  • Grass seed quality in relation to time of windrowing

    Creator:
    Dübbern de Souza, Francisco Humberto
    Abstract:
    This study was undertaken to obtain information on the quality of grass seed when windrowed at the high moisture levels necessary for obtaining maximum yields. A secondary goal was to monitor moisture and temperature fluctuations in the windrow and to relate their effects to development and deterioration of the seed....

  • Establishment of grass seed crops with cereal companion crops

    Creator:
    DeHaas, Jeroen A. M.
    Abstract:
    In conventional cropping systems in the Willamette Valley, slow establishing grass species, such as Kentucky bluegrass (Poapratensis L.) are planted in the spring and seed is not harvested until the following year. Due to increasing annual production costs, it is necessary to generate a cash return from each field each...

  • Development of oven and Karl Fischer techniques for moisture testing of grass seeds

    Creator:
    Benjamin, Ethan
    Abstract:
    Seed moisture is a primary factor influencing seed quality during harvesting, storage, and marketing of grass seed. However, the Association of Official Seed Analysts' Rules for Testing Seeds do not contain methods for moisture testing. The oven methods in use by seed testing laboratories in the U.S. are diverse and...
