Use Of Farm Resources As Conditioned By Tenure Arrangements, Virgil L. Hurlburt

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

How do tenure arrangements affect organization and use of resources within farm firms? Do lease terms and arrangements affect quantities and kinds of inputs? Does the tenant and the landlord each receive full earnings of the resources he contributes to the farm business? Which of the strictly tenure-oriented characteristics of farms, as contrasted with the general economic problems of all farms, help to explain differences between and within owner-operated, cropshare cash tenant-operated and livestock-share tenant-operated farms? These are the major questions to which answers were sought in the research reported here.

Using Fertilizer Nitrogen Effectively On Grain Crops, Robert A. Olson, A. F. Dreier, C. Thompson, K. Frank, Phillip H. Grabouski

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Fertilizer nitrogen is necessary for the efficient production of grain crops throughout the midwest. Farmers have recognized this need by tremendous increases in nitrogen consumption duhng the past decade.

Fertilizer nitrogen where needed for optimum yield usually increases slightly the total water used by the crop. The water required in making this optimum yield, however, is used a good deal more efficiently than where nitrogen is omitted. Nebraska studies on fertilizer economy have demonstrated nitrate leaching losses in some cases, especially serious on sandy soils of low water holding capacity and with irrigation. Strong circumstantial evidence also suggests denitrification of …

An Appraisal Of The Use Of Soil Survey Information As The Basis For Valuing Land For Tax Purposes In Spink County, South Dakota, Donald Dean Patterson

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

There is, however, strong justification for enacting modifications in the structure of the property tax and seeking means of strengthening its administration. Historical trends are of special interest when studying the property tax because it has survived with few modifications during a period of changing economic conditions. Since its adoption in Colonial times, the nation's economy has passed from the agricultural to the present industrial stage. Many of today's property tax problems are related to those gradual changes in the economy of the country and in the needs of its citizens. These aspects of the property tax are also related …

Comparative Behavior And Relationships Of The Eiders, Paul A. Johnsgard

Papers in Ornithology

Pair-forming and copulatory displays of the four species of eiders are described and illustrated, based on observations of captive and wild specimens. Behavioral differences indicate that two genera (Polysticta and Somateria) of eiders should be recognized, and that Lamponetta should be considered a synonym of Somateria. Racial differences in the displays of Somateria mollissima mollissima and S. m. v. nigra are explained on the basis of sympatry between the latter and S. fischeri, producing selection for display divergence that has not affected S. m. mollissima. Similarities in the behavior patterns of the eiders and the …

Comparison Of Alternative Beef Cattle Systems For Western South Dakota Ranches, Grant L. Cornelius

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

Speculation often arises among ranchers that an increase in size of operation, a change from one type of system to another, or a modification of the present type of system may be profitable. This speculation is caused by cost and price changes which reduce net returns and make other types of operations appear to be more profitable. The objective of this study is to develop cost and return estimates of common types of cattle ranching systems and thereby determine whether such speculation is well founded.

Understanding Crop Pests, Air Applicator Institute

Air Applicator Information Series

The first part of this volume presents in brief the life cycles of all the most important crop insect pests in the United States. Knowledge of the life cycle is necessary to a clear understanding of the insect and the injury which is often done by it in its larvae stage. The second part of this volume provides brief descriptions and illustrations of the most common weed pests and fungus diseases of crops in the United States.

Knowing Agricultural Chemicals, Air Applicator Institute

Air Applicator Information Series

The purpose of this book is to present brief descriptions of various chemicals used in agriculture. Insects and weed pests will be discussed only incidentally, as they are the subjects of other volumes of this information series. The reader who wishes to make a more detailed study of agricultural chemicals should consult the Bibliography in Volume Six for additional reference material.

Cell Mitosis During Skin Wound Healing, Frank M. Noice

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

It has been well documented that an open (incised) skin wound through the epidermis and into the underlying dermis, results in a rapid, within 24 hours, and abnormal rise in the epidermal mitotic rate. The mitotic rate may be more than ten times the normal maximum, and is highest among those cells closest to the wound edge and lowest, near the normal rate, about 1 mm. from the wound edge. The decreasing mitotic rate within 1 mm. of the wound edge holds quite constant regardless of the size of the open wound. The theoretical explanation of this situation is presented …

Nesting Habits Of The Soft-Shelled Turtles (Trionyx Sp.), Rory Neil Vose

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Soft-shelled turtles (Trionyx Sp.) are common along the Mississippi River but, in spite of their abundance, the literature contains very few accounts of their life history, particularly with respect to nesting. The principal contributions concerning the ecology of Trionyx have been made by Breckenridge (1944); Cahn (193 7); Carr (1952); Ditmars (1936); and Pope (1939 and 1955).

The present study was undertaken to learn more about the nesting habits of the Trionyx turtles in the area near Winona, Minnesota. Because of the great similarity between species of Trionyx turtles, and because close observation would have disturbed their normal nesting activities, …
