Organic Blueberry Production Systems – Grower Practices and Impact on Plant Nutrient Concentration, Content, and Biomass

Creator:: Fernandez Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The certified organic blueberry (Vaccinium sp.) market has continued to expand in the last two decades, including in Oregon. The development of an industry-public research coalition has fostered expansion. In 2015, a survey consisting of on-site, in-person interviews with certified and transitional organic growers in Oregon found the majority of...

Weed Management, Training, and Irrigation Practices for Organic Production of Trailing Blackberry : Plant Growth, Yield, and Nutrients

Creator:: Dixon, Emily K.
Abstract:: There is limited information available on production of trailing blackberry, particularly certified organic plantings, which are of interest to growers as there is increased consumer demand and a price premium over conventionally-produced fruit. Various production strategies were evaluated for their effect on yield, biomass production, carbon (C), and nutrient concentrations...

Nutrient management of blackberry cultivars grown in organic production systems

Creator:: Fernandez-Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The impact of fertilizer source and cultivar on growth, fruit quality, and yield was evaluated in organic blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson) from 2011-2013 in three studies. In all studies, plants were drip irrigated, and weeds were managed using a woven polypropylene, permeable landscape fabric (weed mat). At a...

Weed, water, and nutrient management practices for organic blackberry during establishment

Creator:: Harkins, Renee H.
Abstract:: The study was conducted in an organic trailing blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus, Watson) planting established at the North Willamette Research and Extension Center in Aurora, OR on 26 May 2010. Three weed management systems were compared for 'Marion' and 'Black Diamond': 1) non-weeded; 2) hand-hoed two to three times...

Effect of floricane number on primocane growth, yield components, and cold hardiness in 'Marion' trailing blackberry

Creator:: Cortell, Jessica M.
Abstract:: In spring of 1993 and 1994, mature 'Marion' (Rubus sp.) plants were pruned to 0, 4, 8, and 12 floricanes. An additional treatment of 0 floricanes with early (30 cm) primocane pruning was included. Primocane growth was measured from emergence in April until growth cessation at the end of October....

Effect of planting method, weed management, and fertilizer on plant growth and yield of newly established organic highbush blueberries

Creator:: Larco, Handell O.
Abstract:: A 0.4 ha planting of blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) was established in Oct. 2006 to evaluate the effects of cultivar (Duke and Liberty), planting method (flat versus raised beds), weed management (sawdust mulch and hand-weed control; compost plus sawdust mulch with acetic acid, flaming, and hand-weeding used as needed; and...

Primocane-fruiting blackberries : the effect of summer-pruning, tipping, and chilling on primocane morphology, fruiting season, and yield

Creator:: Thompson, Ellen
Abstract:: The effect of primocane management on flowering and fruiting patterns was studied in primocane-fruiting blackberry (Rubus subgenus Rubus, Watson) cultivars 'Prime-Jan'® and 'Prime-Jim'® over two years. Primocanes that were "soft-tipped" (upper 2-5 cm removed) at 1.0 m were compared to un-tipped canes. In both years, soft-tipped primocanes developed 2-3 fold...

The effect of pre-plant incorporation with sawdust, sawdust mulch, and nitrogen fertilizer rate on soil properties and nitrogen uptake and growth of 'Elliott' highbush blueberry

Creator:: White, Linda D. (Linda Dee)
Abstract:: The effect of incorporated sawdust, sawdust mulch and nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate on soil nutrients and other properties, N uptake, and plant growth in a young blueberry planting on a silt loam soil type was studied in 2004 and 2005. ‘Elliott’ highbush blueberry plants were established on raised beds that...

Investigation of postharvest quality and storability of hardy kiwifruit (Actinidia arguta 'Ananasnaya')

Creator:: Landis Fisk, Connie
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of harvest maturity, packaging, and storage conditions on subsequent fruit quality of Actinidia arguta ‘Ananasnaya’ and to investigate the use of edible coatings to improve fruit quality and storage life. The influences of harvest maturity (6.0, 8.7, 9.1, and 15.1%...
