Extractions: North Dakota State University Expected Results Objectives and Rationale 1. Determine production of and yearling heifer performance from forages produced on traditional small grain crop land in the Northern Great Plains during late summer. 2. Determine if economic returns to crop land from growing forages and grazing cattle are competitive with returns from small grain production in the Northern Great Plains. Prices received for agricultural commodities are often low compared to the high costs of production. This results in relatively low net returns per acre for the amount of capital invested. Traditional cropping systems in the Northern Great Plains include continuous small grains or a small grain-fallow rotation. However as governmental control of agricultural production recedes, producers are being given greater flexibility in the development of unique farming plans. As producers contemplate possible cropping decisions, crop rotations involving annual forages are gaining in popularity among diversified operations that manage both crops and cattle enterprises. Annual forage production can provide a basis for establishing an integrated system between crop and cattle production. Annual forages offer crop producers a wider variety of alternative crops that can be included in a rotating crop sequence. In addition to diversified agricultural operations, when cattle and crops are produced in close proximity, local livestock can create a readily-available market for excess forage production.

Wild rice ( Zizania palustris L.) is native to North America and grows predominantly in the Great Lakes region. This large-seeded species, one of four species of wild rice, is in the grass family (Poaceae) and has been eaten by people since prehistoric times. Early North American inhabitants, especially the Ojibway, Menomini, and Cree tribes in the North Central region of the continent, used the grain as a staple food and introduced European fur traders to wild rice. Manomio, the name they gave wild rice, means good berry. Early English explorers called this aquatic plant wild rice or Indian rice, while the French saw a resemblance to oats and called it folle avoine. Other names given to wild rice include Canadian rice, squaw rice, water oats, blackbird oats, and marsh oats. However, the name "wild rice" persisted and today it is the common name for the genus Zizania , even though the wild type of rice ( Oryza ) is also called wild rice.
Fababean Fababeans A New Crop for Minnesota?- RG Robinson. 1968. misc. Grain Legumesas alternative crops. 1987. Proceedings of a symposium held July 23-24, http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/afcm/fababean.html
Extractions: Dept. of Agronomy and Plant Genetics, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, MN 55108. Nov. 1989. Fababean is an annual legume known botanically as Vicia faba L. The crop is known by many names, most of which refer to a particular subgroup rather than the whole species. Common names for fababean include the large-seeded broadbeans or windsorbeans ( Vicia faba var. major ), horsebeans ( Vicia Faba var. equina ), and the small, round-oval seeded tickbean or pigeon bean ( Vicia faba var. minor). The varieties grown in Manitoba are small to medium in seed size and belong to the minor and equina group. Fababeans are a versatile speciality crop that has proven itself to many Manitoba, Canada farmers in the past 15 years. In 1988 there was over 122,000 acres of fababeans produced in Manitoba. II.

Short-rotation woody crops (SRWC) and herbaceous crops (perennial grasses) are receiving increasing interest as potential alternative energy sources that also can provide extensive environmental benefits. These benefits can be viewed as occurring on a scale ranging from global (reductions in greenhouse gases) to a specific site (decreases in erosion and the need for chemicals compared with traditional row crops). When grown as biomass feedstocks, these woody and herbaceous crops can be significant sources of energy and fiber in some regions of the country. Besides offering an alternative energy resource, they can provide crop diversity and both economic and environmental benefits to local agricultural communities. The potential environmental benefits of short-rotation woody crops and herbaceous energy crops compared with traditional row crops include improved soil quality and stability (reduced erosion), cover for wildlife, and lower inputs of energy, water, and agrochemicals (
