SUMMARY
Both Impact and Laudis are effective grass killers. The weed control spectrum of these herbicides was enhanced by the addition of atrazine. Both are weak on purslane.
The data from the Stayton I experiment with Coho sweet corn suggest that corn yield may have been reduced by as much...
Mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases are not completely understood in humans. Studying model organisms like Drosophila melanogaster, also known as the common fruit fly, can help humans better understand the aging process and diseases related to aging. From previous studies demonstrated in Drosophila, an accelerated aging model has been...
Results from vegetation management trials involving horticultural crops conducted during the past year are compiled and reported by faculty members of the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station, the Oregon State Extension Service, and colleagues who cooperated from adjacent states along with local enterprises. This work was conducted throughout Oregon and involved...
Crops were grown at the experimental farms using accepted cultural practices (within the limits of experimentation) or trials were conducted on growers' fields. Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with three to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with CO₂ precision plot sprayers. Unless otherwise indicated, preplant...

The goal of this project was to develop and test non-herbicidal techniques that remove nonnative
plant or weed seeds from the top 2 inches of the soil. The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is
currently restoring prairies in the Willamette Valley. Some areas of the Pacific Northwest have
already seen loss of...
Weeds in snap beans drag down yield and contaminate products sent to processors or markets. They may even make it impossible to harvest the crop mechanically. It is worth the effort to be proactive when managing weeds in row crops. Proactive rather than reactive approaches are essential to successful management...
