Ec94-738 Using Agricultural Anhydrous Ammonia Safely, Robert D. Grisso, David Morgan, Rollin D. Schnieder
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Anhydrous ammonia is one of the most efficient and widely used sources of nitrogen for row-crop production. Because it is a cheap source of nitrogen and readily available, large quantities of anhydrous ammonia are used as nitrogen fertilizer.
Anhydrous ammonia has disadvantages, especially in handling. It must be stored and handled under high pressure, which requires specially designed and well-maintained equipment. In addition, to ensure operator safety, workers must be trained to handle this product and to follow strict work procedures.

G94-1222 Rug And Carpet Fibers: Selection And Care, Shirley Niemeyer
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This publication discusses structural characteristics to consider when selecting carpet, including fiber and yarn construction.
The Fibers
Both natural and manufactured fibers are used in carpeting. Naturals include wool and silk. Cotton tends to crush and soil easily so it is not used for carpeting. Manufactured fibers used in carpeting include nylon, polypropylene/olefin, and polyester.
As with all commodities, carpet fiber use changes. Times, availability and cost have an impact on the market. Ninety-nine percent of today's carpet fibers are manufactured. About 68 percent of the carpet market is nylon, 22 percent polypropylene/olefin, over 9 percent polyester, and one percent …

Anthracnose diseases affect a wide variety of plants including many popular shade trees. Sycamore, ash, oak, maple, and walnut commonly exhibit symptoms each spring. Although the symptoms may appear serious, anthracnose diseases rarely kill trees. In most cases, healthy trees quickly recover from anthracnose infections with little damage to their long-term health.

G94-1199 Management To Maintain Stored Grain Quality, David D. Jones, David P. Shelton
G94-1199 Management To Maintain Stored Grain Quality, David D. Jones, David P. Shelton
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide describes many of the management factors that influence the quality of stored grain.
Grain quality will not improve during storage. At best, the initial quality can only be maintained. When stored grain goes out of condition, it is usually the cumulative result of several interrelated management factors that include: 1) harvesting, handling, and storage equipment; 2) initial condition of the grain; 3) grain moisture content; 4) grain temperature; 5) aeration system management; 6) insect and mold control; and 7) monitoring grain condition. An effective management program greatly enhances the likelihood of maintaining top quality grain.
