Midwest Vegetable Trial Report For 2016, Elizabeth Maynard, Brad Bergefurd Jan 2017

Midwest Vegetable Trial Report For 2016, Elizabeth Maynard, Brad Bergefurd

Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports

This is a compilation of 21 research trial reports from six land-grant universities in the midwestern United States. Crops include dry beans, cantaloupe, cucumber, pepper, pumpkin, sweet corn, summer squash, winter squash, strawberry, tomato, watermelon, and winter melon. Several crops were evaluated in high tunnels or hoop houses. Most trials evaluated different cultivars or varieties. Three reports addressed specific growing practices: the use of poly-coated urea to supply nitrogen to sweet corn, potassium fertilization for high tunnel tomatoes, and use of cereal rye cover crop in butternut squash.
