Several rates of P and S separately and together were applied to established grass-subclover pastures in six western Oregon counties. Soil and plant analyses were made in order to determine their value as a means of predicting whether or not P actually was needed and, if so, the amount or...

Red clover is an important seed and forage crop in western Oregon. Lime, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, and boron will increase yields under some western Oregon soil conditions. The need for nutrients other than sulfur can be estimated using a soil test. Red clover is best adapted to well-drained soils. Good...
Four sampling techniques were evaluated to estimate clover aphid, Nearctaphis bakeri
(Cowen), abundance in red clover fields in the Willamette Valley. The Berlese funnel method
detected one to four times more aphids than other sampling techniques. Visual assessment
often underestimated the high aphid densities during the flowering and seeding of...
A seed maturation study was conducted to determine the earliest
date seed of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) may be
safely harvested without reduction in yield or seed quality. In 1981
and 1982, seed and bur weight, seed and bur moisture content, germination and seedling vigor were studied to determine...

Small broomrape (Orobanche minor) is a parasitic weed that attaches to the roots of red clover (Trifolium pratense). Small broomrape invasion presents a significant threat to the future of red clover seed production in Oregon. This study was conducted to investigate and develop small broomrape management options for red clover...
