Over 50 fertilizer experiments on winter wheat have been conducted in Baker, Union, and Wallowa counties since 1957. Results of these experiments indicate that nitrogen and moisture are the main factors limiting wheat production in this area.
Fertilizer experiments have been conducted in northeastern Oregon on fine fescue since 1958. The following recommendations are based on these experiments and on observations of farm fields.
Aerial application of fosamine ammonium or glyphosate at moderate rates was not adequate for controlling understory brush before final harvesting of mature Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stands or for reducing vigor of post-harvest sprouting. Symptoms of herbicide injury were those associated with low application rates, suggesting that the canopy intercepted too...
Contamination of newly planted bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) varieties by undesirable off-type bermudagrass genotypes is an
ever increasing concern for turf managers because selective control options are limited. In 2009, a sethoxydim {2-[1-(ethoxyimino)butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one} tolerant bermudagrass genotype (93-175) was identified during
herbicide screening at the University of Georgia in Tifton. The objective...
At global and regional scales, tree mortality rates are positively correlated with forest net primary productivity (NPP). Yet causes of the correlation are unknown, in spite of potentially profound implications for our understanding of environmental controls of forest structure and dynamics and, more generally, our understanding of broad-scale environmental controls...
