"Near-Organic" And "Mainstream" Crop-Livestock Production: South Dakota Case Study, Donald Taylor
"Near-Organic" And "Mainstream" Crop-Livestock Production: South Dakota Case Study, Donald Taylor
Economics Research Reports
In this report, results are presented of a case study on alternative strategies for producing crops and beef cattle in South Dakota. The alternative production strategies are termed "nearorganic" and "mainstream." "Near-organic" producers were defined as farmers/ranchers1 expected to substantially meet standards of private "organic" certification authorities in raising crops and livestock, whereas "mainstream" producers were defined as those who generally follow practices recommended by the S.D. Cooperative Extension Service. Four matching pairs of near-organic and mainstream case study farmers from the following locations were selected for study: Morristown in the Northwest Region, Norris in the South Central Region, Roscoe-Eureka …

D.Gps For Ground Control In The Quindabellup And Wambellup Sub-Catchments, Buddy Wheaton
D.Gps For Ground Control In The Quindabellup And Wambellup Sub-Catchments, Buddy Wheaton
Soil conservation survey collection
This report summarises work undertaken to provide ground control for digital terrain models(DTMs) of the Quindabellup and Wambellup sub-catchments. The DTMs will be generated using digital photogrammetry; the ground control was obtained using differential Global Positioning System (D.GPS). Description of Bench Marks (BMs) and summary sheets of Standard Survey Marks (SSMs) located in the general area, were obtained from the Department of Land Administration(DOLA). A ground survey was carried out to confirm the location and condition of BMs and SSMs in the two sub-catchments. Five SSMs were selected as reference points for the D.GPS survey. A further 8 bench marks …
Endangered Species And Irrigated Agriculture, Water Resource Competition In Western River Systems, United States Department Of Agriculture, Economic Research Service
Endangered Species And Irrigated Agriculture, Water Resource Competition In Western River Systems, United States Department Of Agriculture, Economic Research Service
Agriculture
This report characterizes several aspects of water allocation tradeoffs between fish species listed under the Federal Endangered Species Act and agriculture in the American West. The geographic intersection between endangered/threatened (E/T) fish and agricultural production reliant on surface water for irrigation is identified. Three findings are: (1) 235 counties, representing 22 percent of the West's counties, contain irrigated production that relies on water from rivers with E/T fish, (2) areas generating the highest revenues per acre from crop production are those most dependent on surface water irrigation, and (3) these same areas are also most likely to be drawing water …

Evaluation Of Irrigated And Non-Irrigated Corn Production In Brookings County, Douglas Franklin, Eric S. Stebbins
Evaluation Of Irrigated And Non-Irrigated Corn Production In Brookings County, Douglas Franklin, Eric S. Stebbins
Economics Research Reports
The evaluation of irrigated corn production requires crop water production functions which are time and location specific. This analysis evaluated irrigated and non-irrigated corn production from 1984 to 1993 in Brookings County. The CERES-Maize crop simulation model generated agronomic data which was representative of Brookings County. Crop budgets were created to establish production costs associated with the study area. Net returns for each of the production methods were compared.

Economics Pamphlet Series
The overall goal of the SARE/Water Quality project was to determine whether economic incentives offered by recent environmental provisions of the Federal farm program are sufficient to induce Western Corn Belt/Northern Great Plains farmers in environmentally sensitive areas to adopt sustainable farming practices and systems. To attain this goal, four case farms were chosen to be involved in this study based on their size, soil types, cropping systems, topography, and management in the Big Sioux Aquifer study area.

1. into longer tops suited for worsted weaving
2. into longer than predicted tops
3. with the same consistency as other Australian consignments
