Abstract:: Oregon sweet corn growers face high fertilizer, fuel and weed control costs; soil compaction, erosion, organic matter and nutrient depletion; and difficult equipment operations in muddy fields. An alternative production system might ease some of these problems. Testing was begun to evaluate a living-mulch cropping system for sweet corn (Zea...

Abstract:: Field studies were started at Hyslop Farm, Corvallis, Oregon in 1984 to determine the soil persistence of the herbicide clopyralid (3,6-dichloropicolinic acid) under cropping situations. The herbicide was sprayed on bare soil at the proposed use rate of 0.14 kg/ha in the spring and on the same plots at a...

Creator:: Peterman, Mark K.
Abstract:: Soil-related problems common to Oregon farmers are erosion, compaction, organic matter depletion, and nutrient loss. High costs of fertilizer, fuel, and weed control are additional management problems. Growing a secondary crop as a living mulch with a primary crop may ease some of these problems. Sweet corn production in Oregon...

Abstract:: The response to glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine] of two dodder species Cuscuta campestris Yuncker (field dodder) and Cuscuta indecora Chiosy (largeseed dodder) parasitizing alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) was compared. In the absence of glyphosate, alfalfa was killed or severely injured by parasitism from uncontrolled dodder. Results of field experiments in which...

Creator:: Neumeister, John H.
Abstract:: Sod-seeding techniques offer graziers a convenient way to introduce superior grass cultivars into underproductive permanent pastures. Production loss and erosion are minimized. In conjunction with improved grazing management and fertilization, renovation can significantly improve yield and quality of pastures. Existent vegetation must be suppressed prior to introducing new cultivars. This...

Creator:: Fitzsimmons, James P.
Abstract:: No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...
