Abstract:

Several field, greenhouse, and laboratory studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of vermicomposted (VC) hog manure amended to pine bark (PB) on substrate physical properties, plant growth and flower production, water use efficiency of productivity (WUEP), effluent nitrogen and phosphorus content, substrate solution pH, macronutrient release rate characteristics, and the ability of VC to replace conventional fertilizer nutrient inputs. Nitrogen and phosphorus budgets were determined, and nutrient use efficiencies of nitrogen (NUEN) and phosphorus (NUEP) were calculated. Container capaci

Thesis (MScAgric)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Poor water management and poor water use efficiency (WUE) have been identified as one of the major problems experienced by vegetable growers in most of the developing countries, including South Africa. This poor management and poor utilization of water have led to a drastic decline in the quality and quantity of available water. In South Africa agriculture uses about 50% of available water. Increasing water demand for domestic, industrial and mining uses, may decrease agriculture's share to less than the current 5

Abstract:

Combining the environmentally sound practices of reduced tillage and cover crop use with organic vegetable production systems requires management choices that are tailored to specific climate and crop combinations. In the southeastern U.S. summer cover crops can be grown through the fall until desiccation by frost. At this time a cash crop such as bulb onions (Allium cepa L.) can be grown using reduced tillage for over winter production.

Abstract:

The purpose of this research was to adapt the PourThru nutrient extraction technique, which is the displacement of the bulk solution from the production container without a destructive harvest, to commercial greenhouse crop production. PourThru is a quick and easy nutrient sampling technique that is not laboratory oriented and can help prevent costly nutritional problems for greenhouse crop producers. Additionally, time domain reflectometry (TDR) was evaluated as an experimental tool to measure substrate moisture content, which may affect PourThru extraction. Time domain reflectometry is quick

The demand for locally sourced hops from Northeastern microbreweries began the recent resurgence in local hop production. The farming community has increased acreage and improved the quality of hops grown and processed in the Northeast region over the past five years. There was a sharp increase in the number of Northeast hop producers from six in 2009 to over 175 in 2014. Hop growers in the Northeast are new to the crop and have limited experience with pest identification and management.
