With the loss of field burning the amount of crop residue that remains in perennial ryegrass fields has increased. As the amount of crop residue remaining in the field increases so does annual bluegrass. This has resulted in the increased use of herbicides to control annual bluegrass. However, this increased...
Miombo woodland and dambo grassland soils were selected to study the effect of soil transfer on early growth of B. petersiana, C. spectabilis, and C. calothyrsus on degraded sites in northern Zambia. The experiment was conducted on previously slash and burned, cultivated, and abandoned sites. Both sterile and unsterile miombo...
Seedlings of Acacia senegal were grown in a glass greenhouse to study the effect of nitrogen and irrigation regimes on dry matter
production and allocation to different plant organs, net photosynthesis per unit leaf area, and nitrogen content in the different plant organs. Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) was used in this...
Salal is plant species that is native to forestland throughout the PNW and northern California that has been identified as a competitor to early crop tree development. This study consisted of a field and a radioisotope laboratory study to test four commonly used herbicides on salal (imazapyr, triclopyr, glyphosate, and...
