G93-1150 Rinsing Pesticide Containers, Larry D. Schulze, Clyde Ogg
G93-1150 Rinsing Pesticide Containers, Larry D. Schulze, Clyde Ogg
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
It is estimated that every year one million plastic agricultural pesticide containers are used in Nebraska. Effective rinsing of these containers saves money, protects the environment and meets federal and state regulations on pesticide use.
Proper rinsing of pesticide containers is easy to do, saves money and helps protect people and the environment. It also helps prevent potential problems with unrinsed containers and storage of the rinse solution (rinsate). Even during a busy season, the few extra minutes it takes to properly rinse empty pesticide containers is time well spent.

G91-1022 Guide To Growing Houseplants, Don Steinegger, Frederick P. Baxendale, John E. Watkins
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Proper care can extend houseplants' lives. This NebGuide offers hints on conditioning, light, fertilizing and more.
Many people enjoy houseplants; in fact, raising them is one of the fastest growing indoor hobbies. Caring for houseplants offers opportunities for people who like to work with living things and watch them develop. Today, houseplants are an integral part of indoor decor -- especially in winter.
An artificial indoor environment often hinders plant development. High temperatures, low humidity, lack of sunlight, poor soil conditions, and improper watering contribute to most houseplant problems. In addition, insects or plant diseases occasionally damage houseplants.
While plants …
G90-1007 Pesticide Management And Safety On Home Grounds, John C. Fech, Larry D. Schulze
G90-1007 Pesticide Management And Safety On Home Grounds, John C. Fech, Larry D. Schulze
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Pesticides can be valuable tools in controlling lawn and garden pests. They must be used according to the label, with regard for the safety of people and animals.
Pest infestations often develop in lawns or gardens, damage lawns and ornamentals, and reduce the attractiveness of the home setting. When an infestation occurs, gardeners can reach a decision in pest management by answering the following questions: What is the pest? Is the pest causing unacceptable damage? Are controls needed? What pest control method(s) should be used?
There are several methods of pest control. The main methods of pest control and some …
G90-1001 Spray Drift Of Pesticides, Larry D. Schulze, Robert Grisso, Robert Stougaard
G90-1001 Spray Drift Of Pesticides, Larry D. Schulze, Robert Grisso, Robert Stougaard
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide discusses conditions that cause particle drift, and methods private and commercial applicators may employ to reduce drift potential from pesticide spray applications.
Spray drift of pesticides away from the target is an important and costly problem facing both commercial and private applicators. Drift causes many problems including:
1. damage to susceptible off target sites,
2. a lower rate than intended which can reduce the effectiveness of the pesticide, wasting pesticide and money, and
3. environmental contamination, such as water pollution and illegal pesticide residues.
Drift occurs by two methods; vapor drift and particle drift. This NebGuide focuses mainly …

G89-915 Testing Livestock Feeds For Beef Cattle, Dairy Cattle, Sheep And Horses, Rick Grant, Bruce Anderson, Richard J. Rasby, Terry L. Mader
G89-915 Testing Livestock Feeds For Beef Cattle, Dairy Cattle, Sheep And Horses, Rick Grant, Bruce Anderson, Richard J. Rasby, Terry L. Mader
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide provides tips on how to determine feeds you should analyze and nutrients to measure. It tells how to interpret the results of feed analysis.
Why Test Feeds?
Nutrient concentration can vary considerably in feeds, especially forages. Protein in alfalfa hay can range from 10 to 25 percent or more of the dry matter; grass hay will contain between four and 18 percent protein.
Use feed tests to target specific feeds to different livestock. Feed high quality forage to the most productive livestock or when nutrient needs are highest. Feed lower quality forage to animals with lower nutrient needs. …

Rb25-207 The Spindle-Tuber Disease: One Cause Of "Run-Out" Seed Potatoes, H.O. Werner
Rb25-207 The Spindle-Tuber Disease: One Cause Of "Run-Out" Seed Potatoes, H.O. Werner
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The spindle-tuber disease is one of the most prevalent potato diseases occurring in all parts of Nebraska. It has been found in all varieties tested. It does much damage to the potato crop, in that it reduces the yield and injures the market quality of the potatoes.
This 1925 publication discusses the spindler-tuber disease also known as "running-out" or degeneracy of seed potatoes; the distribution of the disease; effect upon yield and quality; symptoms of the different potato varieties; transmission of the disease and experiments; rate of increase of the disease; dry land versus irrigation in western Nebraska; straw mulching …
