Ec89-724 Irrigation Scheduling Using Tensiometers In Sandy Soils, William L. Kranz, Thomas Dorn, Dean E. Eisenhauer
Ec89-724 Irrigation Scheduling Using Tensiometers In Sandy Soils, William L. Kranz, Thomas Dorn, Dean E. Eisenhauer
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Monitoring soil moisture is fundamental to determining how much irrigation water should be applied and when the soil is able to store the amount of water to be applied. Establishing when and how much water should be applied is often referred to as irrigation scheduling.
This extension circular discusses soil moisture terms; what is a tensiometer, its installation and use; and worksheet.
Ec89-263 Nebraska Breeding And Calving Record Book
Ec89-263 Nebraska Breeding And Calving Record Book
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This Breeding-Calving Record Book will serve as a useful aid in keeping complete and accurate beef performance records. Performance records have long been recognized as a valuable tool in the selection of genetically superior cattle; in addition, performance records are now being used to eliminate much of the "guesswork" from herd management decisions.

Ec89-1761 Poisonous Snakes And Snakebite In Nebraska, Ron J. Johnson
Ec89-1761 Poisonous Snakes And Snakebite In Nebraska, Ron J. Johnson
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Nebraska has four kinds of venomous snakes — the prairie rattlesnake, timber rattlesnake, western massasauga (a small rattlesnake), and copperhead. Knowing how to identify venomous snakes, especially the kinds found in areas where you might go, is a good first step in avoiding them.
This publication provides information about Nebraska's venomous snakes, some guidelines for avoiding snakebite, and suggestions on what to do in case of snakebite.
Ec89-723 Irrigation Scheduling Using Soil Moisture Blocks In Silty Soils, William L. Kranz, Dean E. Eisenhauer
Ec89-723 Irrigation Scheduling Using Soil Moisture Blocks In Silty Soils, William L. Kranz, Dean E. Eisenhauer
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Irrigation takes some risk out of crop production by providing a reliable source of water that allows the producer to manage soil water. Monitoring soil water is fundamental to determining how much irrigation water should be applied, and when the soil is able to store the amount of water to be applied.
This publication describes how to use soil mositure blocks to schedule irrigations in fine textured soils.
