The objectives of these experiments were to determine
the feasibility of saving seed from snap bean fields in the
Willamette Valley that have been bypassed for canning and
freezing, and to study the effects of different seed production
methods on yield and quality of snap bean (Phaseolus
vulgaris L.).

In previous years, at Corvallis, yields of bush snap beans
varied among planting dates. In order to obtain additional information
on the effect of planting dates on the growth, development and
yield of snap beans, four field plantings and two greenhouse plantings
of the variety O.S.U. 2051 were made.
Results...
Yield reductions due to competition of weeds with crop plants
can be extremely important. Early weed competition can be as important
in reducing crop yield as weed competition for the entire
season.
The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the weed
control achieved by narrow row-cropping patterns, (2)...

The effects of modifying air temperature, soil temperature,
and soil moisture levels on flowering, fruiting, and chemical composition
of Tendercrop snap beans were studied in experiments in
the field and in the greenhouse during 1961, 1962, and 1963.
High maximum temperatures of 95-105° F. during bloom reduced
the percent set...
