A Research Study Of Lamb Feeding In Winter Dry Lots At Monroe, Utah, 1928-29, George R. Henderson May 1930

A Research Study Of Lamb Feeding In Winter Dry Lots At Monroe, Utah, 1928-29, George R. Henderson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

By reason of the topography of the land, Utah is and probably will remain a livestock grazing state. As far as agriculture is concerned over 90 percent of the area is suitable for grazing only. This grazing range is used by cattle and sheep.

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten Sep 1926

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten

Aspen Bibliography

Stockmen in the West have always had confidence in the adequacy of the native forage crop to provide pasturage for their livestock. Indeed, under normal climatic conditions this enormous natural resource has not failed the grazier, except where it has been called upon to meet unreasonable demands. The productivity of the range has declined sharply, however, wherever the requirements of plant growth have been disregarded for many years in succession. Where there has been too early or too frequent and to heavy grazing, undue trampling, or some other unsatisfactory feature of range use, the results have been uniformly bad. Many …

Correlation Studies In Wheat, Joseph Reed May 1926

Correlation Studies In Wheat, Joseph Reed

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Considerable work has been done by plant breeders and investigators in the study of individual plant characters, but only a few have attempted to work out correlations between characters in crop plants. One reason for this seems to be, that many investigators have felt that correlation studies were of very little practical value. This attitude was due perhaps to the interpretation given correlation data, especially the nature of the casual agency or agencies to which the correlation was attributed. Most of our plant breeders however, have been too busy working on experiments with single characters and have given little or …

Effect Of Root-Rot Upon Sugar-Beet Seed Production, Louis F. Nuffer May 1923

Effect Of Root-Rot Upon Sugar-Beet Seed Production, Louis F. Nuffer

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Due to considerable loss through root-rot of mother beets while in storage during the winter of 1918-1919 the Amalgamated Sugar Company asked advice in regard to planting beets which had decay lesions on them. Would the beets yield seed if planted? How much seed would these beets yield as compared with healthy beets? Would the seed produced be injured by having been grown on decayed beets? It was felt that an experiment carried out with the above questions in view would bring out many facts upon which to base conclusions in answering the questions of the Sugar Company.

Climate And Plant Growth In Certain Vegetative Associations, Arthur W. Sampson Oct 1918

Climate And Plant Growth In Certain Vegetative Associations, Arthur W. Sampson

Aspen Bibliography

The relation of climate to the growth and development of vegetation is of profound importance in both practical and experimental agriculture. It is extremely useful to know the cause of successful growth and establishment, or of partial success or failure, of various species in different plant associations and under widely contrasted climatic conditions. The climatic requirements of various plant types are largely responsible for the results obtained in the case of experimental seedings and plantings of most species. Once the adverse climatic factors are definitely known, failures with plants may be largely avoided by the judicious selection of sites or …
