Agronomy, Horticulture and Plant Science Faculty Publications

Field experiments, conducted from 1991 to 1994, generated information on weed seedbank emergence for 22 site-years from Ohio to Colorado and Minnesota to Missouri. Early spring seedbank densities were estimated through direct extraction of viable seeds from soil cores. Emerged seedlings were recorded periodically, as were daily values for air and soil temperature, and precipitation. Percentages of weed seedbanks that emerged as seedlings were calculated from seedbank and seedling data for each species, and relationships between seedbank emergence and microclimatic variables were sought. Fifteen species were found in 3 or more site-years. Average emergence percentages (and coefficients of variation) of …

Ec97-825 Pinto And Great Northern Bean Prices: Historical Trends And Seasonal Patterns, Chyi-Lyi (Kathleen) Liang, Dillon M. Feuz, R.G. Taylor

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Dry edible beans, while not a major crop nationally, are an important crop in the Nebraska Panhandle and scattered regions in Colorado, California, Idaho, Michigan, North Dakota, and Wyoming. Lacking widespread cultivation and national prominence as a cash crop, edible bean prices receive little national attention.

The goal of this extension circular is to provide a basic price analysis for Pinto and Great Northern beans, and to show what happened in their prices over time.
