Herbicide Evaluation In Arkansas Cotton, 1999, Marilyn Mcclelland, Jim Barrentine, Ken Smith, Nilda Burgos
Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series
Herbicidal weed control is economically important for production of cotton. Field experiments are conducted annually in Arkansas to evaluate the activity of developmental and commercial herbicides for selective control of weeds in cotton. These experiments serve both industry and Arkansas agriculture by providing information on the selectivity of herbicides still in the developmental stage and by comparing the activity of these new herbicides with that of recommended herbicides.

Growing Lavender In Western Australia, Aileen Reid
Growing Lavender In Western Australia, Aileen Reid
Bulletins 4000 -
Lavender oil is an essential oil, derived from plants (genus Lavendulai primarily by steam distillation of the flowers. There are several types of lavender oil. The 'true' lavender oil, and the most highly prized, comes from Lavendula augustifolia; it is primarily used in the fragrance and perfume industry. World production is about 200 tonnes per year. Spike lavender oil, derived from Lavendula latifolia, has a world production of about 150-200 tonnes per year. Lavandin oil is derived from hybrids of L. augustifolia x L. latifolia that yield much higher than L. augustifolia but the oil is lower quality, hence it …

Pb1649-Commercial Tall Fescue-Kentucky Bluegrass Sod Production, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Commercial Horticulture
Many Tennessee farmers, facing narrow profit margins and increasing price risk, are considering new or alternative crop enterprises. New crop enterprises are most successful if they make effective use of existing resources; are adapted to the local environment, soils and climate; and if they serve a market that is well-defined and expanding. Turfgrass sod production is one crop enterprise that may meet these criteria.
A sod production program is founded on agronomic principles. While corn, soybean and wheat production practices often result in increased grain yield, effective sod production results in healthy, dense vegetation free of most troublesome turfgrass pests. …

Sp307-G-Protecting Fruit Trees From Winter Injury, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Sp307-G-Protecting Fruit Trees From Winter Injury, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Commercial Horticulture
Winter freeze damage, also called Southeast trunk injury, can be a problem for young fruit trees growing in Tennessee. This damage can occur on sunny winter days even though temperatures may be quite low. Sunlight striking the tree trunk may raise the temperature of the bark on the lower trunk to 80 or 90 F. Cambial tissue under the bark will lose hardiness. When the sun goes down, trunk temperatures will drop to the same temperature as the air. If this temperature drops below a critical point, these sensitive tissues will be injured or killed.
Grass Pasture Response To Water And Nitrogen, Robert W. Hill, Robert Newhall, Scott Williams, Brian Andrew
Grass Pasture Response To Water And Nitrogen, Robert W. Hill, Robert Newhall, Scott Williams, Brian Andrew
All Current Publications
The objective of this project is to study the response of pasture grass varieties to weather, irrigation and fertility in a field experimental plot at a high elevation. The water variable is accomplished with a line source sprinkler irrigation system. Two nitrogen fertility levels were imposed on two of the grass varieties

Horticultural Studies 1999, Michael D. Richardson, John R. Clark
Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series
Horticultural Studies 1999 is the second edition of a Research Series dedicated to horticultural programs in the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture and the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences. This publication summarizes research, extension, and educational activities that serve horticultural industries and interest groups in Arkansas. The goals of this publication are to provide relevant information to the growers and end-users of horticulture crops in Arkansas and to inform the citizens of Arkansas and the surrounding region of activities related to horticulture.

Arkansas Agriculture Situation And Outlook 2000, Bruce Ahrendsen, Eric Wailes, Bruce Dixon, H. L. Goodwin Jr., Tony Windham
Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series
Many farmers in Arkansas and other parts of the United States are experiencing financial stress. The purpose of this report is to highlight the situation of Arkansas farmers and to offer an outlook for 2000. The report emphasizes the production, price, income, financial, farmland value, and interest rate outlook for Arkansas farmers and considers the impact of the macroeconomy on agriculture. The contribution of poultry production to the Arkansas agricultural economy is also presented and analyzed.

Arkansas Cotton Variety Test 1999, Fred M. Bourland, N. R. Benson, J. M. Hornbeck, C. D. Capps Jr.
Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series
The primary aim of the Arkansas Cotton Variety Test is to provide unbiased data regarding the agronomic performance of cotton varieties in the major cotton growing areas in Arkansas. This information helps seed dealers establish marketing strategies and assists producers in choosing varieties to plant. In this way the annual test facilitates the inclusion of new, improved genetic material into Arkansas cotton production. The 1999 test had 67 entries (including 25 transgenic genotypes and 35 first-year entries), which were evaluated at sixsites in eastern Arkansas. The presence of four transgenic and five first-year entries among the top 10 yielding entries …
Field Evaluation Of Herbicides On Small Fruit, Vegetable, And Ornamental Crops, 1999, Ron E. Talbert, Lance A. Schmidt, Mike L. Lovelance, Eric F. Scherder
Field Evaluation Of Herbicides On Small Fruit, Vegetable, And Ornamental Crops, 1999, Ron E. Talbert, Lance A. Schmidt, Mike L. Lovelance, Eric F. Scherder
Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series
Growers generally use herbicides to efficiently produce high-quality fruit and vegetables for processing or fresh market sales. Because of the smaller acreage of these crops compared with major field crops, fewer herbicides are registered for use in fruit and vegetable crops than for field crops. Each year, new herbicides are evaluated under Arkansas growing conditions with the objective of improving the herbicide technology for the grower, processor, and ultimately the consumer. This report includes studies on the control of many of the more serious weed problems in important crops of this region, including snapbeans, spinach and other greens, southernpeas, tomatoes, …

Fork-Tailed Katydid Studies, David H. Headrick
Fork-Tailed Katydid Studies, David H. Headrick
Horticulture and Crop Science
The fork-tailed katydid, Scudderia furcata Brunner (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) was considered a minor pest of citrus in California, but in the last few years has increasingly become a problem due to reduction in organophosphate and carbamate pesticides (Grafton-Cardwell 1999). Our objective is to study the biology and behavior of the fork-tailed katydid as a pest of commercially grown citrus in order to develop ecologically-based control methods for application in commercial citrus production.

Determination Of Chilling Requirement Of Arkansas Thornless Blackberry Cultivars, Chrislyn A. Drake, John R. Clark
Determination Of Chilling Requirement Of Arkansas Thornless Blackberry Cultivars, Chrislyn A. Drake, John R. Clark
Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences
Little research has been done to determine the chilling requirement for blackberry cultivars. However, field observations from areas where fewer hours of chilling occur indicate that ‘Navaho’ requires more hours of chilling than does ‘Arapaho’. The objective of our study was to determine a method for measuring the chilling requirement using whole plants of two blackberry cultivars, Arapaho and Navaho. One-year old, bare-root plants were field-dug on 26 October 1999 and placed in a cold chamber at 3ºC. Ten single-plant replications of each cultivar were removed at 100-hour intervals up to 1000 hours. The plants were potted and placed in …
