A series of studies during six years examined vegetative growth and fruit yield of the 'Olympus' strawberry when grown with black polyethylene mulch and drip irrigation. In some studies, plants were grown with or without mulch and irrigated at low, medium, or high levels for one or two months in...
We have conducted a full-time program of vegetable crop research at the North Willamette Research and Extension Center (formerly the North Willamette Experiment Station) since 1976. The Center, a branch of both Oregon State University's Agricultural Experiment Station and its Extension Service, is just north of Aurora, a historic farming...
Fertilizer recommendations in this guide are based on the use of well-adapted varieties and disease free plants, selection of suitable soils, disease and insect control, weed control, and proper irrigation. Application of these management practices is essential to realize optimum fertilizer response.
Strawberries respond to generous amounts of soil organic...
Several triazine herbicides were evaluated during the fall of 1967 and the spring and summer of 1958 on a variety of crop and week species to determine their potential selective and soil sterilant value.
A planting of three varieties of strawberries was made in the spring of 1959 with herbicide treatments designed to provide weed control through the normal life of the planting.
Much of the research effort with Dacthal in 1961 was based on obtaining samples for residue analysis. Crops in these tests included broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, onions and soybeans. Observations were made on crop response and weed control.
Several herbicides were evaluated for selective weed control in sweet corn in 1961. Various methods of application were compared and a comparison of planting depths was made to determine possible interactive effects with Eptam applications
Several new herbicides were compared with those presently being used in Oregon to control weeds in snap beans, red beets and new plantings of strawberries. The results of these tests are summarized in tabular form.

Crops were grown at the experimental farms using accepted cultural practices within the limits of experimentation or trials were conducted on growers' fields. Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with two to five replications. H8rbicide treatments were applied uniformly with equipment ranging from precision plot sprayers to quart...
