Zebra Chip (ZC) was confirmed in the Columbia Basin potato production area of Oregon and Washington in 2011. This is a serious disease first documented in Saltillo, Mexico in 1994. In 2000 the disease was identified in South Texas and since then, ZC has been reported in Arizona, California, Colorado,...
Freshwater resources are becoming more and more scarce worldwide, and rights to water use is becoming more competitive between stakeholders. Irrigation for agricultural purposes accounts for a large portion of freshwater usage. Using drought tolerant plant species in irrigated pastures could become a necessity in order to reduce competition for...
Since its inception in 1985, the Tri‐State variety development program has primarily focused on the development of processing and dual‐purpose (process and fresh) russets. Recent breeding efforts have focused more on improving genetic resistance to various pests and diseases as a means of lowering production costs. During the past decade,...

The agronomy research program at OSU-KBREC has several objectives. We continue to test traditional crops such as small grains (wheat and barley), forages (alfalfa and grass hay), new forage and niche grain crops (i.e. teff), and crop production practices for these crops (i.e. conventional and organic soil fertility methods), evaluating...
The recent increase in energy prices and political instability in the Middle East has sparked renewed interest in alternative energy sources and technologies both locally and nationally. Biodiesel is an appealing transportation fuel source for many reasons: it readily substitutes for petroleum diesel, it tends to burn cleaner with fewer...
Euphorbia lagascae (Euphorbiaceae- ‘spurge family’) has been recognized as one of the more promising potential new industrial crops for the drier regions in the temperate zone
(Roseberg, 1996). In the late 1950s and early 1960s the USDA analyzed many plant species in search of novel chemical compounds. They first recognized...

Grain is produced on upwards of 100,000 acres in the Klamath Basin including nearly 50,000 acres within the Klamath Reclamation Project. Susceptibility to late spring frost has historically limited winter cereal production and spring cereals have accounted for the majority of production. Klamath Basin Research & Extension Center (KBREC) cereal...

Concerns were raised about loss of soil from wind erosion with the announcement in early 2010 that most Klamath Reclamation Project water users would receive a delayed and reduced rate of irrigation water during the 2010 growing season, with some areas potentially receiving no irrigation water for the entire season....
