, from a king-size leather bed to a soft and homey leather chaise-lounge. Aside from its appeal, there are many good things to say about this type of furniture. Homemakers who have some very good pieces will attest that leather can be one of the most durable materials furniture can be made of. But because it is made of natural animal hide, it may take a little extra care to maintain.

Day-to-day care for this furniture involves dusting it with dry cloth and reaching into the bottom parts and crevices using a vacuum cleaner. The recommended frequency for applying leather conditioner is once or twice a year. When applied more frequently, the leather can become weak or brittle as conditioners are made of chemicals that are harsh when used excessively. To further preserve the beauty of leather furniture, it should not be placed where there there is direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading. a clean piece of absorbent fabric dipped in warm water may be used to wipe them off. The key here is to remove the stain as soon as possible so it’s easier to wipe off. For oily marks, any dry, absorbent cloth will do. While a light trace can remain, this will usually go away in a few days. There may be stains that are too stubborn for you to handle, and you may just be tempted to use all sorts of things, from nail polish to varnish, that you’ve heard people say would be good for scenarios like this. Don’t even think about using any of those substances, if you don’t want to end up with more problems than you started with. The best thing to do when a stain won’t come off is simply to call a leather technician who is always the best person to manage the situation.

If you want to maintain the beauty of your leather furniture, keep in mind that this material can be more sensitive than you think it is. In fact, people actually study leather, how to make good pieces and how to restore or repair old ones. This is the reason why you need to get a leather technician when you have a stain that sticks so hard or a scratch that you can’t buff with your fingers. This is probably also one of the reasons why this furniture is relatively more expensive than other types. Still, for every dollar you spend on a good piece, you know your satisfaction is always priceless.
