Integrated Weed Management In Vegetable Crops
IWM is important for vegetable crops because of their high value, Scoutingvegetable crops is the foundation of a sound weed management program.
http://www.aces.uiuc.edu/ipm/fruits/iwm/iwm.html

Extractions: Integrated weed management (IWM) is an important component of a total integrated pest management program. IWM of vegetable crops combines a variety of approaches to suppress weeds and reduce herbicide use. IWM is important for vegetable crops because of their high value, intensive culture, and lack of competitiveness. Combining different weed management approaches reduces the dependence on chemical control and increases the likelihood that control will be successful. Scouting vegetable crops is the foundation of a sound weed management program. Scouting involves walking fields and identifying and counting weeds. Scouting defines the scope of the problem and allows the best management practices to be selected. Number of weeds, species present, and their locations are important. Note the dominant species along with uncommon or perennial weeds. The management strategies you adopt must control the dominant species while preventing the spread of uncommon weeds. Perennial weeds in vegetable crops should be controlled at early stages of infestation. Uncommon weeds in a field might become future weed control problems. Weeds generally occur in patches. By mapping the location of these patches, you can concentrate management efforts to problem areas. Scouting vegetable crops over a series of years provides an understanding of how weed populations shift over time and how they respond to management practices.

Extractions: Released by Darbie Granberry and Terry Kelley, Extension horticulturists. Retail or direct marketing at farmer's markets, roadside markets, stands and pick-your-own farms is an important and growing method of marketing fresh fruits and vegetables in Georgia. However, many of the containers used in the wholesale trade are not practical for direct marketing to consumers who desire fruits and vegetables in small quantities. The retail marketer has the option of selling his product in small volume containers or by count when scales are unavailable.

Eating the 12 most contaminated fruits and vegetables will expose a Others areformulated to bind to the surface of the crop and do not easily wash off.
http://www.foodnews.org/reportcard.php

Extractions: Adjusting your eating habits can lower your intake of pesticides sometimes dramatically so. Substitute organic for conventional produce that is consistently contaminated with pesticides. When organic is not available, eat fruits and vegetables with consistently low pesticide loads. An EWG simulation of thousands of consumers eating high and low pesticide diets shows that people can lower their pesticide exposure by 90 percent by avoiding the top twelve most contaminated fruits and vegetables and eating the least contaminated instead. Eating the 12 most contaminated fruits and vegetables will expose a person to nearly 20 pesticides per day, on average. Eating the 12 least contaminated will expose a person to a fraction over 2 pesticides per day. Less dramatic comparisons will produce less dramatic reductions, but without doubt using the Guide provides people with a way to make choices that lower pesticide exposure in the diet. Most Contaminated: The Dirty Dozen Consistent with two previous EWG investigations, fruits topped the list of the consistently most contaminated fruits and vegetables, with eight of the 12 most contaminated foods. Among the top six were four fruits, with peaches leading the list, then strawberries, apples and nectarines. Pears, cherries, red raspberries, and imported grapes were the other four fruits in the top 12. Among these eight fruits:
Potential For Vegetables During The Strawberry Season
Virginia Vegetable, Small Fruit and Specialty crops JanuaryFebruary 2004; Volume3, Issue 1. Tony Bratsch, Extension Specialist, Department of Horticulture
http://www.ext.vt.edu/news/periodicals/commhort/pulledarticles/january04-2.html

Extractions: The potential of bringing early vegetable crop sales into the strawberry season is a marketing opportunity worth considering. It makes sense to have early season vegetable crops available as customers come out for the first strawberries of the season. Promotion of the nutritional aspects of fresh fruits and vegetables such as the '5 a day' campaign has led to increased consumer interest in eating right, and direct marketers are uniquely situated to meet these needs with fresh, flavorful, locally grown produce. Strawberries are known as a "power" item in direct marketing terminology, and will draw customers from large distances to purchase or u-pick the first fruits of the season. Having fresh vegetables available during strawberry harvest season adds variety and selection for these customers. The addition of vegetables to the marketing mix is a way to increase dollars per sale and net income. Making the Decision to Diversify: Are spring vegetables right for your situation? There are a number of factors to consider when deciding to diversify and add new crops to an already established strawberry operation.

