Educational and Research Websites

[rancar]

I've been with TBN for almost a year now and I've been impressed with the depth of knowledge and information that I've been able to garner not only here at TBN but at other referenced websites various posters would refer to from time to time.

I'd like to therefore start this thread by posting the following legal website that I found quite educational. It deals with legal issues at the layman's level. It briefly addresses a host of issues that I've found TBNers bringing up in the forums from time to time, especially issues dealing with noise, boundaries, fences, trees, views, water damage, and right to farm interesting. While the content is not comprehensive, it points the reader and researcher in the general direction when further study or research is warranted.

I'd be interested in hearing from other TBNers if they know of other educational, research oriented websites (other than specific dealer or vendor supplier sites) that can enhance one's knowledge of the ownership/operation/management of their tractors and their land or any aspects related to it. Thanks.

Check out government websites. Some can be very informative.

Thanks Egon....do you have any favorites that are noteworthy?

Not really:
I go to the Nova Scotia Government site and look around. What interests me may be very boring to others.
I look for things like sewage systems, geology, well drilling, topography and woodlot management.

I came across the following linked website that's chock full of useful information that TBNers may find useful. University of Nebraska has developed this giant database of agriculture-related publications produced by the extension service at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The database covers hundreds of fact sheets devoted to livestock, irrigation, machinery, farm management, and a few dozen other topics that TBNers discuss every day in the forums.

Just left click on Publications in the upper right window.

Hi Dan....

You're right....this is a terrific website. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif I believe I will 'get lost' here for a few hours. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif This is an example of just the kind of 'good' research website I was hoping TBNers would share when I started this thread. Thanks!
