Effect Of Fertilization And Management On The Production Of Bromegrass In Northeast Nebraska, G. W. Rehm, W. J. Moline, E. J. Schwartz, R. S. Moomaw
Effect Of Fertilization And Management On The Production Of Bromegrass In Northeast Nebraska, G. W. Rehm, W. J. Moline, E. J. Schwartz, R. S. Moomaw
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Several experiments were conducted in northeast Nebraska to determine the effect of fertility and management practices on the production of smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss). The effectiveness of the various fertilizer treatments was measured in units of dry matter produced per acre as well as beef produced per acre. Results of these studies showed that the production of bromegrass pastures in Nebraska could be markedly improved through proper fertilization.
Differential Effects Of Technological Change On Midwestern Agriculture, Allen C. Wellman
Differential Effects Of Technological Change On Midwestern Agriculture, Allen C. Wellman
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The first objective of this study is to estimate the direct and indirect effects of several specific technological changes related to farm production and subsequent marketing activities on inter-area aspects of income per farm operator, land values, farm size and general adjustments in the competitive strength of states and regions, primarily in the Midwest. The second objective is to assess the research and policy implications of the results of the first objective.
Results Of The First International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery, J. E. Stroike, V. A. Johnson, J. W. Schmidt, P. J. Mattern
Results Of The First International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery, J. E. Stroike, V. A. Johnson, J. W. Schmidt, P. J. Mattern
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery was organized by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, under a contract with the Agency for International Development, U.S. Department of State. There has been informal cooperation with the Food and Agriculture Organization, United Nations, and the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), Mexico, D. F. Specific objectives of the nursery are to: (1) Test the adaptation of winter wheat varieties under a range of latitudes, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management and disease complexes (2) Identify superior winter varieties to serve as recipient genotypes for …
Place Discrimination In Rail Shipments Of Wheat From Great Plains Origins, Dale G. Anderson, Brian L. Mariska
Place Discrimination In Rail Shipments Of Wheat From Great Plains Origins, Dale G. Anderson, Brian L. Mariska
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The purpose of this study was to determine whether shipments of wheat by railroad from Nebraska and other Great Plains States are discriminated against relative to shipments from other wheat producing states and regions. Primary objectives were: (1) To develop a technique for measuring place discrimination (2) To employ the technique in testing empirical data for evidence of discrimination (3) To analyze the results and explore implications for geographically-separated wheat shippers.
Growing Season Air-Soil Temperature Relationships At Lincoln, Nebraska, Ralph E. Neild
Growing Season Air-Soil Temperature Relationships At Lincoln, Nebraska, Ralph E. Neild
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This study concerns the use of weekly average air temperature for predicting weekly average soil temperature under different conditions of surface cover during different times of year. Probabilities of weekly average air temperature for Lincoln as well as other Nebraska locations are available. These probabilities and the soil temperature prediction equations may be used in determining expected soil temperatures.
Performance Evaluation Of Some Warm-Season Prairie Grasses In Nebraska Environments, D. D. Warnes, L. C. Newell, W. J. Moline
Performance Evaluation Of Some Warm-Season Prairie Grasses In Nebraska Environments, D. D. Warnes, L. C. Newell, W. J. Moline
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Objectives of these experiments were to study and compare establishment of stands, fertility responses, and forage yields of certain warm-season grass varieties and experimental strains in Nebraska locations which differed in soil and climatic conditions.
