Oregon State University researchers are expanding their study of mineral nutrition in winegrapes as part of a project sponsored by the Wine Advisory Board. Further research is justified because of increasing grower interest in nutritional factors that affect production and quality. Winegrape growers utilize Oregon State University's Plant Analysis Laboratory...

Between October 2016 and October 2017, four regional meetings were held around the United States between small and very small meat processors, high-ranking USDA Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) officials, and other local meat sector stakeholders and support organizations. The purpose of the meetings was for FSIS officials to tour...
The market for organic vegetables is increasing. As conventional farmers transition fields to organics to meet this demand, there is a need for better organic nutrient management guidance, especially for nitrogen (N). Organic N management is more challenging than conventional N management due to a higher level of uncertainty surrounding...
Although Oregon is the #2 snap bean producer in the US, yield of snap beans per acre is greater in Oregon than any other state (USDA NASS 2012). Despite the scale and importance of snap bean production in Oregon, almost no research has been done on phosphorus (P) utilization over...
Research reported here was done by or in collaboration with the people listed on each report. In most cases, a landowner cooperated as well. Each study was conducted over a 2-year period because first-year control of perennial weeds is not necessarily indicative of long term control.
Forty perennial and 12 annual grass varieties were evaluated for seed production potential at Corvallis, Oregon. Perennial ryegrass, orchardgrass, Kentucky bluegrass, red fescue, Chewings fescue, tall fescue, and annual ryegrass were included in the study. Results of 1986 and 1987 harvest years are reported.
During the 1994 growing season, 1,998 dormant wine and table grape cuttings and 2,552 mist propagated plants were distributed to 33 growers from the OSU Mother Block. Sixteen new clones were added to the Mother Block in early spring. This included rootstock, wine and table grape cultivars. The trellising system...
