Several herbicides were evaluated for selective weed control in sweet corn in 1961. Various methods of application were compared and a comparison of planting depths was made to determine possible interactive effects with Eptam applications
Laboratory incubation studies and field studies with sweet corn
and onions were undertaken to evaluate interactions of lime,
phosphorus (P), and copper (Cu). Eight soils were incubated at a
constant temperature of 21 °C with combinations of band placed
monocalcium phosphate (MCP), ammonium sulfate (AmS), and copper
sulfate pentahydrate (CSPH)...
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...
