B812: Dairy Farmer Indebtedness In Maine, Wayne L. Thurston, George K. Criner, Ralph A. Reeb Nov 1985

B812: Dairy Farmer Indebtedness In Maine, Wayne L. Thurston, George K. Criner, Ralph A. Reeb

Bulletins

The dairy industry in Maine is an important contributor to the agricultural sector and general economy. In 1982 there were 750 employees processing dairy products in Maine drawing a 12 million dollar payroll (Maine Bureau of Labor). The 1983 farm-gate value of milk produced in Maine totaled 108 million dollars, higher than any other single commodity's farm-gate value (Maine Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural Resources). For the past several years the farm level price of milk has remained fairly steady while production costs inflated. This "price-cost" squeeze worsened in 1983 with a 50 cent per hundredweight decrease in the …


B811: Field Appraisal Of Resource Management Systems Farms Crop Yield And Quality Relationships With Soil Erosion - 1982, Paul R. Hepler, Lauren H. Long, Kenneth J. Laflamme, John H. Wenderoth Nov 1985

B811: Field Appraisal Of Resource Management Systems Farms Crop Yield And Quality Relationships With Soil Erosion - 1982, Paul R. Hepler, Lauren H. Long, Kenneth J. Laflamme, John H. Wenderoth

Bulletins

This document presents the objectives and third-year results of the Field Appraisal of Resource Management Systems (FARMS) study. The principal objectives of FARMS were to study the relationship of crop yields to predicted soil erosion and to simulate the economics of this relationship. Crop management, soils, conservation practices and management, crop yields, soil chemistry, and sociological data were collected. The data analyzed in preparing this report are from the 800 plots sampled in 1982. This report presents statistics for rill and sheet soil erosion, which is estimated by the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and assumed to represent a long …

“When Saint Peter says to me, ‘You ready?’ I’ll say, ‘Wait ’til I git my tray.’ ...Seems to me I grew right up in that hotel racket. I don’t hardly know what ’tis to be tired.

Bulletins

Hygrophori have been collected and identified with their possible ectomycorrhizal associates in Maine. Most of the ectomycorrhizal relationships reported from Maine were confirmed by the work of others. The information on edibility is from authors' popular mushroom guides. Colored photos of forty-four Hygrophori are included here.

Tb117: Techniques For Using The Growth And Behavior Of Imprinted Ducklings To Evaluate Habitat Quality, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr., Jack W. Witham, Jody Jones Apr 1985

Tb117: Techniques For Using The Growth And Behavior Of Imprinted Ducklings To Evaluate Habitat Quality, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr., Jack W. Witham, Jody Jones

Technical Bulletins

We developed a technique for evaluating duckling habitat quality that is based on two assumptions. In good habitat young birds (1) grow rapidly and thus are better able t o survive stresses such as inclement weather, and (2) spend relatively less time moving about in search of food and more time resting and thus are less conspicuous to predators. We imprinted artificially incubated and hatched ducklings by being present at the time of hatching; i.e., the ducklings thought we were their mother. Ducklings were split into broods and placed on ponds where their growth was measured and their behavior monitored …

B808: An Annotated Bibliography Of The Maine Agricultural Experiment Station, David C. Smith

Bulletins

The Maine Agricultural Experiment Station is a venerable organization soon to celebrate its centennial year. As a research organization--its staff was early on called the Faculty of Investigation--members of the station staff have always presented the results of their efforts in a variety of publications both in-house and otherwise.

Professor Smith has provided an annotated list of all station publications as well as some special papers of interest. Through the index to this bulletin, any interested person can readily locate material of particular interest and can easily determine whether or not it is worthwhile to go to the original publications …

Bulletins

Cooperative potato clone and variety trials were conducted at 32 locations to determine field performance of selected clones and varieties grown under soil, climatic, and cultural management common to the potato growing areas of 12 cooperating states and the Province of New Brunswick, Canada. A few locations also evaluated storage and processing behavior of selected clones and varieties. These tests are contributions to Regional Project NE107 entitled, "Breeding and Evaluation of New Potato Clones for the Northeast." The primary objective of this project is to determine clone performance and stability over a wide range of soil, climate, and cultural conditions.
