Results Of The Sixth International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery Grown In 1974, K. D. Wilhelmi, S. L. Kuhr, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, J. W. Schmidt

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This is the sixth report of results from an International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery (IWWPN) organized in 1968 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. The Nursery was designed to (1) test the adaptation of winter wheat cultivars in a range of latitudes, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management, and disease complexes; (2) identify superior winter cultivars to serve as recipient genotypes for high protein and high lysine genes, and (3) test the degree of expression and stability of …

Capital Investment Requirements For A 500, 1,000 And 10,000 Head Cattle Feedlot, Robert Allen, Myron Eighmy, David Jibben

Economics Research Reports

The purpose of this study is to figure the fixed costs of constructing and equipping a 500, 1,000 or 10,000 cattle feedlot given certain assumptions and restrictions, and to analyze those costs in terms of economic efficiency. The fixed costs are divided into six areas of analysis: the equipment of the feedlot, the pole buildings, the concrete flooring for the pole buildings, the feedlot building materials, the feedlot storage equipment and the waste disposal.

Effects Of Time Of Application Of Glyphosate In The Control Of Johnsongrass, Marlin Moody

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Investigations were conducted to determine the effects of the herbicide glyphosate and its time of application on the control of johnsongrass.

Johnsongrass plots were divided into areas designated undisturbed, spring plowed, and clipped. These areas were compared to determine differences in control of johnsongrass when using glyphosate with different management procedures. Glyphosate was applied at weekly intervals and treatment effects were statistically analyzed. There were three replications of each treatment.

It appears from the results that:

1. Glyphosate kills approximately 100% of the johnsongrass topgrowth regardless of the application date.

2. Height of the johnsongrass plant at the time of glyphosate application …

Evaluation Of Glyphosate In No-Till Double Crop Soybeans Using Varying Volumes & Pressures, Charles Rogers

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

No-tillage production of crops has developed and become widespread since the late 1950/s. No-till is dependent upon the use of broad spectrum herbicides to kill weeds already growing at planting time. Until recently, this has almost exclusively been paraquat (1,1'-dimethy1-4,4'-bipyridinium ion). Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] is a new herbicide which has great potential for use in no -tillage production.

Soybeans (Glycine max L.) were planted in the stubble after wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was harvested. All plots received applications of the residual herbicides alachlor [2-chioro-2',6'-diethyl-N-(methoxymethyl)acetanilide] and linuron [3-(3,4-dichlorophenv1)-1-methoxy-1-methylurea]. Each plot also received either paraquat or glyphosate or was designated as …

In early August the Oombulgurri community requested assistance in the following terms.

"On behalf of the Oombulgurri Community, we invite assistance in developing the grain and pasture cropping at Oombulgurri. We have experimented with peanuts, sorghum, and many varieties of vegetables. This has tested the reality of hopes to expand acreage and varieties to become self-sufficient in stock feed. The Farm and Garden Guild now needs the expertise of your services to plan a four-year programme. vie need assistance in choosing from the many options, opinions and advices available from Australia and elsewhere, for grain production, pastures, methods appropriate to …

Performance Of Certified Seed Lots Of Dawson Alfalfa, W. R. Kehr, G. R. Manglitz

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Breeder, foundation, and certified seed lots of Dawson alfalfa, Medicago sativa L., were tested to determine stability in performance during three generations of seed increase under certification. Two field experiments were conducted, a seeded forage yield test and a space-planted test. Greenhouse experiments included separate tests for resistance to pea aphids, spotted alfalfa aphids, and bacterial wilt. Results obtained on certified Dawson alfalfa seed classes in field and greenhouse experiments were in agreement with the original variety description.

Anatomy Of The Adults Of Loxagrotis Albicosta, C.Y. Oseto, T.J. Helms

Papers from the University Studies series (University of Nebraska)

LEPIDOPTERA are divided into the major suborders Monotrysia and Ditrysia (Borner, 1939). The vast majority of Lepidoptera belong to the Ditrysia. The Noctuidae, which is the largest family in the order, is probably the most destructive (Metcalf, et aI., 1962). It includes Loxagrotis albicosta (Smith), the western bean cutworm, originally a pest of field beans, which has become a relatively serious pest of corn in southwestern and central Nebraska (Hagen and Roselle, 1972). Adults emerge from early July to late August, and eggs, which are deposited on the upper sides of corn leaves, hatch in approximately I week. The newly …

Iron Requirement Of Pigs Farrowed In Metal Farrowing Stalls, Rebecca Walker

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Pigs farrowed and reared in metal farrowing stalls were studied to determine the need for iron. Three treatments were studied, namely—T-O (pigs given no iron injection), T-1 (pigs given 1 iron-dextran injection at 2 days of age) and T-2 (pigs given 2 injections of iron-dextran, the first at day 2 and the second at day 7). Hemoglobin levels were analyzed to determine the incorporation of iron in the bloodstream in the form of hemoglobin. Pig weights were used as a measure of production.

The hemoglobin levels did not differ (p>0.1) among the 3 treatments at birth, 4 days, 6 …