Bio-8--Genetically Engineered Fruits And Vegetables
Today, genetic engineering may enhance the vegetables and fruits they see on Some fear that a foreign gene may not behave in a new crop the way it did
http://www.biotech.iastate.edu/biotech_info_series/bio8.html

Extractions: Note to the reader: Most genetically engineered fruits and vegetables have not received final approval for marketing from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at this time. This publication is designed to explain the science of genetically engineered fruits and vegetables, not to give the perception of pre-approval endorsement by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or by the publishing state. Genetic (recombinant DNA) engineering is the manipulation of DNA molecules to produce modified plants, animals, or other organisms. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a double-stranded molecule that is present in every cell of an organism and contains the hereditary information that passes from parents to offspring. This hereditary information is contained in individual units or sections of DNA called genes. The genes that are passed from parent to offspring determine the traits that the offspring will have. Through the work of the last 20 years, scientists can now isolate the gene or genes for the traits they want in one animal or plant and move them into another. It is not really that simple, since some traits involve more than one gene and some genes are hard to find. Nevertheless, each year scientists are learning better ways to locate and transfer genes.
Leopold Center - Iowa Farmers Turn To Fruit, Vegetable Crops - Fall 2002 Newslet
Farmers are growing a wider variety of fruit and vegetable crops. Twenty of the23 common vegetables in the survey were grown by more farmers.
http://www.leopold.iastate.edu/pubs/nwl/2002/2002-3-leoletter/crops.htm

Extractions: An increasing number of Iowa farmers are growing fruits and vegetables, according to results of the latest survey of commercial producers from the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship (IDALS). Nearly 500 growers reported selling vegetables during the 2000 crop year, accounting for more than 8,400 acres of vegetable production that resulted in $15.9 million in sales. Nearly 300 growers reported selling fruits, berries and nuts during the 2000 crop year, accounting for more than 1,600 acres of fruit production that resulted in $3.8 million in sales. By far the most popular venue for fruit and vegetable sales is at farmers markets. The survey showed that nearly two-thirds of all growers sell at farmers markets. Iowa is number one in the nation per capita for farmers' markets, and fifth in the nation in the number of new markets established. The survey was conducted in the spring of 2001, the first since 1989. It was funded by IDALS and with grants from the Leopold Center, Iowa Farm Bureau and the Iowa Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association. Results were published July 2002 and released in September. Other findings: Farmers are growing a wider variety of fruit and vegetable crops. Twenty of the 23 common vegetables in the survey were grown by more farmers.

Now, They Are Spraying Crops With MSG
If you think it s wrong to spray MSG on fruit and vegetable crops, please registeryour concern by contacting Dr. Lynn Goldman at the EPA at the address or
http://www.aspartame.com/msgoncrops.html

Extractions: GO TO PRESS RELEASE NOW, THEY ARE SPRAYING CROPS WITH MSG A product containing a substantial amount of processed free glutamic acid (MSG) has been approved for use as a "growth enhancer" spray for use on agricultural products. Approximately 30 per cent of the product is MSG. The action is summarized in the press release that follows. MSG is known to trigger migraine headache, tachycardia, arrhythmia, seizures, asthma, nausea and vomiting, hives, skin rash, anxiety attacks, depression and much, much more in people who have become sensitive to it. It causes gross obesity and learning disorders in laboratory animals that ingest it when young. You can read about what it is, what it does, and where it's hidden in food on our Web site: http://www.truthinlabeling.org . But now that spraying MSG ON agricultural products as they grow has been approved, ANY fresh food may have some residual MSG on it, and processed food made from fresh fruit or vegetables may have MSG in it, too. Baby food, largely free of MSG since the late 1970's, will now have MSG in it. Processed food will now have more MSG in it than it did before. And there may be MSG residue on every tomato, cucumber, strawberry, leaf of lettuce, or peanut that you eat, as well as on every other fresh fruit, grain or vegetable. We think you should be concerned. This is a new EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) approval, effective February 6, 1998. We are asking that the approval be rescinded. Being told by the EPA that it is OUR responsibility to demonstrate that residue from spraying MSG on produce while it's growing is a potential health hazard, and interpreting that to mean that the EPA will not look into the matter without extreme pressure, we have provided them more than sufficient material to demonstrate the MSG places humans at risk. We have also written to the producer, Auxein Corporation, informing them that their product is potentially toxic, and asking them to withdraw it from the market.
