An Inventory Of Apiculture Land Use Surveys, R C. Burking Nov 1986

An Inventory Of Apiculture Land Use Surveys, R C. Burking

Soil conservation survey collection

Each year the Apiculture Section of the Western Australian Department of Agriculture undertakes a series of surveys relating to flora prospects, land area suitability or wildfire damage to bee pastures. Such surveys may vary according to the requirements both in time and intensity and the report may be presented as a Departmental file comment or be of such significance to warrant a suitable publication. The Department of Agriculture is at present collating numerous surveys and reports undertaken by a variety of Research Officers in various Divisions. Computer data bases have been set up utilising the Records Management System which will …


Chemical, Physical And Mineralogical Properties Of Mitchell And Tripp Soils In The Nebraska Panhandle, G. A. Uzochukwu, D. T. Lewis Oct 1986

Chemical, Physical And Mineralogical Properties Of Mitchell And Tripp Soils In The Nebraska Panhandle, G. A. Uzochukwu, D. T. Lewis

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Mitchell and Tripp soils are some of the most important agricultural soils in the Nebraska Panhandle. Yet, they have received little attention in terms of their basic chemical, physical, and mineral properties. Management decisions can be made on a more informed basis if this kind of information is available. This study was to acquire the information, with special emphasis on mineralogical properties of the soils and their parent materials. This emphasis was given because it is known that other soils in the region contain volcanic ash in measurable amounts. The presence of volcanic ash in soils has been associated with …


Annual Statice In Nebraska, Ellen T. Paparozzi Oct 1986

Annual Statice In Nebraska, Ellen T. Paparozzi

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Annual statice can be successfully grown, harvested, and preserved under Nebraska's climatic conditions. Start plants from seed nine weeks before they are field or garden planted. The earlier in the season that planting occurs, the greater the yield. Apply fertilizer before and after planting. Herbicides are recommended to eliminate hand weeding and allow maximum yield. Flowers should be harvested when all florets are fully open and can be used fresh, or dry stored at 2C (36F). Statice can also be preserved by drying or soaking fresh cut stems in 1:2 or 1:3 glycerine to water solution for 48 hours and …

Production Of Aflatoxin On Damaged Corn Under Controlled Environmental Conditions, D. M. Wieman, G. M. White, Joseph L. Taraba, I. J. Ross, Clair L. Hicks, Bruce E. Langlois Jul 1986

Production Of Aflatoxin On Damaged Corn Under Controlled Environmental Conditions, D. M. Wieman, G. M. White, Joseph L. Taraba, I. J. Ross, Clair L. Hicks, Bruce E. Langlois

Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering Faculty Publications

Aflatoxin B1 production by Aspergillus flavus (NRRL 6432) was determined on physically damaged corn stored at 35,25 and 20°C and at relative humidities of 97 and 92%. Production at lower relative humidities of 80 and 85% were also tested at 25°C. Production lag times were significantly different for all test conditions. Lag times ranged from 46 h at 97% relative humidity and 35°C to 173. 8 h at 20°C and 92% relative humidity. Aflatoxin B, concentration doubled every 6 to 10 hours after a level of 10 ppb had been reached. Production rate constants were not significantly different between …


Abatement Of Nitrate Pollution In Groundwater And Surface Runoff From Cropland Using Legume Cover Crops With No-Till Corn, M. Scott Smith, Jac J. Varco Jul 1986

Abatement Of Nitrate Pollution In Groundwater And Surface Runoff From Cropland Using Legume Cover Crops With No-Till Corn, M. Scott Smith, Jac J. Varco

KWRRI Research Reports

Agricultural practices can have a significant impact on water quality. The effects of leguminous winter cover crops on leaching of NO-3; from soil have been investigated in this project. Legume cover crops, by fixation of atmospheric N, can reduce the amount of fertilizer N required to produce summer grain crops. The methods initially used to evaluate cover crop effects on No; transport included suction probe lysimeters and measurement of NO-3; in soil samples collected to a depth of 90 cm. These measurements demonstrated extreme spatial variability in NO-3; distribution and water …
