Soybeans: 2000 Crop Performance Results, Cooperative Extension Service, South Dakota State University
SDSU Extension Circulars
Successful soybean production is greatly affected by variety selection for a given growing area. This publication reports the agronomic performance of entries in the 2001 South Dakota performance trials for conventional (non-Roundup Ready™) and RoundupReady™ soybean varieties. Important factors in variety selection include yield, maturity, plant height, lodging resistance, and Phytophthora root rot resistance. In the case of public varieties, additional information including emergence, shattering, and iron chlorosis scores (Table A) are available to assist in making variety selections.

A Comparative Review Of Structural Changes In South Korea And South Dakota Agriculture, Larry Janssen, Yong Kwon
A Comparative Review Of Structural Changes In South Korea And South Dakota Agriculture, Larry Janssen, Yong Kwon
Economics Staff Paper Series
Structural change is an ongoing feature of economic development around the world. Despite vast differences in the structural organization of South Korean and South Dakota (U.S) agriculture, many structural changes are similar. This paper includes a comparative review of selected structural changes in Korean and South Dakota (U.S.) agriculture and the relative impact of forces affecting structural changes in both nations. Reduced economic impact of farm sector, farm population and farm size trends, full-time vs. part-time farming, changing food consumption, imports and exports are some of the major structural trends examined. Implications of changing agricultural structure in South Korea and …
Are Worker's Wages Driven By National Or Local Factors?, Dwight Adamson, David Clark, Mark Partridge
Are Worker's Wages Driven By National Or Local Factors?, Dwight Adamson, David Clark, Mark Partridge
Economics Staff Paper Series
Previous studies of the linkage of national and regional labor markets have focused on aggregate employment growth and migration. By focusing on the separate effects of national and regional labor market economic conditions on wages, this study differs from much of the previous literature. In particular, this paper will extend the previous literature in two key directions. First, it will explore whether local economic activity and location-specific amenities have different effects on metropolitan and nonmetropolitan area wages. Second, it will determine whether these effects on workers varied by education level between metro and nonmetro workers. These issues will be explored …
The Effect Of Educational And Residential Characteristics On The Private Return To Education, Dwight Adamson, James Swenson
The Effect Of Educational And Residential Characteristics On The Private Return To Education, Dwight Adamson, James Swenson
Economics Staff Paper Series
This paper attempts to investigate the individual wage rate of return to college education. Over the last twenty years, the return to college education has increased dramatically. We propose to investigate how the return to college differs across educational and residential characteristics. We first consider differential returns to an associate, bachelor, advanced, and professional degrees and what characteristics of an individual's college education influence the rate of return to different degrees. Secondly, we focus on the variation in the return to college education in different areas of residence by comparing the return to education across regions and metropolitan and nonmetropolitan …

The Effect Of China's Economic Reform Program On The Employment Structure In China's Urban Areas, Feng Xu, Scott Fausti, Dwight Adamson, H. Kim
Economics Staff Paper Series
A review of China's economic and political reforms since 1978 is provided and then linked to structural change in China's urban labor force as a result of the reform process. Analysis of data on urban labor allocation in China from 1978-97 indicates labor is being reallocated from the public sector to the private sector at a very rapid pace. The data indicates the urban labor has doubled and employment in the private sector has increased from nearly zero to a little over 30% in a 20 year period. The data also suggest that Chinese estimates of urban employment and unemployment …

Artificial Insemination Of Swine, Jeff Clapper
Artificial Insemination Of Swine, Jeff Clapper
SDSU Extension Extra Archives
Enhancing physiological processes and reducing production costs associated with mating are key considerations for optimizing swine breeding herd management. Successful matings from either natural mating or artificial insemination, involve coordinating insemination with ovulation. Hand mating or pen mating takes advantage of the boar’s innate ability to determine which females are in estrus and carry out the breeding process. However, as the swine industry has evolved, artificial insemination is emphasized as a way to capitalize on advantages beyond estrus detection.
Turfgrass Research Summary: 1999, Leo Schleicher
Turfgrass Research Summary: 1999, Leo Schleicher
Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars
Although perennial ryegrass provides excellent playability at mowing heights as low as one-half inch on golf course fairways, winter injury is frequently reported. Freezing stress resistance may be influenced by cultivar, mowing height, and fertility. The objectives of this study are to identify perennial ryegrass cultivars suitable for the Northern Plains, as influenced by mowing height and fertility, and to investigate the reliability of a laboratory screening procedure. Following establishment in the fall of 1998, 22 perennial ryegrass cultivars were evaluated in the field during the 1999 growing season for winter injury, genetic color, snow mold injury, rust disease, and …

Asymmetric Information And Wage Differences Across Groups: Labor Market Discrimination Or Nondiscriminatory Market Outcome, Dwight Adamson, Scott Fausti
Asymmetric Information And Wage Differences Across Groups: Labor Market Discrimination Or Nondiscriminatory Market Outcome, Dwight Adamson, Scott Fausti
Economics Staff Paper Series
Labor market discrimination is defined as a failure to receive compensation equivalent to workers' productivity. In an efficient labor market, a worker's productivity attributes-labor force experience, education, tenure, etc.-and innate ability will be duly rewarded regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, or other individual characteristics. Workers receive pay commensurate with individual productivity. Employers do discriminate in pay and employment between individual productivity characteristics and ability. This is not labor market discrimination. It reflects market efficiency, since workers with productivity attributes and abilities that are highly demanded by employers receive the highest wage rates. It is also well known that females and …
Uncertainty Over The Quality Of Labor Inputs: A Nonmonopoly Theory Of Union Wages And Hours Worked, Dwight Adamson, Scott Fausti
Uncertainty Over The Quality Of Labor Inputs: A Nonmonopoly Theory Of Union Wages And Hours Worked, Dwight Adamson, Scott Fausti
Economics Staff Paper Series
A theoretical model of labor demand under uncertainty which incorporates the propositions found in the union voice literature is presented. The model generates a positive union effect on wages and hours worked without union monopoly power. The model provides a more detailed conceptual framework for explaining why the union voice effect may improve efficiency within the firm than that currently found in the literature.

Lambing-Time Management, Jeff Held, Dale Miskimins
Lambing-Time Management, Jeff Held, Dale Miskimins
SDSU Extension Extra Archives
Sheep respond remarkably well to sound management, especially during lambing. The success of a lambing season often will be determined well before the birth of the first lamb. Decisions and action before the flock starts lambing can result in more pounds of lamb weaned per ewe, with excellent economic return to labor. Lambing a flock usually involves high labor input compared to the remainder of the year, but there’s a limit to the hours a person can devote to lambing barn activities. Therefore, it’s extremely important to be organized and to establish a plan to follow before the newborn lambs …
