Estimating the dry matter production, nitrogen requirements, and yield of organic farm-grown potatoes

Creator:

McQueen, John Paul Gainer

Abstract:

As part of a participatory research project, where farmers and Oregon State University researchers collaborated, aspects of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) growing systems were studied. It was determined through conversations with the farmers that quantification of certain growth parameters of potato was lacking, including dry matter accumulation, crop nitrogen (N)...

Changes in grain quality and grain protein composition of winter wheat cultivars under different levels of soil nitrogen and water stress

Creator:

Saint Pierre, Carolina

Abstract:

Hard white winter (HVVW) wheat cultivars must have superior protein quality and consistent processing quality to be successful in the Asian market. New cultivars and management strategies are needed to produce HVVW grain for both bread and noodle applications from diverse environments in the US Pacific Northwest (PNW). This study...
